It is said that money is the cause of most problems. It may keep you happy for a short while.Til others realize that you have more money than them!..

It can help remove the stresses that cause unhappiness, but if you haven't learned how to be happy before you have money, the money won't teach you.

No it can keep you happy by not having to worry about the basics in life, perhaps helping other family members and charities.

Your just looking at the wrong people. I lot of people who have money are very happy. Perhaps not the same happiness you are looking for.

Yes. and whoever says "All we need in life is Love!" Well, I say what if you don't love? I don't and I say being alone for the rest of my life is fine. With my money of course.

Thank you! I can't stand it when people say "All you need is love!" or "All you need is friendship!" Friends or romance won't get you food, unless you eat your friends/partner, and it won't get you water, or shelter. And I'm asexual, so I don't want love. Does that mean my life is meaningless?

Im the same with the "All you need is love!" stuff. No, your life is not meaningless. I live for different reasons that everybody else so I can't really tell you what you should live for sense my views are pretty "screwed" up as most people would say. I may seem heartless, but I live for me, myself and I. Just find something you want in life then pursue it.

No. My happiness comes from seeing 10000000000000000000 smiling faces in my life-time. When I die, I want to see that.

If it's happiness you want, might I suggest a slide. Everyone loves slides.

Money makes life easier but it by no means can buy happiness unless you are only happy with material things.

We need enough money for food, housing, etc. But, being rich does not guarantee or buy happiness. However, being dirt poor can cause some misery for starving or ill people.

One would think that money can buy happiness but not necessarily. Depends upon the people and how much money is involved. There have been a number of cases where people came into big bucks and within a short period of time blew it.

is there anything money can't buy? Money can be used to buy governments, armies, slave labor in the third world. Those with wealth are always going to be happier than those without wealth.

I kno there are plenty of terminally miserable people that are beyond help, but I can assure you, it would only take a couple of mill and I would find a way to make myself happy. Easy.

Money helps one obtain tangible things...true happiness can only come from things that cannot be seen.

Money can buy comfort and ease, money can allow you to do things you want to do, that is conducive to happiness..Like David Lee Roth said, "Money can't buy happiness but you can park your yacht next to it."

Depends on the person. I know I am happy the vast majority of time even when I am broke. I do however, get a sense of security that reduces my stress level, and thus increasing my happiness when I have more money then is needed and no outstanding payments dangling above my head.

Money is necessary to survive, but happiness is not guaranteed because you have it.

Not true happiness, no. It can make things a little nicer sometimes.
