Money doesent make you happy

[NotOurFriend]

You know, many People want Money in their lives, but realley it WONT make you happy.
I mean I got too much, but my Family is constantly battleing for the Heritage of my grandmother and No one accepts me Bring gay, because we are very conservative. I hate being in such a Family. Everyone should Care about themself but they want to dictate eberythig.
Im writing while drunk, so its pretty Bad, but i will write more when im Not drunk anymore.

Money may not make me happy but it sure doesn't make me sad.

I have seen wealth as a kid and poverty as a homeless teenager. Right now, I am able to look after my family with what I earn - a lot of people have it far worse.., A long time ago, I thought that you cannot buy happiness with money. I have changed my mind. I work with lots of people who cannot afford to eat and struggling to lead a basic life with their basic needs met. Money can make life bearable for so many of my clients that I serve. So many lives can be saved with money used appropriately. Money can make a positive difference. Suffering, unfortunately, exists regardless of the non/existence of wealth - but money can make some situations better..,

I am so sorry that you are suffering and not being seen or accepted for who you are and that is just heartbreakingly sad.

being healthy is better than having money. But having money and being healthy is better than having no money:)
Captain obvious here.

Money may not make one happy. But it can keep a lot misery out of the door.

I think what you mean to say is that money "alone" won't make you happy. But it's definitely a significant factor in terms of happiness. Particularly for those whose sufferings are primarily due to monetary reasons.

I'd suggest watching this:

Money makes life more liveable in terms of overall comfort. What it doesn't do is replace an emotional void, make people truly accept you for who you are or cure chronic conditions. Everyone's situation is different. Money would legitimately make some people's circumstances liveable while it will do nothing for others.

God make me depressed but rich. I'll take it.

 

[mortuarymary]

[Unknown21]

I get that it doesn't make you happy but right now a huge source of my problems is the fact that I would constantly worry about rent payments that were about 50+% of my take-home pay even though I worked 5-6 days per week, 8 hours per day at a job I hated, and I don't make enough to be able to try going back to college, and if it keeps up I won't have enough to retire.

So as the other posters said, it's true, but it does play a factor, but it's not the sole factor. Some people could have my financial situation and love life. Some could be millionaires and hate their life. Some would be content or happy. I know I'd be okay with being lower class if I had other things to make that struggle worth dealing with.
