Was it Lil' Kim who rapped the lyrics "Money power respect... It's the key to life"? Turns out, she was only partly right. New research suggests happiness has a lot more to do with respect than it does with money, Medical News Today reports.
In a series of studies, psychological scientist Cameron Anderson of the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley, found that:
1) Respect and admiration, but not socioeconomic status, predicted students' social well-being. 2) The relationship between respect/admiration and well-being was partly due to the sense of power and social acceptance that the students felt in their personal relationships. And 3) Changes in respect/admiration corresponded to changes in MBA students' well-being. And respect/admiration predicted well-being more strongly than socioeconomic status.
"I was surprised at how fluid these effects were -- if someone's [social] standing in their local ladder went up or down, so did their happiness, even over the course of 9 months," said Anderson. What makes you happier: money or respect?

+16Im a loner. People always had bad opinions of me and talked about me.

let them hate. they can
don't think for one minute that I don't set any store with respect. We can't discount the
importance of respect and dignity simply for the sake of money.
according to income,
People with less money Value Respect over money.
And,
people with more money Value (a bunch of stuff they can't keep), I mean, more money,
and little Respect.
I knew there was a reason I would automatically be more rude to people with more money (I know it's not fair, but it's true), and I treat People with less money
with More Respect.
It's because I can automatically sense their need for More Respect.
and
I can Obviously tell when someone doesn't care about Life.
You see'em,
zippin' around town in their Over priced car's wishing they could own the World.
SNOBS "Think" they own it, because in this realm material things,
FALSELY APPEAR TO BE SOMETHING OF GREAT IMPORTANCE.
That's just a Curtain, to blind our eyes from the
GREATNESS WE ALL HOLD INSIDE.
That's why I know, More Money, More Problems, NOT just with
people wanting money from you, or falling crazy over some drug, or
becoming a witch to others';
from your SOUL being BLINDED from IT'S ACTUAL PURPOSE.
SO, WE Must be on guard when we have more money,
so we don't fall into the, "I don't need Anyone, I'm rich" TRAP.
WE ARE BLESSED WITH MONEY,
TO BE of a Service and Bless others', not saying necessarily including money;
I mean BEING a BLESSING for someone, not be...
