Can be happy without money ?

Money is necessary to get the things you need, but that is not what makes you happy.

Here is my important opinion: money and expensive things are not the same. Of course, you need money for basic things. You can live without expensive electronic gadgets, though, although young people don't believe that.

Money became a necessity of life. People can not even think life without money. Expensive things are secondary thing.

No we cannot as we can't buy basic things for us then. I know money is not everything but without money we can't live.

Definitely. Being happy does not correlate with happiness. But I like to keep active, and that means somehow being productive, which brings money.

Somebody does not need money to be happy.

I've never been a material person. Having nice things doesn't make me happy. However, while I don't need to be wealthy, I would feel uneasy if I had no money. I like to have at least some money in the bank because it gives me peace of mind.

We can be happy without expensive things but minimum money is needed to be happy

Happiness is a state of the mind but one needs the basics and an occasional indulgence. We need enough and a bit more like I assume I have to tide over my remaining years - siva

I wish I could say yes, but, I can't. It is very expensive to live in Israel and I do not want to live anywhere else so have to find ways to make money.

100% yes!

Well,I think,that money is important in our life.I do not want to buy expensive things,only sometimes.It is important to have money,to live a decent life.

I think we can be happy if we don't have expensive things.But we can never be happy without money because for basic needs like food, clothes, and a place to live we need money.If we want to buy food and clothes we have to pay money. We don't get it free.I feel at least for our basic needs we need money.

My grandma always reminds me to use money to make you and your family happy, not make money as your happiness. This is my opinion too.

In this era, almost impossible to stay happy without money!.. It's a need of time!..
