Money can't buy happiness but it can help you to be happy, better to cry on a roof that doesn't leak and have a car and an insurance and investment rather than smiling through without any way to find food for the next day, being happy without money is just ignoring the problem which is being broke.
I agree with you that money cannot buy you happiness but it does make things feel a bit more not so serious. Having money can get you out of some issues that ordinarily would have been more difficult if you did have that money. Having money has its way of just making most things easy hence that anger seems not necessary.

Happiness and money are linked to each other, happiness is when I have a luxury house and a new model car and I have thousands of dollars, for me the definition of happiness is when I get a salary or get the return from my investments, what a beautiful life with abundant money so we work day and night to get it. When I have no money how miserable and sad I feel, So I am ready to do everything in my power not to live in poverty.
Your definition of happiness is just temporary and impromptu words, after those goals come true, you will not be able to feel the level of happiness you have ever wanted because the house only represents a complete but emotionless object, the air is relatively cold and tasteless, separating the meeting between friends and family, you may be satisfied for a few days but then the laughter and warm words of loved ones are needed more. Poverty is a distasteful thing that compels us to strive but this inadvertent striving will hurt the objects around us

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"?

I think the first statement you make is a very astute observation and something that only a man who has accumulated a fair wealth will actually understand. That is because wealth accumulation often requires lots of self control and learning how to manage your finances. To many people the extent of their financial knowledge will encompass a credit card, savings, a mortgage and loans - with the rest remaining a mystery until they die. However there is a whole world of information out there for the taking that can really help you understand how business and governments really work. Another key trait that the person with money has learned is patience - it can take a lot of time and effort to build up your riches, so you must make a long term plan instead of chasing short term get rich quick schemes which often sap away your money and leave you with nothing (again).

Money and happiness are related in some way actually. Maybe money can't buy happiness but it can help the happiness level increase. For example, when we are paid or when we win the lottery, we become much happier than before. Because we can get the things we want thanks to this. And it is very important for people to be able to buy what they'd like.

I think that money is an important factor one to be even more happy in their life. I think that rich people are happier than poor ones as they have a lot of money. Rich people also have tough times in their life but they are still rich at least. They don't have economical hardships. They just deal with the problem directly. But it is not the same for poor people. They have to deal with the problem itself and being broke at the same time. And this is really hard to digest for those people.
if they could choose most people would definitely choose to be destined to be rich, but rich people or poor people have the right to create their own happiness. actually rich people and poor people have the same problem in life, whether it's hard or not depends on how they deal with the problem. if a lot of money or riches make people happy surely there will be no rich people who commit suicide or go to jail.

Money certainly has an important role in making life better and happier, it is impossible for people to be happy when they owe a lot, so there are debt collectors every day, especially in this day and age where almost everything must be rewarded with money. without money will certainly make life like torture.
Indeed. It has an important role to make our life better. Money can help you buy anything you want that makes you happy but money can't buy real happiness like what other people want to have. Yes, you're happy because you have a lot of money, but do someone loves you? Money can manipulate people, when they have a lot of money, they forget to appreciate the small things other people gave to them. Not all happiness is about money but indeed, for us to live we need money to meet the needs of life. Therefore, it is clear that happiness and money are the two things we need to live our life better.

Exactly, nowadays money and happiness are like 2 sides of one coin, both cannot stand alone, it is impossible for people to be happy without money, if he is hungry alone he may still be able to stand it, but if his wife and children are also hungry then this is a disaster. With this fact, let's help others a lot to get a little bit of happiness.

The point is that I personally think that seeking happiness can be done from within ourselves, while money needs to be used wisely and not into debt so that we can get peace of mind in the future.
It's better if a simple life can make us happy and find happiness in our own way, as long as we are always grateful for our own life. agree Wink
There is always a way to create happiness for ourselves and especially with family even though it looks simple but togetherness with family becomes an unforgettable moment throughout life, don't always look at the position of money as everything to create happiness but happiness can be created without planning to make things happy until their smile becomes the pinnacle of happiness for us.

So, Money is a value of you of your tribe. Like the head wolf , Other wolfs give him good food, Because his value is high. Now your tribe is more bigger, Bigger than earth. So the head wolf is happy.
Happiness is sometimes thought of as a kind of selfish motive happiness does not depend on what people have happiness depends entirely on how people think. Happiness will come if the day is started by giving thanks for what one has or in what condition one is man's future happiness will be based on what he thinks today.
That's how happiness is when we are grateful for what we have now it will make our days more calm and happy,
so not all happiness is about money but indeed in living this life we also need money to meet the needs of life,
what is clear is happiness and money are the two things we need

yeah, there are many people smile while they just sit with their kid, talk, and play under the bridge. and it can be full of happiness than what rich have. but we cant ignore that if we give them money, that happiness will increase significant, money always be needed, for everything you need until everything you want

When we accumulate enough wealth, we will improve our living standards. After all, we have enough wealth to enjoy life after retirement. On the premise of happiness, I think money is an auxiliary tool to increase the happiness index. Although money is not omnipotent. But money can bring happiness index in a wide range. In their respective life difficulties, people are more eager for money. So balance the relationship between the two, otherwise happiness may be fleeting.

Personally, I believe that before enjoying life, a person must have a closed need for survival. 
If you have nothing to live on, you have no money, then it is difficult for you to enjoy life because you are in a stressful state of survival.
When you have money, you feel relaxed, because your need for survival is essentially satisfied, especially if you live in a capitalist society.
It's true and between money and happiness are certainly equally important and they are interrelated,
but in life of course we need money to meet the needs of life,
and what must be known that money is not the only source to get happiness

I'm actually not someone who adheres to a materialistic understanding where all things will be judged in material terms but for me people who have more money will have the convenience of feeling a sense of happiness because when people who have money will easily share it will be easy to care for others it will be easy to get what they want. It's true that money can't always buy happiness, but when a person is able to manage his money into happiness for himself, it means that he has succeeded in placing money in a position to be of more value to a life.
Money has got a big role in everyone's life. Everyone running around to fill their stomach, in the meantime people started enjoying the convenience and comfort of life. To enjoy more people turned more materialistic. This is where people mistake, you buy on need is different from buying for status is different. This has gradually changed as money is happiness which isn't true with everyone.

In this realistic world, money bring happiness though it is not always, sometimes emotions and relationship matter over money, but to have a basic living and fulfilling the demands its all money which is required to live and have a good life. More can say we are living in a materialist world.


It depends on how you will handle your happiness over money. Despite the fact that we are in a materialist world, you can't still buy a real happiness with your money. Money is just a tool for you to survive in this world. You just need money to buy your necessities, your foods, clothes, house, car, payments for bills and debt. In other word money is just you need to solve your basic problem in terms of financial. But it can't help you fulfill your true happiness inside your heart. You are just happy if you have money because you don't have problem for your daily needs materially.

I have the same view on the subject, there are people who just can't get enough, they won't be satisfied with any amount of money. I've mentioned before, as long as my needs are satisfied and I'm able to save a reasonable amount of money, I'll be fine.
Contentment is what we should be aiming for because with contentment follows happiness and when we are content, we don't ask too much at that point because we've achieved our so-called peak. Totally agree with you, as long as your needs are satisfied, it's all good but I also would like to add that we also should be able to get what we want anytime we want it because people forgot and always focused on getting their needs not knowing that wants needs to be fulfilled too.
