Topic: Money buy you Happiness, is this true! - page 2. (Read 517 times)

If someone asks me, what am I happy about? So I would say my happiness is reading books, my happiness is seeing new things, my happiness is being close to nature, my happiness is traveling to different countries and my happiness is spending for poor and helpless people. So if I want to be happy I must buy books. To see something I must spend money. To be near nature I must go to nature. To visit different countries I must travel. All these things I cannot do without money. So I have to earn money to be happy. I prefer money to buy happiness. There is no happiness anywhere without money. As the saying goes if there is no money, love escapes through the window. So money brings me happiness.

About 10 days ago I suddenly felt sick. What happened to me was that I couldn't find my mental stability. My head was getting very hot which was uncontrollable. I was getting increasingly anxious. And the heart rate was increasing after taking food. I went to the hospital the next day without understanding anything. I decided to see a medical specialist. Many tests did not detect any other physical problems, especially heart problems were not detected. The doctor called me and said that there is no heart problem but the only reason for the increased heart rate is because your anxiety is depriving you of pleasure and entertainment. He suggested me to participate in social work to keep me cheerful. I realized that I was constantly running after money but I didn't realize that in running after money I sacrificed my happiness and deprived myself of enjoyment. I understand that money is not the only happiness in life and happiness can never be bought with money. Money is needed in life but not so much that it prohibits one's happiness.

Money is not everything if your goal is right for most people more money brings more happiness. There are some subtle differences between them. For example if someone is extremely unhappy an increase in income may increase happiness somewhat but it may suddenly stop. People have some problems which cannot be solved with money. For those who are in a middle position between happiness and misery their happiness increases somewhat with increasing income.

That explains well , in which Money can buy temporary happiness because when you fulfill paying rent and dues then there is a contentment and happiness but after that when filing comes again there is another needs of it.

Not like happiness from inside our heart is priceless , specially when you are inlove and when you are with the person who loves you and you loved.

Yes Money Does Buy you Happiness. It is true, for example, you want something so bad but you are unable to get it and doesn't make you sad. yes it does, when you go to father say that I want this thing and it cost that much but I don't have the money to buy it. Would you get it for me please. There are 2 expected answers. Yes or No. This is where you determine if money buy happiness for you or not. I think you get my point.


It is true that this happiness is just for a while and it will last soon. and tell me what won't?

You apply for a job because you need money. Money will provide things that make you happy. House. food, vacations, healthcare, education.  In this era there is money before every thing you can imagine.

Money is everything. You can't have a happy life without money.

Now most of the people say that there are poor people but happy. They actually do express there feelings to anyone. The smile on their face is called a fake smile. I also Have this smile all the time..

If this persons is happy. let's suppose he faces a big opportunity. for example a job offer that is paying a lot of money. too much that he never imagined to have that much in his whole life. wouldn't he take that job???

Yes He would, of course, because he wants to make his family a happy family....

I don't agree with this saying at all because some said those who says money doesn't make them happy work all day long just to make money and fullfill their needs that is what makes them happy. In wider scale too, if you don't have money then you are not one in this world even your family will boycott you if you are not providing for them so don't ever think that money can't make you happy so stop making money.

Money holds varying degrees of importance depending on where one resides. In urban settings, it's deemed essential for survival, while rural areas, entrenched in farming, prioritize it differently. Individual life goals also shape perceptions; some pursuits necessitate financial means, while others do not.

Money is not everything but it is essential, especially for people living in the city. In rural areas where farming is rampant, money is still important but not like those in the cities. People have different goals in life so it also depends if it involves money or not as a factor.

From scriptural view I may be wrong but in quote Ecclesiastes 10:19 A feast is made for laughter, wine makes life merry, and money is the answer for everything. It's state money answer for everything but not all because I have see a man who have the money but still sad happiness is taken away though this could only be in area of genuine getting money because some money gotten illegally must have associated with sadness and sorrow. But job had a legal money still face sadness where happiness was taken away and the money could not solve his problem, I believe that happiness is a multiple of different factors money is just one of them but need others factor to be complete. Though the psychological state of man can be if more happiness than the money but money as addictive to happiness only increase it level but without the mindset been set presence of money can't make it work completely.

There is no point of arguments but you should get the point straight up, happiness comes up when we have rest of mind and the rest of mind does not implies that money is the rest mind. No doubt that money brings happiness but the happiness will be accomplished when you have rest of mind that is when the money play a better role in your life. I will give you another example on the role money plays. Let say a woman that is up to 35 years who is not yet married looking for a man to Mary her will never be comfortable with herself when she has not yet got married no matter the amount of money men give to her, or the material things they give to her will not Frick her except she has gotten a man to call her husband, that is when the money plays a better role in her life otherwise she will leave her live with sadness even there is money.

For me, money can buy happiness. In as much having money helps in meeting up basic needs of foods, shelter,and health care it can never  guarantee happiness, being happy in my perspective is apparently a choice and in most senorio case people that doesn't have enough tend to live more happier than those that have much, don't forget economics have it that human wants are insatiable which is practically through. Although there is no joy in not meeting up ones basic needs which is paramount, that draws my conclusion yes money can buy happiness but can never guarantee happiness. The quest for more money can actually leaves an individual unhappy don't forget about this saying more money more problems which is true.

Money cannot buy happiness but the lack of it can be paralyzing.

I am not poor, I am not rich but I do have to worry about money quite often.
When rent is due, when your bills are due, when you work your ass off and yet you can barely save $10 - that's when you might give up on things that will make you feel fullfilled - starting a family, having children etc.

You can still have happy moments, but not a happy life.

So for the people who are rich: be humble and understand that your wealth contributes ALOT to your happiness.

It is very obvious that money can't buy happiness but it is good to have money because even if you are not truly happy, you would be glad and thankful that you have money to take care of your life endeavors and be able to get whatever you want in life despite that you are not completely happy due to one problem or the other that your money may not be able to solve but in most  cases, money brings happiness and makes one feel fulfilled in life.

That is a valid argument here, Poor can be happy with even a hundred bucks while rich people cannot be contented in their Millions so if you will change position the rich to become the poor and the poor to become the rich I think that poor guy will be the happiest person in the world .
or maybe this is still depending on what kind of person we are or what is happiness means to us.

No its not mate , though there are some small fun that we can use money to be part but Happiness in terms of real life cannot be buy by
 money, instead this is from inner feeling that can only attain by having from heartfelt , and this is the real thing that cannot
be bought by money when Heart is involved.
That's it mate changing lifestyle with Money is indeed can bring us partly happiness
but that does not mean life is becoming happy .

But we are happy once life becomes easy right? actually this debate will never ends mate hahaha
because this is like another question about who comes first the Egg or Chicken? and also sometimes those material
things that we can buy using money can give us happiness which means it is with value.
When you use God in this conversation then debates will come so I believe that it is not
ethical to put that word in this debate .

Money can never buy you happiness.  God of Happiness is a radiant blessing.  Which cannot be exchanged for anything.  Maybe you can change your life style with money.

Money doesn't buy happiness rather make life easier for you. There are things money can buy but can't bring back some lovely or sad memory. Sometimes there are sickness which money can not save, there are also relationship which can not be bought with money. Love and sadness is just the summary of what money can't buy.

This is an argument that has some points but also look at situation of everybody. When people say that money can't buy you happiness, on the other hand, it can help you buy and help yourself to provide for your family.

If you can't provide anything for your family because you don't have money, what might happen? You'll have to put that stress to yourself and might end up being sad.

So, being sad, that's the counterpart of being happy. The latter comparison about what it can buy and not, it's true with what you've said but on top of that, money can provide things for you to make you and your family happy and have that stress gone.

I can say money is not everything, but it is really important in today's life, today people emphasize material values ​​above spiritual needs. The hard life/luxurious life has its own problems, and finding happiness in each life situation is the value of balance. However, the reality of life attracts us to many things, let's not talk about the soul being able to refuse everything in life, just being satisfied and grateful for the things around us to feel happiness. happiness.

We should look at the problem broadly across many subjects, because it is true that there are stories about money helping many people's lives and solving life problems. But really the message I think about money is that it should be seen as a means for us to find happiness, and of course there are many different ways to achieve happiness.
