What would you rather be rich and miserable or poor and happy?

id rather be happy, whatever financial status I have I think it would be EASIER to find happiness if I were rich though, because ID have more resources and thus, more freedom

You make a good point about the recources, but for me I would rather be poor and happy, if you had all the money in the world I couldn't see someone being miserable, I know money doesn't buy happiness, but the type of person I am I will neer be miserable I always look at the glass half full just wanted some opinions

that's an awesome outlook,, regarding money, I am far from materialistic, yet I appreciate its value I say money cant buy happiness but it puts a down payment on piece of mind,,,

You are right pkh money can't buy you love, the problem when you have money is there is a good chance that people associate with you cause they want your money

I have a roof over my head, and way more than enough food. All supplied by a job I really don't like doing. So I guess I'm in the middle. Not rich. Not poor. Not really happy, but not really miserable either.

Why is it either or? I have had money and have not had money and been happy both times

Its either or because you have to choose between the 2 I have had a lot of money in the past and have been happy, its just a simple question money and misery or poor and happiness, I would much rather be happy and poor in the long run, ut that's just me

sorry, I can't seem to relate money with misery, misery I have only ever related with marriage
