I think that happiness is more important than the money, but no money is impossible. How to think? I'm confused.

What is important for me is Happiness. Allow me to elucidate why I chose Happiness.. The word happiness implies a “state of being” that is often short-lived and not perpetually sustainable. “Well-being” is a more useful term because it implies a “trait”rather than a state. Well-being radiates from inside and, with proper habits, can eventually feed itself while happiness consumes itself. Well-being requires mindful attention to thepresent moment and self-awareness while happiness maynot necessarily carry forward to the next moment… Have a happy day my friend! :)

I also think happiness is more important than the money, but surely without money, the work is nothing. We hence should get a balance between than, that's why we need to think twice before taking a job, we have to find a win-win situation between Money and happiness.

Well, in life, money is definately important in order to live and survive, but it is not the most important thing in order to have a successful and happy life. I know many people in life who have lots of money, and are actually quite unhappy with themselves, and have no friends. Personally, I think it is quite vital for people to have a Job, roof over their head, food in their stomach, but also to have happiness. A lot of people who live paycheck to paycheck are actually quite happy because they have friends, family, and a relationship with a God that loves them as well.

simple answer, we need both Lol. I think we need a lot of money to achieve happiness, maybe for some people money is not everything they say but you cannot deny the importance for money in todays life. I have seen a lot of couples quarrel over the economy situation of their home. Let me ask you, if you keep quarrel with your husband/wife everyday do you think you can have happiness ? Don't deny it, money can buy you happiness, so when you are young I suggest go get money while you can.
