Many people define that having a lot of money can make them happy, because anything to survive can involve money. but all of that of course from the point of view of one side of the upper middle class. Unlike the lower class people, they are able to interpret happiness by gathering with their families with fulfilled needs without having to have a lot of money

It's true that basically we can see money and happiness from different perspectives,
we can not only see from one perspective and what is clear is money is not everything but everything needs money,
I think as long as we have enough money to live it already makes us happy

There are people who are convince that having enough should have contentment in life.

those people who wants to live a simple life can find happiness without the influence of

money, they are happy having what they can afford and not to exceed to it, noteveryone

lean with their luxuries.

Lol, there are a few things that happiness can't buy with money and happiness can't measure by money. Even if you will say, give me 5 bitcoin and I'm happy for that, but for sure you will come back and ask for more.

I saw a blog a month ago regarding a rich man and ask, what makes him happy he had everything he wants. He simply replied, "I may look happy but there's something that I'm looking for to fulfill my happiness". So it means, human doesn't have contented with what they had, it doesn't mean you have a lot of money you are happy at all time.

Is there a truth that money can't buy you happiness? Sure there is, there are tons of unhappy rich people out there. But this has been basically a propaganda from the wealthy to make people who are poor think that they are always unhappy and somehow money is the cause. If you are unhappy then you are unhappy doesn't matter if you are rich or poor, it is not about the money, anyone can be unhappy from health reason, relationship reason, family reason and many other reasons, hell even psychology plays a big role in this and doctors could help you with it, anxiety and panic attacks do not care how rich or poor you are in the end.

However one thing is for sure, money could help you with it, if you are unhappy and have 100 dollars in your bank account it is going to be hard to overcome that, but if you have 100 million than it is an easier path that you can at least spend the money to find what can make you happy. So money DOES bring happiness if you are unhappy, it is not the cause of your unhappiness it s the cure.

Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks

Different people have different opinions with regards to this.
You might ask a poor and he might say "He is happy even though he is poor because he has something that makes her happy like for example his family or something important to him but not money"
You might ask a rich and he might say "He is happy right now because he has all the money that is needed to buy anything that makes her happy whether its a car or a house or even some things that only the rich people can buy".

In general, this 2 are somewhat connected but in reality it will depend on the person you will ask. I can be happy even though I'm poor because I still have some things that make me happy but at the same time I can also be happy when I'm rich because I can buy some things that I want.

I guess I know the exact and best answer regarding the relation between money and happiness. Not all the rich people are happy. If you didn't have enough money before, once you gain the money and get rich you will be happy but that's temporary and people will be depressed after a while. They usually try to do something fun and enjoyable with their money and sometimes they will do some donations to fade out the depressant, however, that's only temporary while deep inside their are still depressed.

so the point is that happiness is not eternal, what do you mean? Indeed, nothing lasts forever in this world, we don't even bring wealth or anything else with us when we die. So happiness is from which point of view we look at it is happiness..because the point of view of happiness and success is each person's.

i agree if happiness relate with how much money people have, but it cant apply by all people. there are many richman, but still get angry easily, and vice versa.
you know if simplicity make people happier, make people be grateful of life. and many of them try to help other people with its simplicity, to proof that happiness can landed easily like take a breath.

Money is like fuel that can power an engine that can help fulfill your desires and ultimately bring you happiness. But the concept of happiness is quite ephemeral and does not lend itself to strict accounting or measurement and is strictly individual for each person. History knows many cases when people gave up their jobs and careers or got rid of wealth and money because it did not bring them moral satisfaction and a sense of happiness. Happiness can bring a lot of things and the absolute majority of them are not directly related to money, so do not substitute the concepts of money and happiness.

thats why i said before if simplicity make people happy. not all, but many of them like and do somthing simple. and its not about money, but what act you give to the other person, which is lighten the burden of others person. and the older know more by experience, doesnt mean the younger dont know about it.
and doing passion that bring to your income is better than just work on big company.

everyone has a different opinion about happiness, some are happy even though they don't have a lot of money there are also those who are happy just having a lot of money.
for me, if we have money we will be able to get that happiness because by having money we can buy what we want so that we can make ourselves happy. without a lot of money maybe we can be happy but it will be even happier if we have a lot of money.

There is a popular opinion in the locale that "A man who has money doesn't easily get angry or offended, lol". This statement goes the other way as well, that "A man who doesn't have money is easily offended by everything and everyone".

I have put this statement on analysis a lot in mind, trying to watch my mood and correlate my happiness with the amount of money I have each time. Everytime it seems like i have overspent and almost becoming broke, there is a feeling of irritation and sadness that comes with it. Also when i get some credit alerts, there is an associated joy.

I know it is not proper to tie your happiness to finance, but i did some research into the subject and found a study that was conducted with the result that happiness increases with the amount of money one makes up until a point where there is no greater degree of happiness from making money, but unhappiness if ones income drops beneath that range.

(See study here - https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/20/how-much-money-you-need-to-be-happy-according-to-wealth-experts.html)

What is your opinion on the subject of "money & happiness"?

For me in my own word about on the subject Money is practically we need to be happy ,money is everything that every body blind on this, but beside that money can create crimes due that some criminal abuse it on stealing money. It was meaningful the word of happiness in money but in the back of that people ruined it. Therefore the happiness are different from money happiness, cause the real happiness are can not buy any treasures or value even we can not spend expensive money but we can spent our love in our love ones to make a real happiness that we always wanted.

Its just a matter of contentment. Even if you're somehow poor you can still be happy as long as theres air in your lungs,your family is complete, you still have food in your table then theres still reasons for you to be happy. You can also be sad even if youre completely rich. However another fact is that somehow people with money tends to have less problems and that makes them look happier.

With money the mankind won't get fulfillment. In my country movie stars were given much important. Most of the movie stars were common man who have reached high through their hard work.

When questioned about their happiness, to move as if a common man moves and do his routine. They weren't able to do it, because whenever they're visible to the world people gets gathered and it makes them apart from the common man. They might experience the richness of money, but they weren't able to live the life what they wish. This is how happiness differ from money same as in the above quote.

Happiness comes in different forms and sizes and the ones who can achieve happiness are not the ones who seek for it, but the ones who want it and will do anything for it. In the current modernized world we are currently in wherein people are living in materials surrounding us, money makes sense on making people happy because we can achieve almost anything and consider it to be our source of happiness. It still depends on the person if he will put it into his mind considering money as his source of happiness since there are people who still live happily even without money involved because they have another way of looking into what happiness means to them.

We live in a material world and, of course, we need money to satisfy our material needs. They say happiness is not in money, but in their quantity. If we do not have enough money, we sometimes have to get a job that does not bring us moral satisfaction, we have to live and work in worse conditions, poor quality food, not full rest, which ultimately affects our health. Well, in general, everyday problems with a lack of money take up a lot of time from us, which we could spend on spiritual development. Therefore, money is important for any person.

Indeed, it should not be hypocritical if everything requires money, both must be balanced, that does not mean money is not important. But money is a complement to happiness in my opinion. Happiness will be complete if it is accompanied by sufficient financial condition. Can balance everything.

I agree with you, the meaning in life is how we are grateful for what we have. If the measure is how much money to control one's emotions, of course this is difficult to measure. This all goes back to each individual, but what needs to be underlined is Gratitude.

The Standard Protocol - Solving Inflation

Quote from: Stedsm on June 19, 2021, 04:21:50 PM

TBH, money has everything to do with happiness is you're all the way into living life your way (or living life king sized). The other way around, money has nothing to do with happiness if you have the will to remain and feel satisfied no matter what happens. It's the person with responsibilities who would be worried about money to give a good lifestyle to his/her family but if someone's alone and don't get money (kind of pocket money) even from home (a student maybe) but he's satisfied with everything and can adjust according to times, then he can manage everything and his mood won't be affected by this.

It sounds a bit odd to me if you say that happiness is the result of will power or a question of your own will. Maybe conviction, but will or will power I don't know. Satisfaction is a question of education, understanding what's good and what's bad and also to appreciate what you have instead of permanently missing what you don't have. That's a process.

We all know the happiness that money can bring to your life and that's why many are working for it at first and later on, they let their own money work for them. Money can do everything and it can help a lot of people especially on a time like this where we are on a pandemic. Happiness is something that you can have even if you have no money, we all have this when we are a child but when the responsibilities comes in, we have to start working now for the money.
