Have you ever thought life would be easier if you had more money?

I think it would be easier. The bills would be paid and that would be one stress out of your life. Plus they say most couples argue about money and that would be one less argument. But I have to think that having more money would also bring its own set of different problems in your life. what do you think?

well yes maybe i agree even though i have read everywhere that money cannot buy happiness but yes life would be easier and luxurious ... but yes there might be new problems like loss of money, scared of getting bankrupt and things like that so ... even if we have money our life will always have problems , its like a rule that everybody's life has problems without it people can never get tough and face challenges.

Yes, of course it would be much easier, but then it seems that the more money that you have the more that you spend...so would the money troubles really go.

One thing I have learned over the years. The more money ylou make the more you spend. More money would pay the bills but then one usualy thinks they can aford more so spend more ao get more bills.

Money only allows for bigger problems. We cannot avoid problems in out lives. If you don't argue about having not enough money then it has to be how you do spend it. So having money or not, it is the same world. Just different problems. With money comes great responsibilty since you can help others.

more money would make things nicer for a while, maybe you finaly would have the chance to do things you always wanted to do but i don't think it would make a drastic change on the long turn (well unless you are really on the bottom of financial society) well if you have enough money for living now, then extra money won't solve the problems in relationships (the money is ---by my opinion--- the fing most couples argue about BUT NOT THE REASON) social problems etc. it will only silence them for a while... so the conclusion, if you are miserable now when you are connecting ends of monts (but still get by) you won't change that by money, but if you have a smile on your face now, the extra money can only extend the smile

There are 2 kinds of money problems: Having not enough money, or having too much money. I prefer to have too much money! It's less stressful and I enjoy managing money. You would just have to worry about unscrupulous people trying to take that money away from you. But if you're careful enough and don't flaunt your wealth, they won't even know you're rich!

i had more money before but also more stress due to the nature of the job. now i work in a place with less stress but less money. so i guess moneu equates stress? lol. i think that it is in human nature to never be satisfied. to keep wanting for more. i want to try to live more simply, that is getting rid of excess things and learning to determine needs versus wants. i think that life would be more simpler if we can learn to be happy with what we have. have a nice day!

Well if you have more money then you can easily pay your bills and spend some more on your daily life. But when you get some money you will try to get more. And this greed for more money is not good. Enough money is a good to do but not huge money.

That's true, I absolutely agree with you. It'll solve many problems although money can't buy many things. And you don't have to worry about the material stuff.

More money would definitely make things easier. Not necessarily talking about winning the lottery. But an extra $300 a month or so would help me stay on top of bills and maybe save a little so I could go visit my family (haven't seen them in 2 1/2 years). While winning the lottery would be nice, finding a good job online that paid regularly and reliably would be even better.

With more money- comes more problems and more bills. yes the bills may be paid- but think of all the bills your about to add on- just because you have the extra money to do so.....

Human wants are not satiable. If you get money, tomorrow you need more and dayafter much more. There is no end to desire. Those who are working hard and earning money, should also learn to live within the limitations, so that there will not be any problem for paying the bills. They should also make provision for rainy day (unforeseen expenses). I too thought when I was just out of colege, that a lot of money means no problem to pay off to whom one owes.

I also think it would be easier. Not having to live paycheck to paycheck or wonder if there is enough money in the bank account for all the necessities in life (like food, water, and shelter). Though I have no doubt family members would be nagging me to 'borrow' money if I were rich. :P LOL

Of course,though money is not omnipotent,but nothing can be done without money.In the arguement of most couples,there are lots of problems related to money.If we can get what we need by money,and do not need to worry about the bills,we absolutly have less to complain. But everything has two sides.Too much money can also brings about some problems.But in my opinion,being richer can be more happier in most cases then being poorer.

More money would make life way easier. No stress about paying your bills more money to spent life would be a blast or would it...... It's true thou having more money may cause more problems in your life.
