Topic	Confirm or Deny, Money= Happiness
Zeus 02/12/18 8:31:04 PM #34:	While you might not be able to equate money with happiness, it certainly makes life a lot happier. The vast majority of worries and concerns in life often pertain in some way to not having enough money. mastermix3000 posted... Big fat deny I had a 14k drop in income and I feel a million times better because more money=more responsibility=more stress Just make enough to support yourself and you should be all set. But that's not simply having money, it's also dealing with working for it. If you just had tons of money, that wouldn't be a concern. As it is, you're depending on your job for your livelihood. VeeVees posted... "Money doesn't bring happiness" is what poor people tell themselves to feel better. tbh, whatever helps them sleep at night on their cheap, uncomfortable bed in their little hovel of a home in a unscenic area. sveksii posted... Personally I think that money can contribute to happiness, but to imply it is a r=1.0 correlation is a gross oversimplification of things. rexcrk posted... It does. Im constantly worrying that something will happen that will cost a fortune in medical bills. School is expensive as hell. Buying and making a home is expensive as hell. Cars and car maintenance and gas are expensive as hell. If I had money to cover ALL of that, I wouldnt worry, and if I wasnt worrying, Id be very happy. Honestly I cant believe there are people out there who think money CANT bring happiness. So if you found out you had terminal cancer, your mother got raped, your best friend killed your father, and the love of your life just committed suicide your saying as long as you had money you'd be happy? If you answer no then you're contradicting yourself. If money=happiness, and if I wasnt worrying doesn't matter because all other factors other than whether you have money are irrelevant to happiness. If anything you seem to be arguing more that lack of money causes unhappiness, which isn't really the same thing. A lot of people seem to be mistaking the question as whether money correlates with happiness, but as it is currently worded that is not what the question is asking. Think how much unhappier you'd be if you were poor on top of that. For starters, that money could help buy you justice. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:895970230] in Confirm or...
