People never have contentment on their lives. They always want something they dont have. When they have that something, they would ask for more.
If I will be given a chance to change something in my life to make it better, I will ask for us to have money, enough not to come and work abroad. It not easy, you know! Being far from your love ones and working alone in a foreign country. You will miss the usual things, places and people in your life before. And sometimes you will wonder why you werent born rich!!! =(

yeah, i did consider that "no contentment" factor.. that's why i only indicated "happier" 
anyway, yeah, i do want money in order to live by.. even not to the extent that i don't need to work - just enough that i can choose the work i love.. and with no money restrictions, i can just do volunteer or part time work.. right now, because i need money to survive, i need to go to work everyday to a job i abhore... anyway, i want to work abroad as well so that i can help more with house expenses.. just don't know where to begin.. anyway, where you from originally and which country are you working at? . . . just curious...

I think financial stability is pre-requisite for happiness. Thereafter, comes job stability. Happiness vary from person to person. Some of things may be happy for me, but it may not be happy things for you. Happiness like heat, cold and warmness can only be felt, it is difficult to put it in words.

I am pretty happy with my life right now but do have one thing that i would like to do. I would love to be able to give my partner just one day without pain. He is disabled and is in pain 24/7. Thats all that i would want.

i know i shouldn t think about money all the time but an extra $2000 a month would make much happier ( knowing that i can help others too)

yeah, i don't exactly know the cost of living there so i can't compare.. what i know is that my couz there just graduated and now eearns $4000.. she said she just need $200 for groceries.. i dunnow, maybe the fact that she lives with her parents makes a difference.. anyway, yep, goodluck to you, maybe you can find a part time or something..

I would have to say if there was one thing I could change it would have to be not losing my mother and father. Mother in July 2002 and father in April 2005. Second to dept free and live comfortable, NOT RICH, just worry free.

I would be happier if my family and I were financially stable, I and my husband had better health, and also owned a better house. Right now we live in NH in a trailer that we paid for out right and it falls apart little by little. I love my life right now but it could be better.

yeah, me, i'm 21 and i still live with my parents.. it's the most practial thing to do.. instead of paying for rent, the money's just added to the household expenses.. things could be better and we need to strive for the better in all aspects of life.. they said if you dream hard enough, one day you'll wake up and have that dream realised.. so, stay strong, we'll get there..

well, even though there so many times i felt sad, i always find my way to be happy.
"Happiness isn't getting what you want, it's wanting what you got."
So just expect nothing and appreciate everything...
