Money can't buy happiness?

To some extent I think that money can buy happiness. I don't think that money can truly buy happiness, but it can make life a little easier sometimes and in that way it can make people happier.

Hi, I do not really agree with you that money cant buy happiness. Actually you can get a lot of happiness from money. Actually nowadays people are very realistic. Money is everything for some people. But for me it is not. Money will bring some happiness to us. For example, if you strike a lottery with $1 billion surely you cant sleep whole night. If for me i am rich enough to get the thing i like i will be very happy but the thing is the money must be i earn hardly by myself. So for me money can buy happiness. Happy Myloting!!!

True it can lend a small bit of happiness since a person would be able to get what they needed or wanted and had enough to pay bills..but in a roundabout sorta way though it can't make you happy happy happy cause then if you have alot you don't know who your true friends are if they are there for you or the things you can get them or get them into fashionable places. That doens't buy you happiness.

I think the problem with buying happiness is that we usually spend to the limit of our resources. Accordingly, one who multiplies possessions multiplies woes. If you have more things you have more things to keep track of and more things to worry about loosing. Now if one were willing to live at humble means, then more money would mean more security. However, care must be taken to avoid being a miser. A miser hoards their money, perhaps expecting a rainy day. However, money which is hoarded cannot be enjoyed and.. thus I would not expect the miser to be happier even if he feels a little more secure.

To tell you the truth, the position that my family is in now I can truly feel that money would make me happy right now. The piece of mind that it could create for us now would be so immense that you would not believe! I am sure that there are others in my same circumstance where money is hard to come buy and some extra cash in hand would help greatly. I do feel that in the end that money cannot make you totally happy. If you don't have piece of mind and live in integrity and honesty then you don't have everything. Money can sure help but it can't buy your happiness and friendships.

Money cannot buy everything but it can let you do some stuff to make you happy. We have a saying in my home country is money is not everything but if you don't have money, you can do nothing.

I have tried to have peace in my life for a very long time. I could never buy it. Money does help to make a person happy but it does not ever fullfill them. they have to have more than that, including peace of mind.

I think it depends on your attitude. I wouldn't need a lot of money to be happy, maybe just another $20 a week so we have spending cash after all our bills are paid. I don't need to have a lot of stuff, I'm happy with what I have. I just don't like the weeks of having to decide which bill we have to put off because we can't afford both. I don't like the weeks of having to find cheap meals because my grocery budget is cut in half due to the bills. I don't like having to tell my child's teacher she can't go on the field trip because my bank account is overdrawn and I can't pay the $2 fee. If I had just enough to cover my bills and be able to go on fun family outings on Sundays, I'd be happy. Hubby on the other hand, he wants quite a bit more than that!

if a person becomes happy just with money then no person whois rich would have been paundering like this just for happiness.i agree that money has got all the power to achieve anything but the onlybthings that the money cant buy are life,happinessand time .These three are the mast valuable things in the world because they just cant be achieved with money
