Why does some people says they do not have enough money all the time?

They are just humble and perhaps they don't want people to know that they have lots of money already .

Because of cost of living differences. Because we live in a world that costs money. Because people have different goals to reach and what they earn is too little to reach them. I can survive on small amounts. I can move forward with what I have, but I would love to make enough money to achieve my goals, and on my current salary I definitely cannot do that. However, I don't complain about not having enough money, but talk about how I need to make more. Of course, it doesn't help that the government takes 27% of what I earn. If they were to take 10%, I'd suddenly be able to move towards my goals.

I guess some people might not be grateful for what they have, and they always want more. I have heard that from some of my friends as well. They always complain about not having enough money, but when you look at how they spend and what they bought, you will understand why it's never enough for them. It seems like this is quite common nowadays.

Could be. Or maybe they spend above their means and make themselves broke.

@ajithlal,Such persons are 'cursed' to keep crying all the time.The always feel insecure.I have seen millionairs complaining they don't have money.Why they do so,I don't know.May be,they think,if they say they have money,others would try to take undue advantage of it.

I feel they earn well yet they just EARN MONEY they don't earn the non-materialistic pleasures of life.If they love their family,spend time with them and their friends not by holding parties and wasting money on the celebrations but by just talking with them about themselves and about everything,then they would be rich in real sense. They may have the best of pennies yet if they don't have the non materialistic satisfaction they can never and surely they will be like they want more.

Today everything costs much more and therefore it can be understanding that there is no more money left, especially for the youngs. But sometimes I wonder when people complain about that they don't have money, do they also hint that don't try to borrow money from me?

When you have less money you know how to survive the limited money. Same time your earning increases your needs also increase, this is happening naturally without our knowledge. Rich people may follow a rich lifestyle so their earnings simply not enough to meet the expenses even though their earnings are high. This is the specialty of human beings

A man once told me that when his salary increases, so does his lifestyle. That's why though he earns a lot, his life is still the same. Nothing has changed.

Some people say that because they don't want to share or they need to pay something like loans. I hope they are not stingy.

They are probably spending too much on the wrong things. Most we know with what appears to be an excess have pricier items than we do.

More than likely they are spending more than they can afford.

Even though me and my husband are earning a decent income, I still think it's not enough because of our daughter. I would like to give her more than what I can give her now. I also dream of travelling around the world, and that is very expensive, so what I'm earning now really isn't enough.

When you get that much money,you will think the same way, people always insatiable

Maybe because they have lots of borrowed money and the money they earn are just not enough. Most of the time when your earnings get higher your expense tend to go higher too. Its about your lifestyle i guess.

maybe they are saving for something that they don't want others to know maybe they don't want people to think they have excess money

Earning much does also not mean being responsible with it. there were times i could go thru $1000 a day and could not show anything meaningful i did with it. Now i earn very less but my money is used so wisely because i make plans before i splash out.
