money by happiness?

imho, i think it can. i grew up extremely poor, dont get me wrong we always had food and clothes but thats it. all my parents ever fought about was money, or the lack of it, so if they had money.. they wouldnt have argued as much, and me and my sisters would have gotten that dollhouse we wantedslaphead

yes and no, if it was enough to live comfortably, then ok. but to become uber wealthy, then it gets stressful

no but it will buy lots of stuff to keep you occupied until you find happiness

Your parents may have just found something else to argue about. Money can't buy happiness, but it can make things easier.

I would have to say no simply because when I went to Haiti for a month to work with an Orphinage the kids I worked with had nothing but were still happy.

She didn't ask "Is it impossible to be happy without money?"

She asked "Can money buy happiness?"


Tthe answer is, "Of course! Look at kid's faces on Christmas. They aren't smiling because it's jesus' birthday... that's for sure!"
