Bitcoin Forum

 I came across a news flash on the media, it was so heartbreaking however it prompted me to create this topic and I'll like us to have a debate on it here in the forum. A Nigerian busines tycoon and the former CEO of Konga (an online store) took his own life, news have it that he jumped from the roof of his house, after calling his brother in the U.S to inform him of how to distribute his wealth.

 Well, i surfed the net to know his worth and discovered that he's worth about roughly $2.9m. You'll be wondering why a young and wealthy man of about 45 years, would decide to take his own life even after acquiring such wealth, i know many would think he's selfish he didn't consider his family, this and that but that's not the topic of the day, what I think is that one could have billions and several other assets but still find it difficult to have peace of mind.

 If money could guarantee someone peace of mind, then the man in person would've spent half of what he's acquired to find peace but what we was going through was beyond his wealth, and he's a prove that one can have all the billions and still not get peace or happiness. I might be wrong though but what's your opinion?

You are right but it is better to be rich than to be poor. The reason is that you can also read many news about people that are not rich but killed themselves so are the news of rich people doing so sometimes. I think the poor killed themselves than the rich people because the poor are more than the rich. Money may give people some ways to happiness but there are some things like sickness or bad health and other things that can make it not happen. But the poor can suffer those also.

Exactly.

We often see the rich taking their own lives or just doing some self destructive things and that’s because they never had to fight for survival like how the poor did. The poor people had to scrape and work in order to eat and they are not going to throw away the life they worked so hard for.

Unlike the rich who were probably already rich from the moment they were born and did not have to undergo challenges in life. I am aware that this might not be the case for everyone but it certainly is the case for most.

Does lack of money guarantee happiness?

Anyone can commit suicide and it's not a function of being wealthy or being poor. If you're poor, the chances of life choking you to the point of considering suicide are higher than what is obtainable for the rich. In this case, he may be facing some sort of emotional or psychological issue that has weighed him down and pressed him to a point where taking his life might appear as the most reasonable option to consider.

Even if there are instances where money can't guarantee happiness, still strive to have it because lack of it will lead you to become depressed even when you're not supposed to. Money is a strong defense against a lot of vices that weigh an average man down. Whatever can lead a wealthy man to commit suicide is strong enough to lead a poor man to do worse but what can lead most poor men to commit suicide can easily be sorted out with money.

I rather have the money that wouldn't guarantee my happiness and find a way to be happy than be poor and yet unsure of my happiness.

It's when the rich suffer bankruptcy and make them become poor, they don't want to start from the bottom and choose to take his own life.

While the rich that kills himself is just because of his own choice, similar like someone didn't want to get married or have a child, it's because their own choice.

No, you're not wrong.

Then you can give me all of your money, just mention which way you want to send me, I will give my address or my ID account.

Money does not guarantee happiness, but without money you will certainly not find happiness, so as _act_ said, it is better to be rich than poor without happiness.

There are many cases where many people are very rich but do not feel happy because they make money illegally, sell their conscience, and even sell their relatives in exchange for wealth. But if you know how to balance everything in life between money and relationships in life, I believe that when you are rich you will be the happiest person in the world. Happiness is when you achieve balance in life, not just money, especially dirty money never brings you happiness.

It feels like half the story is missing and the media can often play up a news story without properly analyzing the facts. It is possible for a journalist to say "this person owns an office block in the city worth $2.9 million, without realizing that the person bought this at the peak of the property market for $6 million and is paying very high loan costs. In the scenario, on paper someone might own that valuable asset and still be deeply in trouble finance wise. Either way, you're right - money does not buy happiness but it sure makes being unhappy easier to live with. Some people do just seem predisposed to self destructive behavior.

At some point in the money making life a human being, more money doesn't bring happiness. Someone said something so striking that some people are so poor that the only thing they have is money. When your mental health is poor, your family is broken up, your relationship with your creator is bad or whatever you believe in, then money will not be able to rescue you. Another thing is when you feel like your dreams have been shattered and there's no more hope, these are the things that lead to suicidal ideation. Finally, let your happiness flow from within you and not from your NetWorth. Happiness is a journey and not a destination. Do not say, once I make this amount of dollars, I will be happy, or once I buy the latest model of the cybertruck, I will be happy, that will never happen. Your happiness from come from within, that way nothing can steal it away.

Even though you can buy whatever you want and live a life equipped with luxurious facilities with the wealth you have, money cannot guarantee someone's happiness. I was always taught to be grateful for what I have now, that way I will get peace. There are many tragic stories that happen to conglomerates whose lives are always surrounded by luxury goods, starting from divorce, infidelity and what happened to this Nigerian tycoon.

Poor people always think that rich people are the happiest in their lives, but rich people who are depressed because of all the problems they experience at work or at home will be jealous of seeing the togetherness and harmony in the lives of poor people. Peace and happiness in life can only be formed from oneself, relationships with partners must always be harmonious, business must be managed well and always avoid negative things that can cause depression.

Money doesn’t guarantee happiness but having no money definitely guarantees misery. There are many rich people that are not happy but take a look at the poor people then. Almost all poor people are not happy. Some of them act like they don’t care about their financial status but they become pretty sorry as they get older because when you are older things get very hard for you and having money is the only way to overcome these problems.

Money doesn’t guarantee happiness because true happiness is not solely dependent on material wealth. Money can provide comfort & security but it doesn’t guarantee fulfilment in relationships, personal growth or purpose in life. Happiness is subjective & multifaceted, encompassing factors like love, health & meaningful connections. Chasing material wealth alone can lead to a shallow & unfulfilled existence. True happiness comes from finding balance, pursuing passions, cultivating meaningful relationships & living a purpose driven life which cannot be solely achieved through money.

no you are not wrong at all

maybe money can give us some short term happiness when we buy something or get to go somewhere but at the end of the day money or anything material thing is not the real treasure of our lives

real happiness comes from within with or without millions of money

You are right, having money does not guarantee happiness, and being poor does not guarantee happiness either, you understand that both sides have advantages and disadvantages. When somebody is poor and unable to provide for his daily needs, many things take him down to the point where he thinks to murder himself. Being poor in this lie is not an option because there will come a day when to think that this life is not for you, your rich friends will oppress you if they buy items that you cannot afford, and ending your life is the best option. And of course, I would rather have the money, even if it does not guarantee my happiness, I will find my way to happiness after making the money.  ;D

However, I was just surprised by the information provided by the OP because I had never heard or seen such news before, a wealthy man committed suicide. You know that if you make a lot of money in life, many people will turn against you, and even some close friends will try to kill you because they are not happy with your success. That is why many wealthy people are not happy when they become rich because they lose some of their important friends. But I can't commit suicide since I am rich, what are all of my struggles and sacrifices for?

Exactly, of all the replies I've read so far you're one of the persons I think is getting my point of view concerning this topic and I must applaud you for that, I've seen people who are not very rich they're close to being poor but are contempted with what they've got and even if they don't or when they don't feed three square meals daily, they still live happy and peaceful life, but it's vise-versa.

 However, the debate is not about being poor or rich it's about whether money could guarantee one's happiness cause there are people who think that once you're rich you'll always be happy in life, they feel money could solve all their problems including happiness, but they forget that there are certain things that could disrupt people's happiness regardless of how rich they're.

 Things like depression, lack of love from family, betrayal by loved one's, mismanagement in business and so on, people should forget the impression that once you're wealthy you'll always be happy in life, if that was the case, that man won't think of taking his own precious life.

Yes, he is not wrong when he says that money does not guarantee our happiness and that story is an example. But as everyone said, between choosing to be rich but not happy and poor but also not happy, which would you choose?

Also, I don't think you will be happy if you don't have money. How happy will you be when you cannot meet your daily needs? How happy will you be when your children are equal to their friends? You can't take care of your parents...you won't be able to do anything in this society without money, how can you be happy? Money cannot buy happiness, but certainly when you have a lot of money, you can maintain the happiness you have, or at least it is a hundred times better than when you are poor but also unhappy.

If you already experienced to be a millionaire and bought all the things you need, sustain the lifestyle currently you have and secure your future thats the time you will get contented with your life and money will be not your priority but if you are in the lowest point of the economy you cant afford anything and you are struggling with your daily life upon waking up I guess still the money matters, happiness will become achievable if you already reached the things you need but not for everyone.

Money cannot buy happiness and peace in life but money is an important thing for the course of a human life. Many people who have money but find it difficult to find a comfortable and peaceful life with their families. How many people have money, but they have difficulty balancing time with their families to build happiness with their families. Money is important in life but we need to balance ourselves in finding happiness, peace and tranquility with our families.

Worse still, people who lack finances can live happier with their families and they find peace every time they spend time together. In this life we need victory and time together, most people are unable to manage time to find happiness with their families. Happiness is more important than money and money is a way for someone to find happiness with their families.

Actually it depends on the angle we view it because on a normal, money brings so much happiness and some kind of fulfillment in live, I no that money is not everything but when you have money you will understand the feeling because the desire of everyone in this life is to become somebody very important or strive for the things we would like to achieve in life and there is no way those things will be possible without money and believe me there is no way you would be happy without accomplishing those targets, which makes money very essential in life but it was unfortunate for most people that after all the wealth they have acquired they have not been able to achieve one particular thing they desire so much in life because money cannot buy it.

I have to disagree when you said without money one will certainly not find happiness. That is actually not true because a lot of poor people in the provinces do live happily despite of their low earnings and simple lifestyle. One will be certainly happy if he finds contentment in his life, otherwise those who keep longing for what they don’t have will never find happiness and peace of mind. Life’s happiness is about living in balance, and accepting the reality that some things are not meant for you to have.

As I see.
Peace and happiness sounds somewhat spiritual (you only see it when expressed and also in the entirety of a person), that is to differentiate between moments and every other  times/day, then also say internal and external peace and happiness).

Internal peace and happiness (lifelong peace and happiness) can only be bought spiritually through spiritual insights of life (indept knowledge of life)
So that even when the money is not there, one still takes charge of his life/soul (patience of discomfort and also the sufferings that might follow)

 As temporary as the happenings of momentary and external peace and happiness that money provides, it is a blend to life but does not replace internal peace and happiness purchased by the reality of overcoming internal life downtimes (inside of human spiritually} at any time or all times irrespective of being rich or poor......

Money does not guarantee happiness but without money you can never experience happiness. It seems to me that needy people experience the happiness of money, for example, when someone is unemployed, money is everything to him. That unemployed man understands the meaning of money.

In today's society, money increases people's respect and money makes people important. Similarly, money is very important to live a happy and comfortable life. I have often heard from experienced people and from my old grandfather that if you don't have money you don't get respect for your wife ie if you don't have money love flies out the window. No matter how much people say that money does not guarantee happiness, i think in reality it is not completely true.

Money guarantees happiness to people, and it doesn't give both.There is no correct explanation for this. Some people live a miserable life with a lot of money and some people live a miserable life without money. It is actually not possible to say for sure who will be happy in any situation in life.  There is no guarantee of happiness in life. But you cannot expect happiness without money. It is foolish to expect that you will be happy only if you own money.

One rich guy commits suicide: internet> money doesn't bring happiness!
Millions struggle with famine, die without medicine, can't take care of their kids, face homelessness: internet> you can be happy without money!

Money doesn't guarantee 100% happiness, but still does for 99%, do a poll on some people without a home and a job and ask them if they would take this guy's position or choose to leave from day to day without knowing if they will have money to eats something and then let's see how many will refuse the change!

How many poor people commit suicide compared to millionaires?
700 000!!! suicide a year in the world, how many of those do you think were millionaires and billionaires?

The money is life to everyone in this world we're living in now nothing brings happiness than money, so in this case is better to be rich than be poorly because life of poor is not something that a person can be pray for, and why i say that there so many of people's that are taking there life just because there poor, but is happened for some rich men's they have too much of money and they didn't enjoy it as well that's people's that not every situations a person can enjoyed their some that you have to suffering before get what he wants.

But those that the money cannot guarantee happiness I totally disagree with that word, because money makes our lives to become better and even if we look at the those that didn't have money and they're lack of jobs we can see that they live is defferences from those that are touch the money always, I can only say that money didn't give full time happiness sometimes it give short time.

Money does not guarantee happiness, but if I choose I would prefer to have a lot of money even though my life is full of stress, compared to being poor and helpless, but also stressed. Because many things in life require money, for example buying a house, a new car, a new bag, family needs, and many other things - these things can be happiness for me. And also the question of "happiness" comes back to each of us, because even though there are some rich people who end their lives because of the stress of their lives, there are also more poor people who end their lives - so this is not about the poor or the rich, but more about how the individual overcomes his problems and can be grateful for what he has now.

It is an eternal truth that money does not bring happiness just as people cannot be happy without money it is also an eternal truth. Many people are unhappy even if they have money, and even if they don't have money, there is always a shortage of people, this is also a kind of imbalance situation. But if the human tendency is to avoid greed and to be happy with little, then a person can keep himself happy if he has little wealth.

People die ever day and it's not because they have money or they don't have money. When it's your time to leave the earth nothing will stop it. What brings happiness to Mr. A might not be the same thing that brings happiness to Mr. B, so generalizing it that money doesn't bring happiness might just be your own ideology. Moreover that man never said he wasn't happy with the money he had before his death, it could have been something else that got connected to his death and not even a question of money. If money doesn't bring happiness to some, it definitely brings happiness to others.

@OP money can provide the person with his needs and can buy temporary happiness but beyond that human happiness does not rely solely on material things. There are people who has not enough food on their table but can still put a smile on their faces and continue to strive to live.  I believe the person spiritual and/or mental health is suffering.  No one in their right mind would take his own life despite of the problems they are suffering.

It is possible that the person stated by @OP that committed suicide has been experiencing stress and or despair.  There are a possibility of a hidden transactions that endangered him and his family's safety thus choosing to end his life to save his kin.  We have this kind of situation where a high ranking official committed a suicide one he and his group were exposed of a scandal that can endanger his family if investigated deeply.

Lets just accept that fact but for those who had achieved that financial freedom would really be definitely be the ones or those people would really be telling these lines but for those people who do struggle themselves on achieving such condition or having lots of money would really be still continuing on working themselves to achieve such goal. On the moment that you are on such condition that
you dont have the money that you could really make your life comfortable then pretty sure you would really be that doing all the very best to achieve it out. Money isnt everything but you would really be
needing it and in every move and decisions you are making which does involves money specially if you would really be liking something. This is why it isnt really that much that precise on having this word or line.

Although it would really be that still depending on a certain individual since not all would really be just that giving out importance when it comes to money or something
not their priority but rather on the other way around of things and makes money just that their second priority.

If everyone has the ability to be rich, none of them want to be poor. Unfortunately, some people have no way to be rich because they have many limitations in their life. However, it is true that the happiness won't depend on the economic status of someone. Even if someone is rich, he can be not happy because of a lot of problems in his life. When someone is too focused in looking for money, he may forget to enjoy the life. It may lead to frustrations if someone can't enjoy his life. That's why there are many cases that rick people who killed themselves. Meanwhile many poor people aren't too focused on the money or wealth. They can enjoy life although they have no much money. It is because they can thank to the God and they assume togetherness with close people is more important than money. With this mindset, the poor people have small chance to end his life with something bad. But there are also few cases that poor people who killed themselves because they give up with their difficult life.

You have to find your purpose and money is one thing for you to be really happy, but happiness is not all about money, and there’s a dip meaning for this one. If you are going to understand and appreciate life, you’ll realize that small things matters and those who are not happy are just expecting too much or suffering from a big self-problem.

We as humans we always see material things as something that covers everything in life but no it isn't, even the poor find it hard to be happy no matter how comfortable they seem to be  with their condition even the rich also feel that way. It is when you get close to either the rich person or the poor person that you'd know that deep inside they have a problem that money alone can't solve.
About the man who took his life it could be that he did it to protect his family or something much stronger than what we're thinking and we're not in any place to judge his action, let it just be that it's best known to him. I know some might be having it in mind that his hands are not clean, it might be true at the same time wrong, the major thing is that happiness only comes from within and money can't buy it no matter what.

True, if you are poor then you don't have the luxuries in life and who knows, you might also think of killing yourself because of the current status of your life. As in this case, perhaps it's not about his money, as he had called his brother about his wealth and how to contribute it. But probably he has some mental health issues that he can't talk to someone about it and it boils down inside of him.

Majority of us just dreamt of becoming millionaires, and so I doubt that crypto investors will suddenly take their lives without reason. There could be deeper reasons for this man and not just about his money.

Those are actually happening in real life. In order to save the family's reputation, one might decide to put an end to his life believing that it could be the best solution to his problem. Or just like the case of a celebrity here in our country who committed suicide, the pointed reason are anxiety and depression and without no one at home to comfort him, he just chose to put an end to his life to end all his sufferings. Still, this could be a valid reason though since anxiety and depression are serious mental and emotional health disorders.

Money doesn't guarantee happiness according to the op post may be true in at some point, but it is good to have it. Money solves more than half of a persons problem. If you check the percentage of the role money plays in the life of every human, it is above %70-%80 if am not even wrong. I always feel somehow when I hear people saying that money does gives happiness. Though I know it may be true but not actually as they said. It only hapen in some cases but not all.

These stories have to be better investigated before we claim money doesn't guarantee happiness... I agree money doesn't bring happiness depending how it was acquired. If it was fruit of injustice, cheating, manipulation then I'm sure it won't bring happiness.

Anyway, in most cases like the one being discussed here, there are hidden details the public doesn't have access to. It actually made me remember a Tom Cruise's movie called Cocktail I was watching these days. He had a wealthy friend who commited suicide at some point because he was financially broken, but nobody knew about it.

Maybe for shame, fear to face the consequences or pride these individuals put a precocious end on their lives. In other cases, it's due to accidents provoked by substances' abuse, as it's also common these rich guys make use of drugs and alcohol in high dosages without precautions.

Everyone will of course think like that, but when they are looking for money, most people forget about this so they are willing to do various things to get money and there are even some people who do it illegally to get money and only a few people can find happiness. without having a lot of money, so it is very important for us to be able to find happiness with whatever money we can earn because we often see those who have a lot of money not being able to find happiness and we often see those who already have a lot of money looking for pleasure such as which is done by people who don't have much money.

Exactly its better to be rich than struggling financially since we know how heavy the feeling if we can't provide something. Also there are people who only base their respect depends of financial gains of the people. That's why although money doesn't guarantee happiness but for sure you could able to enjoy all things that you want in this world.

That's why instead of not valuing money because of that mindset they should strive to earn more so that they could able to provide a comfortable life not only for theirselves but also for their family. There are poor people saying that maybe just to comfort their self and ease away their worries regarding on their daily struggles.

I have gone through poverty and I can attest that poverty can lead to suicide more than riches. A hungry man will more easily commit suicide than a rich man. Many poor sick people will willing to commit suicide if they have the opportunity. If a poor man commits suicide it doesn't receive news headlines like the rich so it is common to see such discussion having wide coverage.

Most of the rich people who commit suicide don't commit it because they are wealthy but they have other reasons. Some of them are going through serious health or psychological problems. Others are in debt and don't have the means to repay. We just assume that they are wealthy while these people are even poorer than us because of the amount of debt they owe. Let me add that some of the suicides of these rich people are pre-planned murders. Suicide is used to cover the criminal act.

Many problems that can makes someone commit to suicide without wanting to share their problem to their relatives. Maybe they feels that their relatives can not helps them to solve their problem so they still keeps the problem for themselves. Rich people will have many problems that poor problems because their network is wide and they must knows everything about their business and their relationships.

But if someone who calm down his minds and can thinks clear if he have a problem, he will not do any bad things for his life. He will trying to solve the problem and he really understand that is not about money. He also knows that money does not guarantee happiness but money is neutral and the use will depends on each people.

When someone can use money properly without any problem while he is a rich person, he can balance his life without thinks that money is the root of evil. We should learn to have a clear of minds in our life so we don't have to feels any problem comes to us. Well, we have a problem but we can solve it without gives a bad effect our life or our relatives. Not all things can be bought by money.

Money does not guarantee total happiness or peace of mind , you can still have money and there will be challenges that will be troubling you mind, it can be your business or people around you or even health condition.  You don't need to be surprised when you see wealthy people who are unhappy because it is very possible. People who don't have money , struggling for money thinks happiness comes only when you have money. In life when you lack a particular thing and it is all what you think about , you maybe thinking when you finally get that thing all your problems are solved and happiness will never end but it will shock you that anything can occur that can make you unhappy.
Maintaining wealth is even more difficult than to get wet wealth , some rich people they have challenges with their wealth and this can also make them to be unhappy to even lead them do strange things.

I have to tell you something though, as much as money doesn't buy happiness, what you buy that needs money is definitely the one that's going to get you that happiness and satisfaction that you're looking for, maybe the peace of mind that you're going to get out of money you're earning is enough of a guarantee that you're happy. Maybe we're so distracted of the things that we want to do that we're so ungrateful of what we have right now, it's all right to be chasing stuff little by little so I'm sure that things will eventually go your way, money isn't the real reason why you're sad, it's probably you and the people around you that's making you sad and miserable.

The problem is how well he can be grateful for everything he has now. People who cannot enjoy life are those who cannot see clearly how much happiness is around them and how grateful they should be for what they still have now. Whether it's about health or even other things such as wealth and so on. And yes, money cannot guarantee someone happiness. Because the source of happiness does not lie in money, but happiness will appear when we can appreciate our life more.

The presence of restlessness and restlessness in a person's mind even when he has become a billionaire is because he is still afraid of the future. Because he is still afraid of losing and because he is still greedy because he wants bigger things. And that is human, but we have to control it by loving our own lives more.

Finances are very important on the path to happiness. But well, happiness doesn't only lie in finances. but also in other simple things in our lives. In fact, every breath we take, every blood that flows through our bodies is all a pleasure that we should be grateful for. And if we can appreciate each of these simple things more then happiness will come.

When human lack something, they will try to fill it.

Since not all people can be rich, most people are looking to get rich, only people who have been rich can say money doesn't guarantee happiness.

I could say that friendship doesn't guarantee happiness because people can come and go, most people don't want to see other people are successful than them, so you might be a friend of enemies.

Happiness is an absolute thing that arises from the mind and a combination of feelings in each person's heart, so it is not surprising when we see poor people who feel happy in this world even with only a little wealth. But know that those who are poor also really want to be rich because they already know how to feel happy and grateful for what they have so that those who are poor will keep working and hope to become rich someday. Because happiness will be much more complete when we have lots of money and don't have many problems in life.

Meanwhile, rich people who don't feel happy with what they currently have are rich people who are greedy and never know how to be grateful in such conditions so they are still afraid of falling into poverty someday. And you can research for yourself that a rich person who is unhappy is a rich person who has a lot of problems in his life even though that person has a lot of money in his life. Because although most problems can be solved with money, there are a few problems that cannot be solved directly by relying on money.

In living our lives we must have the ability to make adjustments, money is indeed very much needed in living life but that is not the only reason that makes people live happily and comfortably with their families. Many people who have money but they do not have the opportunity to be with their families so that happiness is not obtained. Conversely, people who do not have much money but they can live happily with their families because they have time to be with their families.

Everything needs to be sacrificed for the happiness of the family but we are also required to find money to meet the needs of life with the family. For me, money, time and togetherness are the important keys in living life and if we are able to balance them then we will definitely find happiness with our family.

Op, for me, poverty is not an option, but the truth is that we can still be wealthy or rich and still be unhappy although many factor can contribute to this, those factors can be your wife or the entire family behavior or some health condition that can only be managed,  there are something that's certain about this life that I know which is humans can not have everything complete, something must be missing but would you prefer being a poor unhappy man or a rich unhappy man, although bad health issues is the major contributor to rich individauls being unhappy, the truth is that good health is a gift from God, no matter how we see it or what we do, God has the final say about that, health is for everyone one, be it good or bad. Although I come to understand that the problem that one face is being measured by the level of his wealth, poor people may have health issues but those health issues may not be known to them because of their inability to have access to good health facility and you see them lasting more, but rich people don't because once their illment is being brokered to them by the doctor, they develope high BP immediately, am not saying that it is not good to see a doctor for medical examination, am just outlining some facts thats needed to be kniwn by every individual.

As long as we are alive, money is always a need for every human being in this world. If we live without money, of course we will be increasingly miserable and it will be impossible for someone to survive. But in fact, rich people out there are still chasing him. If we get a lot of money or become rich, of course we can get this happiness, we can help many people or we can work in the rich person's company. There is nothing free in this world to meet our daily needs other than earning money.

These type of topics never sees how many people take their life when they are poor. I mean if we compare the number of people who take their life because they are poor, versus people who are rich and take their life, you will see that number is a lot more but also even percentage is a lot more. This goes to show you that people who are poor could be unhappy a lot more than people who are happy.

Of course it doesn't guarantee that you are going to be happy, of course you could still be unhappy even if you are rich, but it is correct to say "you would be more likely to be happy if you are rich than poor", because poor people are more likely to be unhappy. As a rich person you at least have one thing figured out, that's very important.

Stop listening the motivator bullshit opinion about money doesn't guarantee the happiness, you can't happy with poor condition behind how difficult get good education access, good healthy medical until how to difference level of social interaction with the other.
Keep away with bad viewed about money can't bring the happiness because with the much money we can small and help the other how to be happiness with their dreaming for education or make good justice.

I believe all people said about money can't bring the happiness most of them come from the rich person, I don't sure yet any poor people have bad viewed with the money and its most dreaming by every one how to earn much money and give us happiness later with easily to buy anything and get more respect from the other.

I highly agree into this one on which to those who had been saying that money cant buy happiness are to those people that who had already achieve such condition that they do have tons of money but still
 cant be able to achieve the real happiness into their lives but its true on what you had mentioned that it would really be just that simple to say but once you are on a condition that you are the ones who would
really be that on condition that you do almost not survive on day to day basis just because you dont have the funds or money for you to buy on what you do need then for sure you would really be
thinking up the difference and this is where you would really be molding up that mindset that you should really be that needing to make yourself that learn on what you should really be that needing to be learned
of, and this is something that would be your main priority.

Don't say this to those who have suffered a lot. They will prefer to have the money and then any other problem can come on them. Buddy, some people hardly eat one meal a day, or have a nice bath, people with serious health issues that they do not have the money to cure, and some with little health issues yet still no money to get little drugs. I don't want to go deeper, money can't guarantee happiness but at some point, it will give you the privilege to things that will grant you happiness.

The percentage is 90% for all humans. Don't let anyone misguide you, just having lots of money you will force happiness on yourself people around you will be happy.

I don't want to dig upon his life and story but not all rich people have peace of mind and many of them despite having the wealth, assets and cash flow. You might even be surprised of how much money they owe to the bank or anyone that they owe a lot of money. There are many factors that can result to someone losing peace of mind and that cannot ever be bought by money. He's not selfish, he probably can't take it anymore or there's a big problem that he don't want his family to know and that's why he has called his brother for the distribution of the wealth that he's leaving to them.

While for average joe like me, money can give you some sort of guarantee so that your family won't be hungry and you will be able to pay the bills every due date and that means peace to us. It all sets to what we are prioritizing. While for average joes including me, we've got a not so big problem but we are able to deal with it happily without even thinking of ending our lives. But when someone gets to that point that they want to end their lives, the problem is probably very heavy to them and they can't find refuge to any of their family members. May his soul RIP.

Well, money can’t give you all the happiness in the world but I would say, it’s even worst when you haven’t got any money. There is no peace of mind when you’ve got zero money. You’ve got everything to worry for and haven’t got a means to archive them, that’s the worst state anyone could be in. We might say some persons have made peace with not having and are living happily but I’ll tell you, these are persons that haven’t got money or know the power it actually comes with first hand.

If your ever told that money don’t give happiness, well try having and not have it again, then you would see that, you can’t even affect the least life’s in the way that you would have liked to.
Next time you cross the street and see someone in dire situation, give them a lump sum and see what joys and light you would bring to their life. Money can’t give you all the happiness in the world but, it would give you the happiness you need.

Money cannot guarantee happiness, does not provide a sense of meaning and fulfillment, but who cares actually? People earn to live, otherwise a person without money will definitely struggles in all his life and will never find a bit of happiness indeed. That’s the reason why people chose to live rich than poor, even if happiness is never that genuine, but at least we won’t live living like hell when we can’t even put food on the table for mere survival.

Its an important facet to capitalism overall that despite the many unfair points on a capitalist economy, having more money is not a guarantee of everything positive absolutely.

To me thats important because though money helps its far from everything.   I'm sad to read of this particular case but its a given this man had problems far greater then just his current money.    I relate this to economics because it more or less guarantees people will constantly circulate money hoping to exchange it for something far more valuable which is there own well being and happiness.

    Security of money is the easiest way to categorise the usefulness and efficiency of money because ultimately we do want to spend it just not on the same day we earn it.

Well, there is no guarantee of happiness with money. However, nowadays money can also make it easier for us to meet our living needs, and make life easier. Apart from that, many family problems start with the economy. I think the problem of happiness is a problem of feeling grateful, being patient, and accepting the situation.
Apart from that, I think there are many things that cause unhappiness, and one of them is economic factors. When you have a lot of money, you have at least dealt with one of those sources.

You have a point. Money does not guarantee happiness but it serve as one of the tool that make life easier to some people and to some people who have go through alot in the area of financial needs they see money as something that guarantee happiness.
It's a different folks different strokes

Money is just a tool to bring happiness closer. But it all depends on how a person uses them. For some people, money can disappear after some time without a tangible trace, for others it can even bring grief and troubles, for others it can give them prosperity and a feeling of happiness. It all depends on many life factors. Thus, money is only a chance for prosperity and this chance must be used correctly.

Of all the elements, we cannot be separated from needs, even though money can fulfill all of ourbut with money we can buy it  in fact happiness can be obtained from other things, it's important that we can be wiser in looking at money, but it's useless if we have a lot of money but have a disease that doesn't can be cured, it seems the main key is that we have to be grateful a lot, and I see people who have a lot of money,they look like they have a lot on their minds  and are not satisfied with what they get because happiness can be obtained simply depending on how we interpret it.

The hardest thing about seeing people like this, is that you may never know beforehand. Most people out there who put on a strong face, and that makes it harder for people to see if that would work or not, and this causes a lot of trouble for a lot of people as well.

Because we can't see if they are hurting inside or not, because we see them having no trouble when we talk to them, we never understand their pain and they never seek help so they never get better. If only people would be brave enough to say that they have some trouble, so they could seek professional help and get better. Just recently I have spoken with psychologists to talk about my financial issues, it made me feel a bit better, gave me courage, and I am feeling better thanks to that.

Most people will never be satisfied with what they get, even rich people will continue to work hard to get more money so money indicators do not guarantee happiness, I really agree.
And it's true, that people's happiness is different and of course being grateful for what they have got is the beginning of that happiness. In my opinion, the rest is a good environment and health are reasons to be happy.
Regarding needs that will arise along with desires due to environmental factors, they will vary.

Money is not a guarantee for happiness, but it's definitely a helpful tool to achieve happiness. Assuming you have two identical people then I would argue that the one with money is going to be happier than the one without money. Not having to save money every day and wondering how you are going to afford all your essential items in the next week is reducing stress a lot and is going to make life easier, which in return should lead to happiness. Also 2.9m USD in today's world is not really that rich anymore. You might be able to retire early, but depending on the size of your family bills will keep piling up and it might be hard to make a difference for everybody. With that money you could probably buy a nice house for yourself and your parents, a nice car and some great vacation, after that there won't be so much money left. Alternatively, you could generate 4-5% almost risk-free return and live of the interest. And then there are things that money can't buy, like health for you and your family. The best approach is to live a happy life independent of money and to not make it our main goal in life. 

Happiness come from within, the money is a tool to fulfill your heart desires, it's as simple as that, there are so much more people getting depressed due to lacking financially than millionaire who gets depressed due to some other thing other than financial.
literally so many people entangled in poverty ending their life due to outside pressure and no one bats an eye, and when the opposite doing the same thing it seemed to make a headline on the news.

to tell the truth, money matters and often times it is what can make you happy though doesn't necessarily means it will guarantee you happiness but it's always better having money to go to holiday even though still feeling depressed than depressed and having no money at all.

They truly feel happiness will be completely different from accepting and resigning to their fate. I also come from a remote countryside, even my maternal hometown has only had electricity for a few years. People have very simple lives and always laugh happily every day, but if you ask them if they want to be rich, want to eat well, dress beautifully, use an iPhone...Everyone wants to have those things but they don't have the opportunity to touch those things. Or when they see children in the city having a full life, they also dream that their children will also have such a life in the future and escape the current poverty.

Obviously they are accepting their current life because they have no other choice, but if given the chance, they will find a way to leave that life. If they are truly happy with life there, they will never want to leave. Not to mention, when you are sick, you will see how important the power of money is and that is the reason why many people gradually leave the countryside for the city.

If we look broadly then no conclusions can be drawn, there are rich people who commit suicide and the same goes for poor people but it cannot be denied that money has a big role in fostering a sense of happiness in life, at least if we have a lot of money it will Avoid depression due to situations that will have an impact on happiness.
So I cannot deny that money is an indicator that has a big influence in life in determining whether you are happy or not.

The title didn't suit the story, if you have been a fan of e-commerce like Konga and Jumia, there is more to what happened and why he committed suicide and it's not because money can't buy happiness, he wasn't prepared for what is coming and was weak to continue the struggle about his company.

There was time infinix and Tecno company first came to Nigeria, that was when Nokia began to fold in Africa, these tech companies made a big partnership with Konga, was then the biggest e-commerce company in Africa then and they were helping people but and distribute this phone items across many places in Nigeria, other people started selling in this e-commerce but after a while, the Phone companies started opening stores across the states in Nigeria and the e-commerce didn't see much sales again.

When Covid came, a lot of businesses where affected and he was change as the CEO to another person but despite that, Jumia(another e-commerce) has taken over and ever since then, Konga has not been the same again and I was surprised he took his own life days ago. A lot of media thinks the competition in business line is the reason why took his own life because he was fustraded and not that he didn't see happiness about his life and his account balance, life can complicated sometimes.

Though there is a saying that says money is the root of all evils., *How is it root of all evils
Firstly * You see your old friend Driving Lamborghini and you don't even have a bicycle if you are not courageous enough you will find an illicit ways to become like him. Where as you have forgotten there is a lots of ways to be a successful in this life.

Have you ever look at it towards this direction?
There is a poor man who hardly eat two square meal in a day with good health and his in his late 60. Suddenly had an opportunity of $100,000. He invested in some business after just 2 years an armed rivers came to his house to transfer all is saving to them and sign all is asset to them or else they will kill him. Instantly he said I will rather die than go back to poverty and at least my children will not suffer again, and he struggle him self do death. So what did you think ?

Poverty does not guarantee happiness either, in fact,  happiness is mostly personal creativity. What makes Mr A happy may not be the happiness of Mr B.
Some people find happiness through making money and being able to leave the life they desire. Others find happiness in none materialistic ways.
To me, being happy depends on how you perceive life and handle your situation whether you have money or not.
If you are contented you will be happy regardless of your net worth.

It depends on where you get the money from and where you use it.
What makes someone happy is not money, they are the ones who can make themselves happy, Money is a means of sustaining life and as a means of facilitating human activities.
They have a lot of money and are rich, it is a bridge for them, for example: buying a car is fulfilled, buying food is fulfilled, buying other things to fulfill their life is fulfilled and so on.

Happiness lies in gratitude, they are grateful for what they have, that is where happiness lies, many people live not rich, just barely, but their lives are happy and vice versa, What can make you happy is yourself, not money, money is only symbolic for you wanting something in this world, happiness is in your soul, not in money.

At the long run I think lack of money becomes the root of all evil but what money can not do I believe more money will do it.

Money does not bring happiness in a problem where the solution is not money but money guarantee peace and happiness when you have a problem that can easily be solved with money. In the case of the tragic death of the konga CEO, I the main cause of his death is still unknown but since he took his life by himself I assume that it is something that has to do with his mental health and not money because he is not poor, let's wait till the cause of his death is made public before concluding if he wasn't happy with all the money he has got.

Making money means achieving something and this is the reason for happiness. Some feelings can change from day to day, so we should not be too precise about this issue. We can sometimes act callous to achieve our goals. This is behavior we should not do. Money does not guarantee happiness, but it is necessary.

If we work hard and move towards our goals, we can definitely achieve success one day. The things that make people unhappy are different for everyone. It is necessary to analyze this and do something to change the things that cause unhappiness.

those who are rich already have a lot of money, of course that doesn't mean they just keep quiet, they also have to keep looking for a source of income because of course their finances won't last well by always being there without a source of income, of course their finances will run out, especially if they cannot manage their finances well, which means their finances will always be disorganized. Money does not guarantee happiness because even though everything requires money, not everything can be bought with money.

Apart from that, everyone's happiness is different, but that doesn't mean they don't need money. Even though money is said to not guarantee happiness, everyone needs money, apart from surviving, it is also to buy what they want, it can even make them happy by buying what they want. we live in the real world which really needs money to survive, especially now that everything has become expensive, sometimes many people are willing to do crazy things that endanger themselves just to get money, the aim of which is to meet their needs, therefore we have to try to get money and be grateful for it. what you already have and get.

Money was probably not the reason why he committed suicide because he already had enough, the reason must be having no mental or moral support maybe from family or something, or it could have something to do with his relationship like his wife or girlfriend or something because we often see people killing themselves in such matters which is foolish but we can't say anything.

I believe people who commit suicide are weak mentally, no matter how rich or blessed they are, they aren't able to control their emotions or have any idea about managing stress or how they can deal with problems. Someone who can't handle their problems or have the ability to deal with them will reach such conclusions even if they have a lot of money or everything one could ask for in their lives.

Happiness can be had by anyone no matter how much money they have or how little, what matters is grateful. If someone is never grateful for what they currently have, then of course happiness will be difficult for them to feel. He puts more desires into achieving, he is motivated to make them happen and this makes him feel unhappy.

I think money is just a supporting factor, but money can support more happiness if they know how to spend it properly. Human lust is never satisfied, if it is satisfied then there is a greater desire that becomes their next target. Happiness is simple, but money is not a guarantee that you will be happy.

I don't agree with the "money can't you happiness" shit because I have seen life and I know how it is to live without money. Some people say that money can't buy you relationships and you can't live a happy life in loneliness and I say it's not true, the world we live in, it's only money that can keep people together for longer because can't stay happy with your relationships if there is no money available in the middle because even relationships have requirements that you need to fulfill and gaps start to increase when you can't fulfill those requirements.

Those who take their lives because of mental pressure are weak, they can't take any pressure or know any way to release pressure, and it has nothing to do with money or anything, but in general, we can't say that money can't buy happiness or anything because most of the things that make you happy in the world today only require money.

Money can't keep people happy but it should also be remembered that people can't be happy without money. Happiness does not depend on how much money a person has or does not have, but happiness is when a person is mentally satisfied with what he has. There are many people who can't feel happy despite having millions or billions of money or there are people who are content with what they have despite not having money. So the criterion of happiness does not depend on money or lack of money but on emotional satisfaction.

I see a contradiction in your statement. Above you said that people cannot be happy without money, but then you said that human happiness depends on emotional satisfaction even without money.

For me, happiness is when we balance our lives such as family, friends, work...but one thing we need to admit is that all of those factors are related to money. So in my opinion, money and happiness are closely related. A lot of money may not make us happy, but if we know how to use that money properly to give ourselves what we need, we will be happy. Whether money brings happiness or not, it all depends on how we own and use it.

It's true that money doesn't guarantee true happiness but it still remains the source of happiness and  I prefer to be rich and be sad than to be poor and be happy because they is nothing like true happiness in this world,the rich and the poor can't escape having problems and challenges. Infact without money one cannot be happy and money doesn't shield anyone from been sad and unhappy but the truth must be told,a sad rich man is better living than a happy poor man.

The guy, who committed suicide was depressed and depression has nothing to do with wealth and social status. Even the wealthiest and most powerful people in the world can fall into depression. This is a serious psychic condition that should be treated seriously.
Nobody says that money "guarantees happiness", but money is extremely important for a healthy and comfortable lifestyle.
One person can be poor and happy, while another person can be rich and miserable. Happiness and fulfillment are a state of mind.

Don't take anyone as an example, take yourself as an example. Are any of us poor but still feel happy and is that true happiness or are we just deceiving ourselves?

I have to agree with you that without money there is no happiness, I have never seen anyone who is poor and they say they are very happy because they have no money, including me. I am not sure whether money guarantees happiness or not, but I am sure that when we have money, we will have joy in many different ways.
We should not deny the power of money in the pragmatic society we live in, a place where money is controlling everything in our lives from relationships to health, and time...

I agree with this because suicide has nothing to do with wealth and we can even see where world artists experience depression so they try to end their lives by committing suicide. If the reason is wealth, then they would not possibly commit suicide because they have enough money and they can even buy whatever they want.

Many people misunderstand money so that everything is considered a solution when they have money, I know some people who live in villages and they grow vegetables for their needs and raise their chickens, ducks and other birds to earn money. But their lives can be said to be quite happy and never complain about the wealth they do not get.

In urban areas, everything is difficult and if we do not have money we will not be able to meet the needs for food, so money becomes more important even though income levels can vary. Money is indeed very much needed but it also depends on how we can use it. Suicide has nothing to do with wealth because it is related to depression or frustration in living life.

Well for me this whole concept actually depends on your own take as what you describe as happiness because the concept of happiness differs for many people across this earth 🌎 and if I were to be placed on the particular concept then heaven and God knows that I would definitely choose money to provide my happiness for me despite the struggles that will follow it and this is me being honest.😁

One thing is true: money cannot buy happiness, but money can make you happy. Note the difference. It's better to be rich than to remain poor; in fact, there is no poor man who is happy, which is a sad truth. The happiness of a poor man comes from his money, but the happiness of a rich man will come from his acquaintances (family and friends over all his relationships). 
 
One big mistake people make while making money is destroying relationships that could make them happy in the future because of their so-called wealth. That's why it's advised that we keep our loved ones close while making our way to the upper class. 
 
The man in this case might have destroyed his source of happiness in the process of making money. It's a very popular part of the lives of the rich, and after acquiring all the money, they start begging for good relationships to keep them happy. But the fact is, is it really worth giving up your life for? Nahhh, in my opinion, the CEO is into things he can't get out of, obviously; if not, there is no situation in which he couldn't manoeuvre with his wealth, but he chose to end it by killing himself which is stupid.

Money cannot guarantee happiness. It can contribute to happiness in several ways, i.e., good health, lifestyle, security, opportunities, and comfort. True happiness comes from genuine relationships, overcoming trials and temptations, and overall personal fulfillment. In the case of the 'icon', it might be his having some health issues that money can sustain but can't heal, or it could be his relationship or mental health. For instance, his money isn't coming from legal means, which prompted him to kill himself. 

But it would really be the main thing on which it would really be helping you out on being happy.

1. Travel = needs money
2. Buying wants = needs money
3. Providing your loved ones on what they do need = needs money
4. Important events or gatherings = needs money

and more...

Those things above are really just that those common usage of money that brings out happiness and this isnt something that could be denied.
In every move you would really be needing up to spend money to make it happen. This is why it would really be that so hard for us to tell that money
isnt always something that means happiness which its partly true but all the time it would really be the main thing that you would really be needing up for you to
materialize those things and could make things happen.

Somehow there are really indeed things which cant be bought by money like love, time,respect and other correlated things and
this is mostly that a problem by those wealthy people.  ;D

Yea its true that money dose not guarantee happiness. You can have all the money you want and still appear unhappy.  Infact i will say that biggest challenges of life always meet with the wealthy people.

Money is not a requirement to achieve happiness, that's true. But money is a tool to achieve happiness. With money, the opportunity to be happy will be greater because what we need or want can be achieved with money which can create happiness compared to not having money which means we cannot get what we need or want and this will cause sadness.
And what I mentioned is financial happiness, because financial happiness a person can live very safely and comfortably because anything related to money a person can make it happen.

Depends on your circumstances, actuallly. If you beling to the poor socioeconomic status, do you think it would be applicable. Most of their problems involve money; paying their bills, daily expenses, emergencies, and the likes. If you have the privilege indeed you'd seek for other things to fill your happiness. We tend to crave what we don't have and set aside what we have, characterizing our goals and wants in life. This topic is undending but will just fall on the idea that what you need is something you don't have yet. Happiness in the first place is subjective to an individual.

Let's say you have millions in your bank account, would you still crave of prioritizing money generating activities? And if you don't have huge amount of money, will you crave for vacations? Different answers but will lead to which factor are you lacking in your life. Where would you be getting that "haopiness" in your life.

Money is only the exchange for other things, that is the mistake we make in valuing money too much.  The overvaluation of money ironically will make you poor imo, especially in the current context which is the constant devaluation of holding that plain cash.      If you hold profitable business then you benefit most likely by giving money to your creditors while gaining value from the investment of value in the business, those who hold plain cash suffer the loss of value vs assets.

Even with Bitcoin I would say as much, if everyone held onto it and never used it then we have a zero sum game its only by circulation that it can be worth something.   Since paper money has become so political and misused via dropping standards and printing more to pay for government budgets its making BTC look perfect.  No money is perfect is how I'd like to look at it, I see money as a means to communicate.

While you are definitely correct about having money not equating to general happiness, you also have to understand that it's way better dealing with your problems when you have millions of dollars in your bank account compared to when you have nothing. So while I sympathize to this guy cause man, suicide's a bitch, it's still relatively nothing compared to the suffering of the people within your country who would have to deal with looking for the next dollar to feed their kids.

So yeah, go crazy about this death but keep in mind that all problems can be solved by money, and every problem out there is solvable for the right price. Sure, hedonic setpoint may make you think otherwise but can a poor depressed guy who eats nothing but ramen packets for meals afford to have a therapist, which this millionaire probably could? Nope.

Sorry, just makes me grind my gears when I see posts like these glorifying the "money can't buy you happiness" narrative lol.

OP is not mentioning paper money or any separate assets, what he wants to say is that being rich does not guarantee happiness.

Basically you are right, money is just a means of exchange, a measure of value but you cannot deny that in today's life, without money, you have nothing, not even happiness. So I don't think that when people value money they are making a mistake.

If you are married with children, you will see the full power of money. Or your parents are sick and need treatment and need a lot of money, then you will see whether money can bring happiness and why people value it so much. Money was created to serve people but the opposite is happening, people are chasing money.

The trick is that most of the time it's connected when you don't have it, not when you have it. Having money doesn't mean that you have to be happy, it does make it easier to be happy there is no doubt about that, but it doesn't guarantee happiness, so the title is true. However, many people think that not having money could mean happiness, but it doesn't because not having money could lead to so many troubles.

You could even have medical troubles just because you have none, because simplest things can't be fixed and you would need to see a doctor and not afford a good one and get worse because of it. All in all, being poor guarantees that you are going to be unhappy one day, so which one would you prefer, being unhappy for sure? Or being maybe happy?

The people in the Tundra like the Eskimos don't have money but from what I have heard in the documentaries they are the happiest people on earth. |It just really boils down to the satisfaction of the person.

If you are a person exposed to the high life, it is hard to be happy already when you have already stayed in a big hotel with nice good views from the windows. But give the room to a poor man who normally just sleeps on the streets. He'd remember the view all his life.

You were saying all about money. Its true that if you have money you can get many ways to become happy and enjoy life. On the other money can't buy happiness and love and also you will never pleased if you are not happy with mentally. Though you have enough money you can't be strong healthy if you don't have it. So i think myself a poor people also become happy if his/her everything what he/she simply want. But it still it is money what can brought to you everything, So better to earn money and find different ways to become happy.

Both the poor and the wealthy are expected to be happy, we have just one life to live, I don't believe in reincarnation or stuffs. To be honest 70% to 80% of our problems can be solved with money except that of health issues which even with the amount of money can only do it's best but would not give life. For him taking his own life is no excuse, he is not the only one facing hard times, what did he do to reduce the tension, he has the money and who knows If he even went for therapy.

I would guess that most people are aware about this fact, those that do something like this have some mental issues, and unfortunately the treatments that could help a person like that are still on its early stages, as our understanding of the human brain and mind are still lacking compared to the rest of the organs in our body, so regardless of the level of wealth a person may posses, the treatment options at their disposal are on the limited side.

Money originated from legit source will bring peace of mind while the ones that have been generated with ease efforts illegally, there's something we call karma. We should be very careful with our relationship with people. Money solves the basic challenges of life and with money, an individual can boosts of his or her confidence in the society because it comes with fame and power.

It all matters about contentment and this is something that would really be differing to each other whether you are rich or poor. We do know that even rich people wont really be that satisifed despite on having that financial freedom on whereas those poor people who are living happily despite of that lack of money or it is really just that enough for their day to day living. It would really be always that depending on someones
contentment in life on which we know that this is something that will really be that situational but somehow when it comes to happiness then it could really be achieved or lets say that you could have it all
when you are rich. Just like on some elaboration above on which on the moment that you do have money then you could buy and do everything. Whereas, these things couldnt really be done when you are poor.

Just like on what i have said that money isnt everything, it all matters on how you do cherish up your life despite of those lackings on which other people do and doesnt have.
Each person does have their own perceptions and motivations in life.

Money is very important and it can be considered as one of the things that can make one to be happy even if it doesn't guarantee total happiness in life. Money solves most of our problems in life ,if not for even 95% of the problems we have in life. Whenever problems are always solved it brings happiness,  this is to say money can be a true source of happiness.  If we  compare the happiness of rich people and poor one , that of the rich people is greater because with money they have problems can be solved thst can make them to become happy.

In this modern society we found ourselves money is very important and everything we need have to do with money , I don't think I'll say money doesn't guarantee happiness because it does for sure.

From my understanding and Theory it is very clear that government against happiness and the government makes everything to be shorter for any person but I don't know for other people who think that money is not happiness when you have money and you are also in power they happiness of life is completed and when you have money also and you are not in power you will also have a happiness because money is the Joy that human being have on Earth another thing that I know that will not make you happy when you have money is when you don't have offsprings that will enjoy the money with you

Who says money is the source of all happiness and satisfaction? It's not just all about money, but sometimes the best way to have a peace of mind and be happy is just to be contented of what you don't have, even if it means having just a small amount of money.

Money can bring happiness and joy but only in a limited time. Once it expires, you will feel the same empty feeling again and happiness won't be seen anymore. Don't be too obsessed with money, as having too much money will never give you peace of mind at all.

Every person's happiness is different, as you said, even though you are rich and have a lot of money, when you don't have children, you definitely feel like you are living in darkness because you are always haunted by the fear of who will enjoy your worth in the future. 

for this reason, when you have money, you have to focus on building a family, which is important because everything has to be inherited, or if you really don't want to build a family, you can donate your wealth in the future to relatives or an orphanage, in this life not having money is wrong but quite often having a lot of money is also wrong.

Money is a tool that makes people confused when the only thing that is pursued is for the lifestyle as long as he is still breathing. A clear source of money where it comes from is also not entirely a peace of mind and happiness of life, I mean if people are accustomed to wealth for generations, of course they consider money like pieces of newspaper that are not special :D .

I agree that by giving to others (who really need it) the atmosphere of emotion and happiness will be felt, otherwise if you give to people who are economically equal, it feels like there is no effect of happy hormones in yourself ;D.

If it happens like that, I think there is a space that makes him express his satress language with over thinking. Better to relax, mingle and enjoy life. for me money is a tool but inner satisfaction is when we are together and enjoy time together.

Money does not guarantee happiness, but happiness comes from ourselves, as we make ourselves happy in our own way, many people are rich but don't get happiness, they have a lot of thoughts and stress, even though they have a lot of wealth but don't know Where else do they want to take them, because they already have everything they want, for those of us who don't have a lot of money, we definitely think that if we have a lot of money, we will definitely be happy, that's not necessarily true, what we have to do is be grateful for what we have. we have, and never think about things that we can't necessarily get, when we have a lot of money the thing we have to remember is, a little of our wealth has the rights of other people, such as orphans, the poor, etc. people who need it, to guarantee our wealth and clean up our possessions so that we can be calm and happy.

You're right I also heard about this news though it was very sad, I know most people will be saying that what was he thinking? people always think that once you have money that all your problems are been solved, no that's totally wrong you know the moment you start making money that's how problem keep coming from different angles sometimes you can even get frustrated you know frustration can lead someone to do something that he don't even intend to do.

that is why when I heard this news about how a man jumped from the roof of his house, I know it happens as a result of being frustrated by something which I don't know. most of the wealthy people you see today does not make their money in a right source that is why you see most rich people not having peace of mind though money does not bring happiness but it should be made from a right source.

It's true, that money doesn't guarantee happiness, but without money doesn't mean you will be happy it will make it even more difficult for you to find happiness
You won't be happy when you are hungry, you will not be happy when you are in debt, not happy when you don't have a job, not happy when you don't have a permanent place to live, and so on.
So humans need money to support their lives and the cases where rich people commit suicide are very small compared to those who commit suicide because of difficulties in life or starving to death, I am not a money worshiper but whether we admit it or not, we need money for how to find happiness.

Whether one agrees or not, I think money is the most needed thing in all aspects of life. To live the life of a modern society we first need money because without money we cannot imagine our life. No matter where you go in the world you will find among people the desire to earn money i.e. people running from one place to another just in the hope of earning money and even in the hope of making life easier.

OP Among the rich and poor people, the rich people are the happiest because they can use their money for any need or danger, but the poor can't use their money properly even if they try hard. Rich people may not understand the importance of money but poor people understand the importance of money. If you go out one day with an empty pocket and see how cruel the world is then you will understand the true meaning of money.

Exactly because you will not get happy if your stomach is empty and those people saying that money doesn't guarantee happiness are maybe convincing theirselves that situation really exist. Although I understand that its not all always about the money since health and relationship to people is important. But you will not be happy in a situation if you can't provide especially when there's something needed to spend.

So we need to have a life balance and strive to earn a lot of money while we are young since if we don't act while we are capable then provably we go old broke and sad. For sure we don't want that to happen  so we need to prepare for future not only for ourselves but also for our family.

If money does not gives happiness then is it poverty that will give you happiness because wether money gives happiness or not no body will want to be poor because if you see what people are going through because they are poor, been poor is a disease on its own. Another is that even when you don’t have money you still won’t get satisfied.  Definitely we need to be contended with what we have then we are not going to move forward. It is better to challenge our self so that we can be able to change the current condition we are and it will be like a form of transformation.

The moment you are able to buy what you want then what else do you call happiness because the human nature we are not always satisfied so it is better to always try to get better. I feel some people are comfortable with the way they are. That is the main reason why some people are the way they are, let’s learn to do better in what ever we are doing.

Even if i agree with your opinion that money or wealth do not guarantee happiness I'll still want to be wealthy first then I can later deal with that part of the happiness it doesn't guarantee. ;D No amount of motivational speech should make you settle for less or comfortable being poor under the auspices of enjoying happiness.

Money bring us closer to the things, people, places and achievements in life that brings happiness to humans. It may not guarantee but it's a quintessence to be happy about life. How do you feel, if your kids come to you asking to go see a movie at the cinema on a weekend, because their classmates in school couldn't stop talking about it to them about how their own dad had planned on taking them to the cinema but, you can't afford it because there's no money?

It all depends on the position every wealthy man finds himself, for the case of the KONGA CEO after reading through his story, I discovered he lost hope and faith from everything about his marital life and family. A situation he could have been patient with for what the future can be.

"Money doesn't guarantee happiness." - but the absence of this will certainly guarantee  unhappiness. :)

We don't know the true reasons that pushed this person to such a tragic step and therefore, it is impossible to objectively assess what happened from the position of happiness received (or not received) from money.

Who told you that billions will provide you with peace and happiness? Money is a means of exchanging material goods and certainly not a tool for acquiring spiritual benefits. Everything falls into place if you understand the purpose of this or that.

Money is not everything in life, but it is now very difficult to be good without it. Love of loved ones is not available without money. Sometimes, people have no value and become a burden to their families.
From my side, I say that money is everything in life. Without this money, nothing happens in life; now is the present time. Currently, each step costs money. You have no money, which means you have no value. If you have a small income, like traveling with your family, and if you have a good mindset, if you don't have high aspirations and want to be happy in a short time, then it will be seen that you will get happiness. And if the matter lies in other thoughts, it will be far from your joy. Money is not everything in life, but nothing happens without money.

I like your post, you speak the truth, and it is very well said. Indeed, money cannot always be the source of happiness. It all depends on our needs. What my needs will be, the main thing is that it can be well inside a little. You don't need a lot of money to be happy. Here, we can see that he brings and eats daily; he lives happily and sleeps at home peacefully at night; there is no tension.
On the other hand, a person has a lot of money, but despite having a hundred-story house, he does not get sleep in his head. That's why you have to learn to be happy with little. Even if you have a small amount of earnings, you can do well if you can make an excellent distribution with that money.

I find this post so funny because there is no way you are going to give me 10 Bitcoin and I wouldn't be happy, my inner joy will forever remain happy anytime I view my wallet and see the balance chilling on my wallet address. If money doesn't bring happiness, a lot of wealthy individuals would have give their assets to charity and remain poor, don't ever listen to those motivations of wealthy people that has already made it, those talks prove nothing until you make yours.

As for the man, the family of th decease were unhappy about what the media posted, they feel the media and blogs were unfair to him the way fake news was posted about his death and I see this as a result of poor journalism, they didn't do proper research about the cause of his death because that wasn't what the family of the man said about him. A proper investigation is currently under the ground about the Real cause of his death, who knows if he was killed in his home because of some business deals.

Money doesn't guarantee happiness, it's true. That's why successful people end their lives in bad ways, and make no mistake, there are also many poor people who end their lives in bad ways. It's all because they have no purpose in life, no mentality, and can't control their emotions.

If rich people commit suicide, they usually fall into poverty and are unable to start from the bottom, perhaps this is one factor. And it could also be because there is no purpose in life, if he becomes rich and has everything but does not have a purpose in life then his life will be empty. After all, having a lot of money doesn't mean he can control his own emotions and mentality. Many rich people commit suicide because they don't have a goal in life, they start to get bored with their life, maybe because in difficult times they have their own targets, then when they become successful they start to get confused and don't know what else to do. so they commit suicide (this happens a lot in Japan).

That's why I agree with Bill Gates and Melinda Gates, they are successful, their children are safe, they choose to help other people. why is that important? because they feel needed by others. Why do many poor people become strong? because they survive for the sake of their children. there is someone who needs you that makes you think twice about ending your life, there is someone who needs you to stay alive. So believe me, surviving is also a successful achievement.

I have not read or done any research about how many people commit suicide in Japan and why they do it, but I don't agree with what you said about people having no goal in life after one point. For me, this is impossible for a human to have no goals because a human will always be greedy by nature, no matter who it is, even those who say they aren't greedy for more things in life, lie to themselves, and deep inside, there is always something that they want.

Those who commit suicide are the ones who don't have any managerial abilities, they can't manage their problems in an effective way which leads them to try to run away from their problems and you can't do that as long as you are alive. If you have problems, you have to face them and solve them using your brain and understanding, and if you fail to do that, you will try a way to skip and for some people, that way is committing suicide which is absurd.

Someone with good managerial abilities would know how they should distribute their wealth and what things they should do if they don't have any personal desires. Millions of people need the basic necessities of life in all parts of the world. If you are rich and have nothing to do, go and help those people, you will get an activity to do and they will get some help. Killing yourself thinking that you have no goal in life is a lame thing, in my opinion.

Agree on this. Sometimes, money is not just all we need but even the simple things in life bring incomparable happiness. Money could be the ultimate need for survival, but it won't guarantee happiness. People can only be happy if they live without pressures and stress, just living a simple and good life where peace of mind is free and incomparable.

If you can try to be happy with money apart from your physical health then it is possible. Money is very important in this world, he who has no money understands the importance of money. You travel to poor countries and you give small children a packet of biscuits and they are much happier. The difference is that if you do the same thing in a rich country, no one will accept a packet of biscuits from you. You have money, you will have a good position in society, you have enough money, you are an important member of the family. If you have money you can do anything anytime you want, you can buy a luxury house if you want and you can buy a luxury car if you want. These things will definitely keep you happy. But I mentioned at the beginning that some physical illness or mental disturbance are different things but apart from these it is definitely possible to be happy with money.

It is possible for someone to get their happiness apart from having a lot of money, as you said, it is very true that health is more important than money, because we have seen many people who have a lot of money but not their health, of course this is very unpleasant because they have money but not with their health and it would be better if we could enjoy what we have got and not complain about what we have not been able to achieve.

As you said, it is very true for some people in poor countries, they would be very happy if someone came to give them help because they don't have anything they need and things are different if we give to those who have everything, of course they don't need what we need. give it because they can have it themselves.

If you are on a condition or having a life on which you are really just that sitting on poor or below average earner or when it comes to financial aspect then the main thing that you would really be having in mind is to have tons of money so that you could really be able to buy all the things you do want on which this one would really be that totally different into those people who are sitting in the pinnacle of success on which they do have almost everything in terms of financial but we know that there are things which cant be able to buy with money such as love and respect. This is why the current condition on which you are sitting would really be always
be the main factor on which a certain person would really be trying out to have those wishes into their mind.

This is why we cant really be able to blame them if they would really be focusing that much when it comes to money or wishing that they do really want to become rich.
This is why it would be something that situational on what a certain person would really be hoping on.

Even though I support the notion that money doesn't guarantee happiness, I can't agree one particular case can be a proof of anything. People are different, and what is not enough(or just is not needed) for one person to be happy can be just the right thing for another. I read somewhere that there is a threshold, a certain amount of income per year, after which getting more doesn't make you happy, but up to this threshold every additional $200 make you happier.

Since we are in the Economics section, I think it's worth reminding that money is the blood of economy. Let's respect it.

But I don't understand women and their position about money at all. They absolutely do not know how to save money, and they all try to spend it on expensive stupid things, which also devalue over time. For example, an iPhone. Yes, I would rather buy high-risk altcoins with my money, and it will be much more useful. Money needs to be handled carefully. Why do many people forget that if you do not spend a dollar, then you will always have it and it will not disappear anywhere.

Just as money is needed in life, there is no happiness and peace in life if there is excess money. We should earn money honestly and earn just enough money to live a happy and peaceful life with family.  There will be no peace in the family from the time it is started. So we should always try to earn money honestly. If a person does not have money then that person will be of no value to the society. Likewise if an uneducated person has a lot of money.  If there is a lot of money then that person will be respected a lot by the people of the society. After all money is no alternative to live in these societies.

Being poor is not the best option for you to be happy, but I agree with you that money doesn’t guarantee happiness, some riches wishes that for them to be rich because of the challenges that they are facing, they should rather be poor, for them to have peace of mind, money does not matter what matters the most is happiness, if someone is wealthy and has a lot of money as long as the person is not happy, he is not rich, because if the person doesn’t have peace of mind, how can he  pay more attention and secure his wealth for him to be more richer.

Money is just something that someone need to fulfill is worldly dreams but without happiness how can you stand up strongly to fulfill those dreams, Rich, poor, and happiness three of them are attach to each other, because if you are rich and you are not happy it is zero, and so also if you are poor and you are happy but you don’t have money it is still zero because your life won’t be balance and your goals won’t be accomplished. 

But no matter the situation and the challenges you are facing, suicide is not the best option, life cannot always give you reasons to smile, you just have to find a reason for yourself  to smile.
 

Not all women have the same nature as that because there are still many independent women who are able to earn money for themselves and their families. Some women do have the behavior you mentioned, but not all of them because there are still many women who are able to support themselves. If you have the ability to buy altcoins, it doesn't matter because every decision you make must be through careful consideration.

If money cannot be managed properly, it will be much more difficult to make the money more productive. Money can run out at any time if used in the wrong place, therefore having money must also have the ability to multiply. Because the level of productivity of money can be seen from the extent to which people can produce and maximize it properly.

When it comes to money talks then even into those people who are already that rich but still thriving out their very best to acquire more on which simply shows that there would really be no contentment when it comes to this manner and this is why you cant really be able to tell on who would really be that ones will really be having those kind of goals and perceptions in mind. We do know that money couldnt be everything
but we do know that this is something which you do really need for you to be able to make yourself survive on day to day living on which this would really be just that a normal approach to have.

Its really that normal that we would really be having that kind of goals in life but everything should really be that balanced because we do know that if you do focus too much in a single
point then any other things will really be that forgotten on which this would really be resulting into those non good results later on. This is why balancing everything
would really be that recommended but it cant really be just that avoided that there would really be those people who would really be focusing too much on making money.

Every single person on the face of the earth today is struggling to get as much money as they can, why? Because they know it's the most important thing to have in the world right now. You can't get or do anything without money, and when you can't do anything or get what you want to wish to have, I don't see how you can be happy in such conditions but some people still argue that money is not needed for happiness and I completely disagree with that.

Unless you live in the forests and have been living there forever and you hunt animals for food and drink water from rivers and links, you can't say that you don't need money for happiness because everything has a price tag these days and if you don't have money, you live your life in misery and no one can stay happy when they are miserable.

for me money is happiness and peace of mind but it's not life why because the life we live is the air that we breath, but if you look at things now and the cost of living it's all about money but sometimes we don't really know the root of how he made his money. Where money can give you peace of mind it's when you know how the root of your money it made, some people have made some sacrifice that have cost their lifes and sold their peace to the devil they can't rest. So for me money keeps some going in life.

Rich or poor, doesn't really matter. We must develop past this basic, monkey-brain impulse. Though it's just commercial crap, we are fed this delusion that money = happiness. Real protection? Not a lot of zeros on a screen; it's the tribe you got back

We hear of this future economy. It cannot be only a larger cash pile for the few. That is a disaster waiting recipe.  The game has to be changed. Not only should an economy line the pockets of the already wealthy, but it should also reward fixing actual problems, therefore improving everyone's quality of life. That kind of success really does have meaning

It's about correct use, not about waste of money. Money is a tool. It's about time we realised and created a planet that not only survives but also flourishes

Money can be a good source of happiness, but it can never guarantee a lifetime happiness. Money is just a material thing, what makes us genuinely happy are not those physical and material things but rather those that comes from our heart like real kindness, love and contentment in simple things that will definitely contribute to our peace of mind and soul. Other than that, everything that money brings may only lasts temporarily, but having pure joy and peace of mind will last eternally.

Everyone's life is different and the things that everyone likes and makes happy with are different. Happiness can sometimes come from even a small thing. In some cases, things done with money can bring happiness. In this regard, we should not think of money, happiness and the things that determine them separately. Just as money does not guarantee happiness, there are also people who are happy with money.

Everything that happens in human life is interconnected. Happiness can sometimes be simple and sometimes complex. You can be happy with or without money. The important thing is to be a good person.

Money can't buy happiness is something you can often hear from people who don't know what's it like to live without it. Sure, money doesn't fix all your problems, and you still have same problems with social life, repressed feelings, childhood traumas and what ever. But if you are dirt poor, there are so many more problems, and their priority level is life or death.

There are poor people who would be way happier to afford to have a roof over their head and one meal per day. They don't need millions of dollars to be happy. Rare people do. You can be happy just by knowing you have just enough financial security and can access to healthcare. And there's a minimum needed for that, and it that changes between countries income level and government support systems.

There's such thing as enough money, and everything else to top of that isn't really needed to live a happy life. In fact it can make you unhappy and scared for the security of your posessions.

Money doesn't solve your mental problems, but without it, those are pretty much guaranteed to come with the hunger and constant stress, at least in a country where you need money to live and raise your kids.

You are right that each person certainly has a different way of getting happiness and this really depends on the way they live their life and can accept all the achievements they have achieved and it is true that there are some people who have to spend a lot of money to be able to get happiness and There are also those who can feel happiness with things that don't require spending a lot of money and in this case I think it really depends on someone managing their own situation.
I agree with you that the most important thing in living this life is that we must remain good people so that we don't do things that are unnatural and also violate existing rules in order to achieve happiness.

For me, money is simply a source of pleasure, deeper and lasting happiness. It is a stable and sustainable emotional state. Happiness usually comes from within and is related to achieving long-term goals, feelings of accomplishment, and meaning in life. It can also be associated with healthy social relationships, feelings of acceptance, and emotional well-being.

Because sometimes it is difficult for us to differentiate between happiness and pleasure, even though both have different concepts, although they are similar, they actually have significant differences in terms of meaning, nature and impact on a person's life.

The main difference is that memories are because money tends not to last long, while happiness lasts longer. ON the other hand Happiness is more profound and complex than simple and surface pleasures. Happiness often comes from within and long-term accomplishments, while pleasure comes from external stimuli and momentary events. Like being able to buy luxury goods, being able to eat this and that and so on which are material in nature.

By understanding this difference, a person can focus more on achieving long-term happiness rather than just pursuing momentary pleasure. And usually people commit suicide because they only want to seek pleasure after finding that the pleasure of life has ended so that in the end they commit suicide in other words they have no real purpose and meaning in life.

Not only in this society OP, if you don't have money, you won't have peace anywhere. Nowadays, everything is becoming more complex in our daily lives. I don't know if this agitated world will ever calm down again. All this discrimination is created only for us; we have to change. You have to earn money the right way. Needs should be small; you will see happiness and peace. You can't do random things, you can't look at what people say behind you, you have to leave everything behind and move forward. Earn money, but your life will be full of happiness and peace.

Money cannot really bring happiness to a person whereas a sick person may have millions of money but he is not happy because of his health. On the other hand a healthy person can be happy only because of his health wealth even if he doesn't have money.  Then money has nothing to do with happiness in human life. But even if there is no money in life, people cannot live well, so it is necessary to have money in life and having too much money is not good either. That is, life should be managed in such a way that money is not the root of unhappiness.

Knowaday money is important for everything. Without money we can't able to do anything. So don't lose your money. It will be charge anything. It time to change. Money is not permanent anyone. So use the money safely for future purposes.

But it must be remembered that money is not everything and does not guarantee that people with a lot of money can get happiness or peace of mind. There are many rich people who commit suicide and that shows that money is not one of the reasons that makes people happier. Without money, you can't buy anything including life's necessities and money must also be used properly so that human life becomes more organized. Money can run out and will make people depressed so that it will cause problems in their lives.

Money is indeed needed in living life and money is an important thing for the process of human life. The use of money must be balanced in living life so that we can get happiness. Money is not brought to death so enjoy it reasonably while we are still alive and don't chase money too much so that we forget to create happiness and time with family.

That's how important the money in their life since the more they gain the more happier their life is. They can buy all things what they want also they could influence a lot of people especially right now in our society which people respect you depends on your financial capabilities. And most of those people been ignored are the ones who cannot provide. Yeah money will not guaranteed happiness but for sure you will not also get happy if you are struggling in life. Providing for basic needs is challenging if we don't have financial capabilities so people should not settle for less and don't make as excuse that money doesn't guarantee happiness since everything works if there's money involve in table.

So don't settle for less and always seek for opportunity so that we will not give any excuse that money will not guarantee us happiness.

In health yes we could provably agree all of this since even if we are the richest man in earth if we are so ill for sure our money cannot save us from the severe illness we are experiencing.

Who cares, money's great? You and I know it greases life. But to suggest it controls happiness? Quite the bro-science. See how miserable some billionaires are. Even though they have everything, they feel empty. That's because happiness isn't something you buy, it's something you create

No doubt, our world is crazy. Man, absurdity rules. Nothing has a natural meaning, but we can find our own. Do stack that paper, but also invest in experiences, relationships, and things that make you feel alive

About that influence thing. You may purchase fake friends and respect with money. Influence comes from within. It comes from understanding your worth and living your principles. How about valuing people for their social contributions rather than their cash accounts? That's my ideal world

It all depends on a person's habits in treating money when using it for anything in life, because you can see how poor people use money with rich people who have more money in life. So you will discover important knowledge through the use of money, where if people usually use money for things that they think are important and can also bring in more money after that, then that person will always be wiser when they want to use money. Meanwhile, people who usually often use money in the wrong places will always be like that because this has been influenced by their own habits in life so that people like that will still be poor in the end.

It is true that without money you cannot spend a single day because you will need daily necessities from morning till evening which you can never meet without money. If you have money, you can live your life for the time being by buying daily necessities even if you are not happy. If you don't have money you can't meet your basic needs without money and your life will become miserable.  So the need of money in life is immense and you can never deny the importance of money.

There are many factors that can guarantee happiness. But taking his life is not the solution so is he now happy in death? It is true that money doesn't guarantee happiness but not for everyone money is also happiness, money is life, money is health, money is wealth.
Check 95% of what is happening in the society today and ask yourself if all these things will still be happening if everyone should have the money, most time when we say money is not happiness it also depends on the source of income it depends on how you acquired your wealth. You can't tell me a man who has been poor for years will agree with you that money is not happiness.

Many people may still become rich and at the middle of their wealth challenges will still come but either ways we all need happiness.

Different each other's perspectives and if we live in an environment that is materially seen as someone who has authority then money is important. But from a different side we are also not always considered authoritative when we have a lot of money and live life not only talking about money but there are normal, social values and mutual cooperation traits that may still be maintained and preserved. I am not saying money is not important but do not be too greedy and chase finances too much because someone's happiness is at a different level.

It is much better for us to have a lot of money, have sensitivity, a sense of social and care for each other because this is the kind of life that is expected. But if we don't have a lot of money yet, then try to be a useful and needed person.

Life must be lived regularly, both looking for money, health and so on so that when talking about health we also have priorities that must be maintained. Find as much money as possible and live in peace and tranquility with family and people around you. Make life more colorful so that we will be remembered as people who care about others. Money is indeed very much needed, but don't just put money in living this life.

We also need to look at this from various angles because those who live in urban areas and are very close to the market certainly cannot deny the importance of money because most people always rely on money for their living. However, this can of course be denied by people who live in the mountains where they have a lot of agricultural products that they can consume every day without having to buy them from other people so they don't really rely on money if it's just for living.

It all depends on the nature of how we live, although basically everyone should not put aside money in their life because after all, one day money will still be needed when someone starts moving from a quiet place to a busy place. Because money is needed when someone has nothing to eat and needs to buy it when that person wants to eat as a means of living.

I can only add to what you said: we need money differently compared to the way we deify money. In our time, money is part of the things we need on a daily basis, such as food, bills, clothing, personal hygiene, and others.

Whereas when we worship money or pretend to be money, that is no longer good because that's where greediness comes in. The hoarding of piles of money and the fact that others do bad things just to have money is not the right thing to do for one person.

That's true, even though you don't feel happiness, fulfilling your needs is something that is mandatory because it is one way to survive and these needs can be met if we have a certain amount of money because to meet our needs of course we need money to buy what we need. Money does not guarantee victory but all money requires money because apart from fulfilling their needs, money is one of the things that many people want, I'm not sure there are people who don't want a lot of money, of course everyone wants or has a lot of money and to be able to have it. money of course we have to work hard to be able to make money. Even though money doesn't guarantee happiness, that doesn't mean that not having money is a safe situation.

Of course, everyone needs money, in some cases of crimes that occur, such as robbery, theft, they do it just to meet their basic needs. I remember there was a case about a parent who stole a can of milk just for his child, but he was sentenced to prison for quite a long time, I was concerned to see this case. I myself don't want to experience something bad like that, but if the thief's reason was clear, such as to meet his family's needs, maybe I wouldn't make a big deal about it, let alone lead him to the seller, maybe that would be too much.

You are right that these two things are very different, when someone needs money of course they will feel satisfied with what they have got and for some people who deify money of course they are willing to do anything to get money and they forget about themselves and most of these people are very greedy and they will never realize this until one day they are really tired of what they are doing, but for some people who earn money for their needs, of course they will be able to feel the slightest happiness they have. get it and this is not a problem for them because there will be another opportunity for them to get more than what they are currently getting.

You mean if you are courageous enough? Because, doing illicit activities are highly risky. I don't think we forget that there are lots of ways to become like him but we only think that they are not easy. They may not be easy but at least they are more safer, I mean in a way that you won't get chased by the cops and possibly got killed.

Sorry but I think that's funny. How can you be happy being poor if you don't have the money to buy food for example? Apart from it, let's be honest that the most common ones that can provide us a happiness are material things. Many of us always have their dream item like for example iPhone. They think it guarantees them happiness when they own it, which is true because I already saw lots of iPhone users who are happy right after they obtain it or even later down the road because they still use it accordingly.

Of course the need for money in life is immense. Money is needed to buy the goods that are needed to meet the basic needs of people. That is, money is integrally involved in every activity of life. Many people are not happy despite having extra money, maybe you don't need a lot of money to be happy, just a beautiful mind.

To be happy in life, you have to reduce your greed and needs. If you are satisfied with what you get, you will experience true happiness in life.

Yes, it is very difficult to go without money from morning to night. But for this money, all people work a lot and earn money from far away from family. A person needs money very much in the way of his life because if there is no money, then the family has no money.  No respect is earned. But if a person has money then he will become a respectable person to everyone so I think we need a lot of money to move on in life so if we can earn money honestly it will be very good for us.

That is what the main point is, if you have money you may not get happiness easily but you can try, if you are poor then even if you try you can't because you have no money. This is why people should look into trying to make some more money and that would be a lot better, having money and trying to be happy is easier. Obviously we are going to have a very few rare cases like this, but these are rare, most of the rich people are quite good and they do not have this type of situation at all.

I believe that we are going to end up with a greater result and much better life if you have money. Think about what you could have done right now if you had 50 million dollars, suddenly you are feeling happy even when you just think about it right? Well, that's great when you just think about it, imagine if you actually had it? That would mean that you are going to end up with a much better result without a doubt. This is why its important to have money.

Most of the rich problems aren't really about money but commoners like me would have a better life if I've got that money.

As people look at those problems from the rich and seems that they're just something to be noted for how colorful their lives are without having to worry with money.

But with most of us, the reality is we can do a lot of things with money. They might say it can't buy peace but it can give you peace and assurance that you won't be problematic about provisions tomorrow.

On the moment that you have reached that pinnacle of success on which you dont already have that problem when it comes to funds or financial aspect then usually the problem
of these rich people are only pertaining into that emotional aspect or something which isnt really that could be hold or something that could be possessed but rather they would really be
usually having those issues into something that pertains into those things which cant be obtained by money on which just like into those earlier responses on which they are really that actually
accurate and something that it is really that happening in real life.

There are indeed things on which money cant buy but for us people who are really that having that life on which we are just that depending or basing up with our day
survival from our day job then of course this one would really be our main problem.

Money is indeed a necessary tool to experience happiness. However, we all know living in this earth is not all about money in order to be happy. Sometimes, we need not to have plenty of money so we can live a simple and peaceful life, and yet we're still happy. I think as long as you have a sufficient amount of income to make you survive and enjoy your life, that already means a lot of happiness to me, no need to acquire a lot of wealth in order to be happy.

Yes, we can't deny that there are some people who are unhappy despite having money but in the end it's only a small percentage of the majority of people living today who consider money to be the benchmark. Including in this case me. Not to say that I am a servant of money but we also have to be realistic because in the end people who are unhappy when they have money are a small picture compared to the happiness that comes from money in the end.

Nowadays, we need money to do anything and it is unavoidable because after all, with the creation of money, its task has been functioned for that. Although in the end we also have to be able to control ourselves by thinking that it is money that must work for us not us who work for money but we cannot deny the existence of money today is always a benchmark of the source of happiness.

Yes, I think the sentence that says that money does not guarantee happiness is the rich themselves who already have wealth and their lives are guaranteed, so they deliberately make that sentence in order not to have competitors or so that people remain under them, because it is impossible for that sentence to come out of the mouth of a poor person who basically eats hard.

We may be able to distinguish when we are unhappy crying but sitting in a McLaren car and crying sitting on the side of the road, a different parable scheme with the same pain experience but with different circumstances, which may be able to recover quickly and be happy when having bad experiences in life, when we have money we can help more money, and what I feel when I see other people happy because I help them, I can feel happy too even though I am unhappy in other problems.

Yes, we just try to understand the reality that may happen to everyone, that money can give us more happiness in our lives.

How on earth are you saying this, we shouldn't lose our money and I'll ask, if we don't lose our money base on spending it how can we be comfortable or get things we want? If we don't spending it like you say it must warrant us to steal to get what we lack. Your words are confusing I must say, what's in the future that we must wait for it to serve as something more promising? Is best to say we invest our money wisely as it will become profitable in the future and if we keep it, holding it tight to ourselves it only means we plan to be stingy to ourselves because it won't yield anything useful in the future, but if we invest in something lucrative I believe we will benefit from the outcome of our investment.

I don't think that's the definition of the sentence, money doesn't guarantee happiness, it's more emotional and psychological. Happiness is not solely measured by the amount of wealth one has, inner peace or freedom from all emotional problems and feeling psychologically comfortable cannot be bought with luxury. Rich people always feel mental pressure because of infidelity which leads to arguments in the household and many other things that make rich people feel unhappy in their lives. I have to admit that living surrounded by luxury is very pleasant and everyone wants it, but there are things that luxury cannot buy and wealth is not the only way that can bring us happiness.

That's not the comparison, this is wrong in my opinion. When you are crying due to mental stress while sitting in a McLaren car while looking at poor people experiencing happiness with their families, of course you want a life like those who are always romantic with their partner and can gather with their small family all the time. Money is not the only way to get happiness, but it must also be complemented by non-material needs such as emotional and psychological.

But the fact is who gets more happiness, the rich or the poor?

I know that happiness is derived from such as emotional and psychological matters, but it can be formed and can be obtained from certain moments that can occur in life, do those who have money can't get together with family? and whether the rich can't create happiness for themselves with their spouses and other things? and whether poor people never divorce, never fight with their spouses? all of that is complete in life, the facts that you have to swallow divorce occurs because of economic problems and it is mostly among the lower classes, don't you know it too?


I agree that happiness cannot be measured by the amount of money, but happiness comes when what we feel from what we are grateful for and have in this life, but don't you feel happy when you can buy a house, a car for your family, is that enough to define?

yes, it is true that money is most needed right now and it is a must for now and always pay attention and that's not the comparison maybe you have to keep it safely, that's what you need to do and nothing is eternal with this money, and always pay attention the situation in getting money is that you can feel happiness and joy with a mood that continues to be eager to get it without money, we can't do anything so don't let your money disappear and you need to get money appropriately and not chase money so that we forget how strong we are to get it.

It could be said that this is true because if someone's peace of mind is caused by money, there will be many rich people whose lives are very peaceful.
In fact, there are still many rich people who do not get all of that and in fact they do not find peace at all with the abundant amount of wealth they have.
We will gain peace if we are able to be grateful for anything and we can share it with those closest to us. But even so, wealth will be much better as long as we can enjoy and share with each other, with wealth we can help other people so that they can gain happiness.

Money I really sense does not guarantee happiness irrespective of how the wealth was made, happiness and love are natural things and I believe it is given by God to us, I think it would have been better for us to say that with money we can afford some certain things but not all, in the aspect of health, majority of people in the world with some bad health conditions are wealthy people and sometimes I see this as nature, God can not allow a situation you can not handle to befall you, so that's why all this things seems like nature to me, wealthy men and women end up getting divorced based on tolerance which ordinarily a poor man and woman would have managed to settle such rift but just because of pride rich individuals divorce and continue to be unhappy, if we should put somany things into consideration, we will understand that most rich people are unhappy than the poor ones because of circumstances surrounding their personality.

A rich person whose life is not peaceful or cannot enjoy his prime is a rich person who has more problems or debts in his life so that he is always uneasy even though he has a lot of money by his side because he is not able to manage his work and the time he has very well. But try to look at rich people who live calm and peaceful lives while enjoying their wealth in this world, there are definitely good things they do in life but these things are still not done by other rich people in this world so there are still difficulties that occur in their lives even though they already rich.

You don't need a lot of money to be happy but without money it becomes very difficult to live well. So I think we should be busy earning as much money as we need to live happily and peacefully with our family. EXTRA MONEY  If there is no peace in the family, just like if there is no money, the family has to face many problems. To live happily and peacefully with the family, we should try to earn as much money as you need.

Most times you can't just judge a man by his actions but if you look indepth there is a cause towards his reaction and for that is always said that no smoke without fire. Meaning you need to know what is the man main purpose for taking his life and of course it's said that a dead man can't speak anything about his life except for his acquaintance of relative who are mostly close to him or those relatives he mostly confined on. But however, wealthy is never Joy neither can wealth bring happiness to a man's Life. You may have whatever you desired in life but when happiness is not found there then I can say that wealth is useless, periodically I have seen people who cried to go back to their previous and old lifestyle just to have peace than the present yet they can't turn the hands of time over again.

There is no substitute for money, no one can lead a good life without money. It is better to be rich than a poor man. People say that poor people can live in peace and sleep in peace. I don't agree with these things because peace is nowhere to be found without food in the stomach. Again it is also true that excess money robs people of peace. Because the more money he has, the more money he spends in the wrong way and if he spends money in the wrong way, he has to face various dangers.  Which will not let you sleep peacefully.  Money is very necessary in life but it is better to have it in normal amount. More is not good and also less is not good.

Having money takes away lot sad moment, depression. Finding it difficult to pay for your bills and to get the basic things in life can make one to be unhappy for a longtime.  Sometimes it is possible for one to have money and still be sad  but let's be Frank with ourselves having money brings happiness and makes one not to be bothered about your problems.  Money can solve most of the problems that happens to people,  this the reason why money bring happiness.

Regarding the issue of happiness in money, there are different views, some say that money is a source of happiness and there are also those who think otherwise, but in this case money is the key for some families to get happiness with this wealth, they will do poya poya with the wealth they have they have, but for me happiness in the family is not just money but the presence of each other to complete life and make it a joy.

Money is indeed very important in a household in meeting the financial needs of married life, but the source of happiness is not solely created by money, because happiness can come in a family that complements each other and makes it a harmonious family forever.

That solves our problem when we've got money. However, that doesn't mean that our problems will be stopped just because of it.

There are problems that won't be solved by money even if you've got a lot of it. But no doubt, that most of the problems can be easily dealt by having money.

That is the reality of life and that's why if you talk to people that are struggling to make ends meet, they'd discuss mostly about money.

If they have more debt then they are not said to be rich people, but rather people who are building wealth. Rich people actually don't have debt because logically they have money and what's the point of having debt?
On the other hand, with rich people whose lives are not peaceful and cannot enjoy the results of their wealth, this is because they are too stingy so that they cannot enjoy the results of their wealth with their families.
Even though this wealth is not taken with you until death and it is very disadvantageous to have money but cannot enjoy it during your lifetime. This kind of rich person will not find peace in his life because he is too stingy.

What I understand is that the needs of poor people are very small so they don't have any trouble or tension. Yes, we have to accept that those of us who are poor want a lot of money and wealth. And those who are rich want happiness and peace. This means that extra money means happiness.  Peace goes away and there is a lot of chaos in the world. But I don't want to be rich and I don't want to live as a poor person.  Income should be earned and avoid spending extra money. Spending extra money can lead to many problems and get involved in various kinds of trouble.

Funny brother. There is nothing that beats one's happiness. In fact where you don't get happiness, you are prone to many troubles including high blood pressure. Although money can go along way to helping you take care of the challenges and health issues that will come but then such person would look miserable without good health because in and out hospital and medication are factors that you would meet daily. I have heard that some people in the bid to be wealthy have also sold out in different blood convenant and that would eventually take their lives. 

I don't think he meant it from that angle. He is saying that money is what make a person a man, without money you are nothing, without money you wouldn't be respected, without money you will only be having bills upon bills to sort out and he is right. Today is different from yesterday where money don't use to be the measurement of life, even the social media has made it worse where you see people been influence to get rich quickly.

I was on TikTok yesterday evening and I came across one video on my FYP and there was this video about one girl, she was dancing and saying "if you don't have money, you don't deserve her" and I saw the comments was more than 10k and I knew something is cooking on the comments. I went through the comments and people were bashing her saying she is barely 15 years old and yet she is making such kind of content. This is now the society we have found ourselves because we build it like that and it's very wrong.

Money doesn't guarantee happiness as we can tell. Those who don't have the money are bittered about why they have no money. If many of us are asked, what will make us complete in life, we will say it is money before we mention any other thing. However, many of us see money as the key thing we ought to achieve in life, whereby everything we do hovers around it. Not forgetting to state that with money, you have the best medication, education, healthcare, enjoyment, house, etc. All these mentioned can give you a life fulfilling happiness than when you are poor, living on someone else care, and expenses to have a happy and fulfilled life

Yes that's right. Wealth does not guarantee happiness, many rich people wallow in wealth but do not have peace of mind. Because basically we can achieve success or peace if we are grateful and help each other because of course life must have a purpose, not only materially but also spiritually.

It is very realistic that money can make you happy, but as long as you have money and know how to use money wisely because money can help us realize what we want. But once again, if money is not used wisely, it will actually bring sadness and even disaster in life.

Almost all of us agree that wealth is important, but it is not one of the keys to happiness and peace because peace and happiness are our own way of creating it.
Material and spiritual have different functions, but both can be interconnected with each other, material has a relationship between wealth that can be used to help each other, while the spiritual dimension can have cultural-like characteristics, especially for the purpose of morality in general.

Money must be used wisely and money can also run out if it is not used for more productive things.
There are many rich people who end up bankrupt and there are many rich people who do not find peace and happiness in life.

Bro, are you talking of peace of mind or happiness? Because what am seeing here, you are trying to make both of them looks as if they are the same, which they are not, happiness and peace of mind are totally different things apart.

Secondly, concerning what you are actually saying, you need to understand that happiness is a choice, regardless of your financial status, you can choose to be happy or sad, and as for peace of mind, that is what wealth and poverty can't gives you.

So stop trying to make it looks as if poverty is better, because we all know that having money makes life easier, and it can enhance the environment that can gives you peace, so my brother,that man than took his own life did that due to his personal problem, which he felt like he just want to end it all, everyday people are commiting suicide nowadays not because of their financial status, but due to depression and some other stuff, so I believe this particular news came to your notice because he is wealthy, or you think it's only the rich that take their own life? So in essence is that, it's more likely for someone to contemplate suicide as a poor man, due to difficulties, than a wealthy person.

What’s wealth? Wealth is being financially stable with all the resources including asset, investment etc, money was never meant to guarantee happiness or change life challenges of any human on earth. Money can actually solve problems of different kind but, the problem is money can’t stand as a defense against death or depression. So bad, rich people no longer find happiness due to some certain reason not related to finance but, it’s obvious a lot of poor people need money badly and vow never to take their life despite their poor situation. Humans sometimes get confused after attaining their desired height in essence no human is satisfied enough, it’s best you still work hard to gain wealth not minding the poor or rich quote going around because yours might be different.

I understand the point you are making. Wealth does not guarantee that someone will get eternal happiness, because wealth can only solve life's problems but cannot solve the problem of peace because we can get peace if we understand the true meaning of life. Just look at people who are poor (enough) but happy and peaceful in their lives, this shows that money is not everything, even though money can produce everything, in essence we are good at being grateful for what we get.

Lasting happiness does not always depend on wealth, although money can provide comfort, money is not the only factor. Because true happiness means we have good relationships with family, neighbors, other people, good physical health and individual achievements that we should be grateful for. Without this, everyone will not have peace in life, many people even commit suicide because they do not understand the true meaning of life.

Wealth is always closely related to money and the more money we have will make us rich. But if calculated wealth always does not have a definite value because one person with another has a difference in the amount of wealth they have. Then how can we conclude that someone has wealth while others are above their wealth. Death and depression are not only seen from people who live hard and have difficulty meeting their needs because there are many rich people who also commit suicide with various problems they face. Of course if wealth was the cause, maybe rich people would not commit suicide and they should be much happier than people who do not have money.

No human being is satisfied with the wealth they have and so on they will try to increase their sources of income to become richer. But at the point of happiness, comfort and peaceful life with family they may not be able to get it. The key is to be grateful and try to live simply so that there are no problems that cause depression or feel lonely.

Different people and different financial statuses would really be having that different conditions when it comes to problem on which it's the that there are rich or wealthy people do commit out suicide just not because about finances but rather on emotional aspect on which we do know that there are really people who are really that too weak when it comes into other aspect.Money can't bring out that total happiness but majority or most cases on which. Money will really be that primary concern on trying to accumulate and save up on other things as well on which this is our main priority specially to those who do sit on .

Yep. Everyone should agree that wealth is needed. However, having the wealth sometimes doesn't guarantee the happiness. It is because happiness is something a bit complicated, it is not always related to the wealth. Even if someone has limited funds, he can happy if he lives around his lovely people. Meanwhile rich people may be not happy because they have no time to gather with their lovely people. This is one of the examples of happiness that doesn't rely on the wealth.

TBH, I don't really get your point. However, wealth or money has crucial role in our life. If we have no money, it may bring bad impact on our mentality. If we have enough money, it is probably easy to have healthy mentality. But if we have no money, how we may have healthy mentality or healthy mind? This is just a simple relationship between wealth/money and spiritual side.

Good financial management is needed to use the money wisely. In this way, we know about the priority and non priority. Sometimes it is easy to spend money for useless thing if we don't have good money management. We must know how to allocate the money in a proper way. This will lead us to use money as effective as possible.

By the way, rich or poor people can have no peace in his life if they don't know how to make it. It is applied to anyone, it is not for rich people only!

well, there are so many other important things that even if there was money, we wouldn't be happy. There are many parameters regarding happiness. as you said, health, education, family, and many other things that even when we have a lot of money, it cannot guarantee us happiness.
However, one important aspect in supporting a person's happiness is a very good economic situation. With this, we can fulfill all the needs that we or our family have, and this encourages us to be happier. However, money does not guarantee happiness, but one factor that can make us happy is money. Like, if someone gave you $1 million dollars right now, I think someone would be very happy.

Although it does not guarantee happiness as mentioned but money is a major factor in everyday life. I believe that if someone gets large amounts of money then he will definitely be very happy. But on the other hand health is also a very important thing to maintain and also need money. So I don't really believe it fully if money will not guarantee anything in life. I can only think objectively.

Nowadays money is imporatant thing every where. It never will be skip. Money not stable to every one. So it will be change anytime. Save the money for your future purpose. Money value is any time to change. Monay is imporat for the finacer process. It help to country people gowth and count finacer details easy to gather.

Money does not guarantee happiness, but someone who has money can be happy more easily than someone who does not have money. Someone who couldn't be happy despite having a lot of money probably couldn't be happy without money either...

I think money is a rational commodity. It is calculable and predictable. We can only analyze our experiences with money on a rational plane. If we try to analyze our experiences with money on an irrational plane, we will probably be unhappy even if we are rich...

I would add that without money it is very likely that you will be not happy most of the time. I'd say, it's not about being happy, but about not being unhappy and even miserable in your everyday life.


People that are unhappy while having a lot of money, just don't know to what extent of unhappiness they would descend having no money at all.


There are a lot of people who are rich and still unhappy, but that doesn't imply that money won't make a poor person happy. It most likely will. So, if you are poor, don't think "Money doesn't guarantee happiness" and do nothing. Work hard and try to make more money.

Money is important, of course, but it is simply an intermediary between us and happiness. Green pieces of paper by themselves cannot make anyone happy. Of course, they provide many opportunities, but the fact is that there are some things that cannot be bought. I believe that the most important thing in life is family, and love cannot be bought.
Yes, it’s banal, but you need to develop inner qualities in yourself, and only then will those around you truly respect you.

Miserable to the fact that they can't buy their needs if they don't have money.


Its just they have other personal issues that can cause them sadness especially if their relation to other people is affected for sure this is the main concern of those rich people since other than that I guess they don't have a problem since their wealth could fill those things what they need.


Overall point of this people should not stop grinding because they read that money can't guarantee happiness since this is just a lame excuse of people who suffer from poverty. If they want to get out on that situation then they should work to gain a lot of money since for sure everything will follow.

Because in the end, everything really depends on the mindset. We must be aware that the thinking for people whose economic strata are at the bottom definitely wants a luxurious life so that they have an ambition where there is a life goal that they want to achieve, namely a glamorous life in the sense of having a lot of money so that they buy without having to bother thinking about the nominal and it can be categorized as a source of happiness for them because indeed they have never felt that way. But it is different with those who are already rich and have abundant money because they have actually achieved goals that others have not even been able to realize so that they (who are already rich) are confused that their standard of happiness is actually not money anymore but others are different from poor people who are sure that their standard of happiness is more based on money and I am included here.

So when those who say money is not a source of happiness, they have actually gotten and felt it and I think even then it is only a small portion and those of us who are alive who dare to say that money is not a source of wealth because no one really does not need money until now.

When you think about it you have to be more objective, especially if it is about money, because whatever the environmental conditions we live in now, of course money will still be needed in the end. So it cannot be denied that everyone always tries to get as much money as possible through their work in order to achieve a sense of happiness that they may still have hidden in their hearts because they don't have more money in their lives.

And I also don't believe that there are rich people who say that money can't bring happiness to your life. Because when he becomes rich by having a lot of money, he will definitely feel more happiness in his life even though money can also make a person ruined if it is not managed well in better things. Because the trigger for destruction in a rich person is when he doesn't know how to manage money and also always uses it in places that are not good enough for him.

Money, Money, Money.
Nowadays, wherever we go in the world, we hear only desire for money from all people. Living in modern society people have reached a point where they feel happiness in nothing but money.
Maybe money is not the root of all happiness, still people are not happy without money. There are many rich personalities in the society who have endless money but they are not happy mainly because they are greedy. Happiness is a state of mind, the more joy you experience in everything, the happier you will be. I think to be happy we need to be satisfied with little so that we can control our greed. A person whose greed or need is less is happy because he is satisfied with little.

Money do not really guarantee happiness, happiness is subjective,and it goes on from person to person.
 But when a person has a good financial stability it also contribute highly to the person comfort.
True happiness can come from people you love,doing the things you love most,, going to places you love to be like going on vacation, spending more time with family, having an healthy life,achieving those things you love in life,all of these can contribute to the true happiness of a person.
True happiness Doesn't really rely on money.

In living this life of course everyone needs money to be able to meet all their needs and it is very difficult if we don't have money to be able to meet the necessary needs and I don't agree with you that someone who gets a lot of money will be able to get happiness and in terms of happiness of course This will really depend on how someone interprets their life and when they are satisfied with what they have got of course they will easily be happy, but we also see that those who have a lot of money are still looking for happiness in something they can get. where they don't have to spend money.

In my opinion, to maintain health you don't have to spend money, but when we feel sick that's why we have to spend money for treatment and while we still have health, of course we have to take good care of it and don't need to spend money. Don't forget our own health when making money, of course this is very important.

I once saw a movie from Japan 'Okuotoko (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7754284/plotsummary/?ref_=tt_ov_pl)' where it tells about a situation where money sometimes ends up being a source of problems for the main character and his family whose life becomes like a roller coaster when the main character who has no money and becomes a millionaire but loses his wife because he is too obsessed with money.

This movie also tells us that in the end, money and wealth are indeed important things to have but that doesn't mean we have to be someone who only focuses on money and doesn't care about other things including family and spouse.
I learned quite a lot from this because in the end, even though money is important for the life we live, we must realize that we must be able to control the activities we do so that money does not become a source of problems for us. Because in the end, when we only live and focus on money, we will forget the conditions around us, including love for our family because our focus is only on wealth.  Indeed, as much as possible we should try to get our own version of money and wealth but that does not mean we have to sacrifice feelings which in the end this becomes a new problem that makes us unhappy despite having money.

Money doesn't guarantee happiness, there's a lot of people that are rich and are not happy maybe due to some issues boarding them health issues or some personal problems they have.a lot of rich people have secrets that hunt them either the way they got there money or somewhere they have put there hands into,or not having peace in your home because of the kind of wife you got married to.

There are many people having money and they are not having happiness, this is because they know the source to their money personally, we don't have to rush in terms of looking for money in other to make survival, everyone will make it at his right and appropriate time, which calls for us not to rush to make it in life, I've seen many who havebthe money but lack the happiness to enjoy the money they have, while dome could not be rich but were being contempted with what they have and they are having the happiness they want.

Usually wealthy people does have these type of possible problems despite on having tons of money.

1. Incurable diseases (ex. Cancer etc.)
2. Love
3. Respect
4. Wanting to have a child (,can't make one)
5. Can't still achieve their wish despite of financial capability.

Somehow it's really that hard to believe that someone who does have money will be having problems since you do have everything but in reality its not,just like into those things mentioned above. For most people then we are that thriving on everyday for us to become rich because once we do have that money then we can say that we can be happy and this is fact.

Having a lot of money is of course everyone's dream, even though it doesn't guarantee happiness, but I don't think there is anyone who doesn't want to have a lot of money. by having a lot of money we can buy what we want, but we need to know that there are things that money cannot buy such as time, many people waste their time just because they are trapped in comfort that is not profitable. People who have a lot of money usually have relationship problems where they have a poor family relationship, such as a husband and wife who have the same career and they are very focused on their career so they don't have time to be together.

We must be able to utilize the money we have and be grateful for the money we have. If we don't have a lot of money we have to earn it by working because even though money doesn't guarantee happiness, money is an important thing in life that must be had so that we can survive Apart from that, there are many people whose economic conditions are middle to lower, but they can be grateful for what they have so that they can enjoy life well that is something that must be taken into account.

But between choosing to be rich but not happy and poor but not happy, which will you choose? Being rich does not guarantee happiness because happiness is not just about having a lot of money but it is certainly better than having no money and no happiness.

Money may not buy true happiness, but no happiness will follow us if we don't have money. Especially those who are married and have children will understand that not having a lot of money will never be happy, those who say they feel very happy even though they don't have much money are because they have surrendered to fate and failed on the path to getting rich. Money does not guarantee happiness, but certainly for a person to achieve true happiness, money is indispensable.

Wealth is not a guarantee for happiness, but wealth is the solution to many problems. Suppose there is a rich person and a poor person, both of them face the same problem. A rich person will get out of this problem by using his money but it will not be as easy for a poor person to get out of there as for a rich person, so those who say that money is nothing are also wrong. And those people who say that money is everything, I also call them wrong.

The truth is that people are never happy with their situation, rich people think that money is a problem, and those who are poor think that if they don't have money, then there is a problem. You can buy physical peace with money, but mental peace cannot be bought with money, however, a lot of mental tensions can be caused because of not having enough money to be able to do certain things.

Because money is just an instrument for happiness, and it can only provide more different ways to achieve happiness. Despite money does not guarantee happiness, and a lot depends from a person, money can greatly influence on persons level of happiness. Not popular opinion, but with money, people can visit psychologist, who can try to fix persons mind, in situation when a person is simply unhappy or is so spoiled and bored, that nothing makes him happy anymore.

Money is a tool to achieve certain happiness, someone can be happy with the ownership of money, yes although all happiness does not always have to use money, but money is indeed one of the important tools to achieve happiness today.

This is not without reason, because indeed we are pushed so far with a life based on money, unlike in other parts of the world that do not talk about money, such as rural environments, they can feel true happiness in life because it is purely not pegged to what money can access.

Indeed, the discussion on this issue will never end because it depends on each person's point of view, different people have different points of view. But what is clear is that money is also important for living life because in today's life nothing is free, everyone has to use money.

However, basically money is only a material for buying and selling goods and services. So what we have to understand is that we have to be able to differentiate between happiness and pleasure. What is the definition of happiness? What is the definition of fun?

Sometimes we easily believe that if we have a lot of money or are rich, that is a happy life. Because what we often see are rich people who only look happy because they can own luxury products. But we don't know that rich people also have lives full of problems that cannot be solved with money. Rich people also commit suicide because they are unhappy. There are also cases of rich families where the relationship between parents and children is not harmonious, even though their finances are not lacking. Or a husband and wife who are rich but often fight. If pleasure can be bought and sold, then there are nightlife or recreation products. But can Happiness be sold? Of course not, right?

Let me be honest with you, money is everything and money can solve everything except death, that's a nature that you can't cheat but every other things has a price. You see this particular guy, what happened to him is what we called wealth declination. He was once the CEO but things weren't going well and it affected him psychologically and he became unstable according to the family. Everyone has their broke level, the public might be seeing him as someone with wealth but deep down, he is broke.

Elon Musk is worth billions today but if Elon Musk is dropped from the top of the list of 100 richest people, a lot of people that has not experienced wealth creation before will see him as rich person but to him, he will see himself as failure, as a person who never made it in life and perhaps that may even lead him into depression and if care is not taken, he might commit suicide, this is exactly what I think happened to these man we are talking about.

Well I wouldn't want to argue too much on this matter but know it too well that money doesn't solve everything neither does money give happiness or Joy. Do you know that if the money you have doesn't give you what you are looking at then we can say that money doesn't solve any of your problems, realistically I have seen people who are extremely wealthy but doesn't have joy in them because things they were expecting didn't work they as planned some of them where even crying for the money to go let them have their normal and usual life back but it's too late to reverse it not by bad ways but other ways round.

As money gives us happiness, money also brings us many dangers. So first of all you have to learn money management. Proper use of money can only bring you happiness. When you don't know the proper use of money, money will act as poison for you and money will not let you sleep. So it can be said that money is not the root of all happiness but it cannot be fully believed.  Because without money we cannot manage our life.  In today's world, without money, you cannot convince anyone of your worth

It is true that there are many people who have a lot of money but in fact they are not happy, maybe they got the money illegally, not from their own sweat and they are afraid to spend the money even though their initial goal is to get happiness with lots of money, in fact money becomes a burden on their mind. they get which of course reduces the impact on the quality of life they have.

Jumping off a roof to take one's life has to be one painful death and doesn't guarantee success of completing the mission either  ::)

Anyway, like they say " more money, more problems" being worthy doesn't mean all problems disappear with money, if you don't have the social intelligence you could get depressed for friends or family not hanging around, maybe the man fail out of love etcetera...I believe his last call that went to the brother should have explained everything otherwise it's all speculation for now.

for people who don't have a lot of wealth or live in poverty, it must be very strange when they hear the news of rich people committing suicide because according to poor people, the saddest thing is when we don't have wealth because by not having wealth, living this life is certainly very difficult because in In everyday life, of course we need money and how sad it is when we don't have a lot of money or wealth.

but of course it's true that money doesn't guarantee happiness because basically everyone has their own problems, but of course there are also many people who don't have money who commit suicide. Of course in this case it comes back to each individual and what is certain is that everyone has their own way of enjoying this life. but what is clear is that things like this are common among human beings, but of course in my personal opinion it is still better to have a lot of money than to have no money, which would definitely be very sad.

Yes, I hope we all get the happiness of lots of wealth and money accompanied by eternal happiness.

Yes, we will not find an end to this discussion and the debate whether money is a source of happiness or not depends on each person's point of view, I also realize that.

The point of the conclusion is, pursue what makes you happy, whether it's having a lot of money or not, it depends on your goals, I think that's the way to end this endless debate.

I understand our perspectives have many differences, and the happiness we want must also be different because that is the basis why we have different opinions about money, and moreover we have different life experiences so that the direction of the wind regarding a discussion will be different.

But we are both looking for happiness in this life, so achieve the happiness that you want to get.

You don't have to swallow things like that because it could be something that was deliberately created by some rich people so that poor people don't work hard and don't want to become rich and become their rivals in this world. This means that anyone, including you, must be very, very wise in responding to statements like that. Because when someone else asks you "don't you want to be rich" I think you will give the answer "you do" even though you won't say it directly in your own mouth, but our own heart will not be able to lie to something like this.

So be wise in responding to anything because rich people who have a grateful heart and are willing to help and share with difficult people who need help are the happiest people in this world. Because you can prove it yourself that a stingy rich person will never be happy even if he has a lot of money because he is always worried when someone is able to steal his money even though the amount stolen is small. So be rich and useful and don't be stingy in helping so that we can get true happiness in this world.

In my opinion, money is indeed important for meeting basic needs and providing comfort, but true happiness often comes from relationships, health, and inner fulfillment. Focusing too much on material things can distract from what truly brings happiness.

That's what is being debated and actually people commit suicide not because of financial problems but because they feel the impact of excessive depression. People who are facing big problems will definitely think beyond reason and it is difficult for them to think positively to solve problems. Money can provide happiness but that is only related to finances and the issue of peace and happiness money is not a supporting factor because there are many other supports needed.

Looking for money is necessary and can be said to be very important but we also need to find happiness, peace and time with family, so that from there we find happiness and peace. Don't misunderstand money because there is no guarantee that money is a factor in happiness.

In most time it is a spiritual thing and if the person is not strong believer of Christ then it will happen this way. And they are sometimes those who are wealthy and die early have put themselves in somewhere like "Doctor Festus". Novel. And also Started it clear in the book of Matthew 4:9. The devil is always looking for whom to devour. Always pray when you sleeping and waking up. Prayer cancels untimely dead. There are time pressure also make people to do such things. Op you have to know that dead is inevitable. So as a man be brave  and always on the alert. Pray always.

Money can bring happiness to people only when a person can manage money properly and ensure its proper use. I think happiness is relative. Because sometimes happiness cannot be measured by money but money is needed to be happy in life. But the main thing is mental. That is if we can be satisfied then our happiness will come otherwise it will not come.

Money is important today because it can bring happiness but on the other hand it doesn't guarantee your happiness. However, I don't know if we are reasoning it differently but with my understanding I can that money is very important to the word because no one can do without it.
Moreover, some reasons why most people are not happy when they have money is either because of the kind of things they put their hands but it's important for one to wait without just sitting down. When I mean patiently waiting I mean that the person really needs to work with everything he has gotten. Just like some rich people, some of they are deptors and they are living very well. Although life is risky that's why we need to be conscious of the kind of things we do so that we won't implicate ourselves in future. Also, one need to have investments because without investments your riches won't stay long.

"everyone will get it at the right and right time" that sounds like we don't need to do anything, I mean as if we just sit there and wait for a miracle, but of course it's not like that. We have to look for ways and try to get money because basically money has to be sought, not waited for. I don't agree that we have to just sit around without taking any action to get money. Apart from that, basically we have to try to survive by meeting our needs and our needs will be met when our finances are stable.

People usually think that all rich people have guaranteed happiness, whereas the reality is not like that, because there are definitely families who are rich but have problems, whether financial or other, they are just good at hiding their problems and it should be like that, but for us it's better I don't think that every rich person must be happy and we don't need to be humble because basically we are the same, it's just that our financial and financial situations are different and we can change things for the better if we can try.

Even if we do say that you are not having that good control or manage of your money on which you could be still happy specially on the time or moment you've been spending like a madman.We do know that human beings are that loving money or simple being materialistic on which we would be aiming on a life ok which tons of money that we do possess and on the moment you do find yourself on such state then you are already that satisfied.Those people who are really that on the state or moment that they have everything then mostly the problem that they do have will definitely pertaining into those problems when it comes to other aspects on which money can't be able to buy.So it would that understandable that problems encounter will be on those things on which it can't be bought by money and there are indeed thing in life on which it can't be bought by money.This is why it would be situational and something that would be considered.

money is everything and everything needs money, by having money happiness will come. They made portraits of poor people laughing out loud, then they said that happiness is not just about money and wealth. However, in reality, they feel very confused and even frustrated because they don't have money, they are still confused about whether they can eat every day. And there are quite a few people whose families are destroyed and just end their lives just because of the economic and financial problems they face.

And after that they made a portrait where a rich person was feeling sad, and then they concluded that money and wealth do not bring happiness at all. However, in reality, with the wealth and financial freedom they have, they really feel happy with the wealth they have.

Even though it is not a guarantee, money can bring someone closer to happiness. I think many people will agree with that, because financial freedom allows a person to freely live their daily life without the pressure of life. Crying in the house is better than crying under the bridge, I think that is a very relevant example. Not all information and words of wisdom that spread on the Internet are good, we must have a filter before deciding to believe it.

It is true that there are some things in this world that cannot be judged with money as a measuring tool, such as health, I think that cannot be denied. But in many cases, especially in any social environment, money plays an important role in determining a person happiness. In the smallest scope, such as family, money is the main factor so that household integrity remains for a long time.

Many issues can cause him to do that. Moreover not all money can guarantee your happiness, sometimes you have to in the the depths of pain even though you are rich, but mind you, without money you will find it hard to survive and it is been said that all human beings will never be pleased in life, that is why we will never be perfect is either you are rich and not happy or you are poor and happy or you are even both which is poor and still not happy. Those are the type of people that usually commit suicide because they feel like no one know about them even there creator,

So in life any situation you found your self you should always give thanks to god, because he knows what he is doing but some people tend to rush and that is what will give them the mind to go and get their wealth in the fastest way which might lead them to and unhappy lifestyle and full or regret.

Happiness is not seen from how much wealth and money we have because actually happiness cannot be measured by the financial capabilities we have.
Happiness is something that most people seek and happiness will not be obtained if someone is too busy pursuing wealth.
Money is indeed needed to support life, but having money and not having time to enjoy it will not achieve true happiness and peace.

The relationship between wealth and spirituality is quite close and with money we can help other people so that spiritual values will grow.
Money is very important, but it is not a way to get happiness and peace.
People who like to give will definitely get something more because people will pray for us. The power of giving is sometimes beyond our ability to think because the more we help other people, our sustenance will continue to increase and that is real.

The first thing is not mental if someone wants to be happy in their life, because the main thing that is more appropriate for getting that happiness is to increase gratitude for what we have got so far so that the benchmark is not only money. This means that everyone can become rich because they have a lot of money and also because they already have many luxurious assets in their life, but to be happy is actually very simple, namely just by feeling enough and saying thanks for what we have now. So what you say is also true that things related to happiness cannot always be measured by the amount of money, even though money is one of the factors that can bring happiness to people who previously did not have money.

It is true that happiness can never be valued with money and also without money it is difficult to get happiness. But it will depend on people's mind. If a person wants happiness then he needs everything he wants. However, although money has nothing to do with happiness, indirectly money will play a major role. I think a person is happy only if he can fulfill what he wants. And there are many who live in poverty but consider themselves happy. Those who have a lot of money are not happy but are among the most unhappy. Being happy and unhappy will depend entirely on a person thought. Those who can find themselves happy in little things are the happiest people.

Well I do not think money will guarantee us happiness. The reason is because it has been written and said by many wise men. We forget in the pursuit of making more money to achieve financial freedom, we often make the mistake of not taking care of ourself.

And our relationships with friends and family, and personal goals. We become so driven to make money that we forget about our inner happiness and what truly matters. Money is a truly great tool to make life easier and better but it will never buy peace and inner happiness.

Do also believe that prayer without faith is nothing? Some can pray from morning till night but their condition is still the same and they tend to blame it on things and people around, true that there are spiritual forces that holds the hard work of man not to yield anything productive but still we need to do both (work and include God in everything we do) and apply faith to it and the results we get will speak better for us.
Christians these days are always making this mistake of quick to point accusing fingers at anybody who's doing better and they're not, they forget that everybody have his or her own race to run in life, the way it works for Mr A isn't the same way it will work for Mr B, so I'd say we should be mindful of the things around us in other to get that happiness with or without money.

Everyone certainly understands what you say, but to be able to get it, we have to be able to accept whatever we have got because it will be difficult to get happiness if we never feel enough with what we have and we also have to be able to accept what we want. We can't get it because if we keep wanting it and we won't be able to achieve it, of course we have to try to forget that desire and we can look for it in other things to stay happy.

If someone can get their happiness from small things of course they will be very happy in living their life because they don't have to spend a lot of money to get happiness, because as you said it is very true, we have also seen those who have a lot of money without can get happiness because they never feel enough with what they have.

That is true, but it is realistic that every human being has desires and money is something that can fulfill those needs to achieve happiness.
So it doesn't mean that money doesn't have a big influence on a person's happiness, but it comes back to each person's expectations for how big or small the money is to achieve that happiness.

In this world there is enough evidence to prove that money does not guarantee happiness, such as rich people committing suicide so that could be an example.
And all happiness comes back to ourselves, so we have to be able to pursue that or achieve that, what we also need to realize is that everyone's happiness is different.

Money is important in life because we buy all things by money and we cannot stay happy if we have no money in our pocket. But we need money to survive because the basic need of every person is food and without food we cannot live life happy. We need clothes as that is also need of every person, So every person need money but greed is a trait of human and we are greedy person and we always want more and more money and we compare with us with another person who has his own life with different family and different circumstances. So that is major cause of depression and we can not live  happy after doing that. If any person says money has no importance in life ,he is wrong. Money has its own importance and everyone want money from us.

It is true that money has a very important role in meeting our physical and material needs in living life. Because money is also a factor in achieving happiness. However, sometimes long-lasting happiness cannot be obtained just by having a lot of money.

because we can get long-term happiness from family members and closest friends by establishing good relationships. So this is also an important factor in achieving success for everyone, those who can prioritize quality relationships in living life with the people closest to them and not only focus on the financial aspect. However, the example you convey is also true, not being grateful for what you get actually leads to greed and comparison with other people which ultimately leads to depression and suicide.
In essence, this comes back to ourselves in defining happiness, because people's mindsets can differ in how they view the true meaning of happiness.

You’ve put it just right my friend. Having gratitude for the things you’ve got and can be able to provide for yourself. That’s a nice one although, a lot of persons can become so self sufficient and satisfying that, they become relaxed on growth. That shouldn’t be, stagnation isn’t growth and in all you do, so long as you don’t stand stationary at a place, so should your growth in your finances.
Money can’t guarantee full happiness but, your better with money than when your not. If you don’t have money, then how can you afford the things you need to get by daily, it’s a more terrible state. Money is an absolute necessity.

Money is not a source of happiness, indeed having money will make it easier for us to walk in a crowd, but if money makes you happy then your efforts to find happiness will never end, because basically money is just numbers or paper that is exchanged, here in lif what is prioritized is gratitude because with this feeling you will get happiness with the money you earn because basically happiness goes hand in hand with money.
However, it all depends on each individual's perspective, but I say that money only allows us to work without limits to get it, but at that time there is time that we have to share with our small family in the form of our presence to spread happiness with our children.

Money doesn't guarantee happiness well it just like saying money is not everything but in reality, almost everything needs money.

To be honest money is like two sides of a blade it can make you live happily and can make you suffer at the same time. Some people can really happy by owning some money heck lot of rich people seems happy with ton of money you can buy friend a partner even you can rule the world but the dark side of money you already know people suffering just to get single dollar some people killing each other just because of it.

In simple terms Money doesn't guarantee happiness well it could be but with money you can definitely live happy in my opinion

money doesn't guarantee happiness, but money is part of what we need, and that's a real thing, but in happiness we are given health, which we should be grateful for and that is an infinite gift, but many people forget about this health as if they don't need it, when they are sick, they don't understand it. there is money that they save when they are sick, but for treatment for the recovery they want, then they realize that money is not everything.

Yes, we could really be able to say this but we shouldnt really be trying out to deny on ourselves that happiness could really be obtained usually on making use of money specially if its really that related to it
considering that majority of people are really that loving anythings or simply being materialistic which at the same time they do love on travelling in other places on which it would really be that casual
that money would really be your main thing that you would really be needing up for you to obtain such thing on which this one brings happiness into someone. It cant really be just denied on this truth
but there are indeed things which cant be brought up by money on which this isnt something that could be hold like love and respect or even time on which these things are precious.

You should described it rightly.

Those that are saying that money can't buy happiness. Ask them to give their money to anyone so that they can buy their needs, medical stuff, food, desires, etc.

And guess what? they're not going to do it because they're not happy giving their money out to just someone else. They've worked hard for it and they just don't let it go too easy.

But that's the point, the happiness is there but they are denying it because it can provide things that they need or even those that are just wants.

Many people forget the gift of health that God has given us, they don't realize that they have to pay a lot of money to treat a disease, even rich people are willing to pay expensive medical bills abroad just to get a healthy body, in my opinion money is not the main source of happiness and finances are the second point after health. Money cannot create true happiness even though having money can buy everything, but happiness can also be created even without money. The main happiness is when I gather with my family and I am happy that they are given the gift of health.

No matter how any one tries to make it look as if money doesn't bring happiness I doubt it, money is just the most important thing we all want in life because almost all our activities in life involves money so how would you feel when there is no money for you to use and meet up life obligations and all that. About the health aspect you talk about, apart from some chronic illness the rich don't mostly die because of health issues because this people has access to good and quality hospitals where they will be taken good care of and I have never seen someone who is wealthy and joke with their health as most of them have personal and family doctors that takes good care of their health so money is very much important in the life of we humans. Money gives happiness even if the happiness is not full but it gives happiness to some length. Someone who don't have money to meet up daily needs can he be happy, not at all so we all should work towards creating a financial easy ground for our upcoming generations so that they don't labour much as we have laboured.

but I quite agree, that money can't buy everything, even happiness. I know quite a lot of rich people who are frustrated because of family problems or other things. I think, this is not because someone doesn't want to give their money to other people, but we know that money is a very important and necessary factor for the smooth running of a person's life. However, having money doesn't mean everything. There are many factors that determine a person's happiness, money is one of them, but having money alone does not guarantee that someone will feel happy.

Honestly, I don't about others but I love having money because it allows me to create my mode of happiness. There is no dignity in being poor or cashless it lowers one's confidence and diminishes your physical presence. Money might not solve all problems in life but it gives you an edge over them. Life in general becomes easier with some money in the bank.

This is fact or reality on which on the moment or time or condition on which you do have that financial capability then it would really be giving out that kind of confidence on which you could really be able to do
everything on whats up into your mind. You wouldnt really be having that kind of feeling that you are on the ground specially when you are with someone or with other people. Its something that cant really be avoided on sometime on which on the moment that you would really be making out some mingle with other people but your financial capacity isnt really that good then the feeling that you would really be having at that moment isnt something that will really be good but rather you would be lacking up that confidence. Yes, money isnt everything but having that capability will really be having that edge.

It would really be just that a matter of owns perception on things because if they will really be making themselves as money slaves then decisions be made will really be something that out of hand or something that will really be not that right or getting in line with those things on which should or shouldnt really be done by a certain person that they are on their right minds. Deal up with life accordingly or sensibly
without needing to disrupt other peoples lives and minding on your own.

how true is this? pretty much perfectly true.

My kid brother married into a very wealth family  (the owner of cablevislon has a few sons one of them married my brothers sister-in-law) So my brother his wife his sister in law and the son of the only of cable vision would spend a lot of time together .  The owner of cable vision had a few brothers and sisters and a lot of nephews and nieces. One of the nephews got cancer and died in his 20's. So a nephew of a billionaire the son of a millionaire and dead from cancer at 24. 

I rate health first and money third with a true love second.

or A true love first health second and wealth third.

It is very subjective because we're not in the same shoes. But a person who's not rich and just an average guy gives his money to someone in need, that makes that person happy.

Because we don't know what they're going through and that person's money has been a solution to the problem that they're dealing with.

It could be with medicines, food, etc. That's why when you're in a tough situation and still say that money can't buy happiness, it's okay but in real world, that gives happiness to the people that are in need.

Its not the wealth that is the prize really, believe it or not its the process of earning the prize that is the happiness part.   If you got everything you wanted without ever trying you'd be easily unhappy and its not that hard to see why.    It is a genuine problem for anyone born into riches, they have to find a path where they as a human being are challenged in an achievement they value hence can ever be rewarded for their effort.

Money really is a language to communicate value and its very noisy and inaccurate in conveying that worth properly because the money itself is not with alot of value by itself especially. This has to be true nowadays with paper that is actually IOU debt more then an asset, we do kid ourselves alot and in exchange you get things but the money is not the worth its only by communicating value we have gained anything.

Indeed, money cannot guarantee happiness, but it creates good preconditions for it. Money is the equivalent of material well-being, and we live in a rough material world, for a normal life in which we need material wealth. But even with money, success and happiness depend on a person’s behavior in the correct use of this money. But in any case, for complete happiness a person must have a sufficient amount of money.

Whether or not money can buy happiness depends on how you make money as well as how you spend it. If you disregard everything, are willing to give up your loved ones, and family, and do bad things...to make money, then of course you will not find true happiness. But if you can become rich legally and not at the expense of others, you can use that money to buy and maintain your happiness.

Money is not the only factor that determines happiness, but without money you will not be happy. I will not feel happy if I cannot take care of my elderly parents, cannot give my wife and children the best life...money plays a key role when talking about a person's happiness.

The fact is that in this world, when you have a lot of money and your life is full, anything you can buy with money will make you happy, but when we want something and don't have the money to buy it, it will increase our patience to work harder to get it. money and buy what we want.

But when we live in this world we can accept what has been destined for our lives, then we will always be grateful for the achievements we have achieved and not really want anything more. We know that this life is only temporary, so no matter how much money we earn, it will not be taken to our final resting place.

Money does not guarantee happiness and neither does poverty. Less we forget, wealth and happiness are two different things. Though they are likely to be influenced by each other but yet, they are independent.

Wealth is about having money to solve your financial problems while happiness is the state of your mind. You can have a stable mind rest even without wealth but having wealth is likely to give you more rest of mind since you have less problem to bother about. The reason for unrest of mind is due to series of problems and truth be told majority of these problems need finance to be solved.

Actually we all agree that money does not guarantee happiness but in reality it is the opposite in our case. Whenever we seek happiness, money is the first thing we need.

A question that always revolves around me is that if money cannot bring people happiness then why do people work day and night for money and even try to earn money? Of course there is a happiness in money that we cannot fill with anything else. For example, we need money to buy the things we need to fulfill our basic rights. Moneyless people live crippled lives. So If someone wants to say that money can't buy happiness, I can't totally agree with him.

There are some cases where people are rich but do not have complete happiness. They can be all the things that many other people dream of but lack true marital or family love. Since then, some people have relied on those stories and said that money cannot guarantee happiness. But in my opinion that is not true and to be precise, they are happy but not completely.

So I agree with you, I also won't agree with those who say money can't buy happiness. That sounds ridiculous because money is something we always prioritize in this life more than anything.

In the end life cannot be perfect for both rich people and people who are not rich, talking about money is also relative there are those who can be happy because there are only those who need it and there are those who are used to having money either in a lot or a little.

Happy can be made simple, happy can also be made luxurious, and not all about money even though almost everything needs money nowadays, but talking about money here we only need to see how someone can get their own happiness either without money or with money, it goes back to each person.

The guarantee of happiness is how to respond to all the journey of life, not on certain inanimate objects to measure or get happiness.

I don't believe believe gives happiness, but I believe you need money to be happy. Money is just like an ingredient for a food. You need the ingredients for the food, but the ingredients is not the food. I struggle to believe that people can be truly happy without money. You can have peace of mind, but I don't think you'll be happy because everything in this life now requires money. Bills to pay, rent and if you have kids, they'll need to be taken care of. If there's no money, and these things can't be paid for, there can't be happiness.

That being said, I think we put too much importance in money. As much as money is an ingredient for happiness, there are other ingredients that are required for happiness but what we neglect those things and focus only on money.

Or life isnt something that balanced because there are things on which poor people does have while those rich people couldnt be able to obtain. Ex. Complete family, healthy body, happy love life etc.. or simply into those things which cant really be bought by money on which there are really situations like this on where money cant buy up those things despite on having that kind condition or simply in the pinnacle of success in life.
Whereas, poor people or to those average ones who do really have those things but still lacking of financial on which they are really the ones who would really be thriving out to achieve such state because the primary
things that they do in mind is to have their own house, car, travel everywhere and could be able to buy the things that they do want but sadly in reality not everyone would really be able to achieve such state.

There are really things in life on which it cant really be purchased or be bought by money but if i were to choose then i would really be that prefering to be rich because you could really do almost everything.
Yes, you cant have everything but if you are financially capable then you could always have the option or would be able to find ways even if it means on desperate measures in compared
to those individuals who doesnt have much money which movement and actions could really be that limited in most aspect.

Even though you think life in general becomes easier because you have some money in the bank, you don't need to keep more money in the bank because it will also make it difficult for you when you need more money in an instant. I understand what you are saying because basically living poor also cannot buy anything including what we need in life so having money and being rich is the best choice to be happier without creating more problems. And even if there are still problems, the chances of us solving them are also relatively easy if we still have money as a tool that we can rely on for a while.

Yes money is the only thing that is above all in our life. Those of us who say money can't bring happiness should know that when you are poor, you don't have enough money to buy food and even you don't get respect in society because of lack of money then maybe you can feel the importance of money and financial happiness.

Many people say that with faith and a good mind it is possible to live a happy and beautiful life yes it is true but these require money. Because without money it is never possible to live beautifully and happily and comfortably. I have seen many helpless people yearning for money whose only aim in life is to earn money and buy happiness with it. Money may be the underlying happiness of life.

It is not possible to spend a single day without money. Whoever has more money in the society has more power and is respected and respected by all. If you own a lot of money you can exploit the poor it has become a constant social image of our society. But wise men say that money is the root of all vices. It cannot be accepted that a person will be happy only with money. Many people have money but are not happy but many people who don't have money are living happy lives.
If you have money, you have to take security in many things in your life. You think you have a lot of money and if you keep that money in your house, there is a possibility that your money will be stolen, which will cause you extra tension. If you are stressed about money then you will never be happy. Those who do not have money have no tension to fear robbers for now.

As young people or when we have families, we should not have this thought. It will make us falter, lose our efforts in life, and even make us unable to stand up when we fall. Once you are satisfied with what you have, you will stop trying, stop struggling and you will be left behind because our society is constantly developing and does not stand still waiting for us.
I think these thoughts just remind us that no matter how difficult or deadlocked life is, we should be satisfied with it instead of regardless of everything, including doing evil to achieve everything we want.

This is subjective actually, depending on each person's preference in assessing a situation that ultimately has the conclusion of living rich or poor, we can assume this is like that, but poverty is not a goal and is not a real scheme of having family happiness, not a few poor people have suffering in their families, not a few people who do not have money are not happy in their lives.

And you also need to see that there are not a few rich people who have a complete family and can still have various happiness, and things like that, why not set yourself up for happiness like that, we here seem to have a choice of living rich but unhappy with the family and living poor but having a happy family, who assumes that? and we are confused about that choice, why not choose to live with money and have a complete family and be happy, aren't there also many people who have that, so happiness with money and a complete family.

It is true that money is very important for everyone to be able to fulfill their needs and also be able to give someone happiness because it is very difficult for anyone to get happiness without being able to fulfill what they need and also want, most people will certainly care a lot about those who have a lot of money but for those who do not have a lot of money of course it will be very difficult to get the same treatment as those who have a lot of money and also I will agree that having money will certainly be very important to be able to get happiness.

For some people who have positive beliefs and thoughts of course they will have a different perspective on finances because they can easily accept whatever money they have and also most of them choose not to make money a benchmark for getting happiness but they will be able to get happiness not through simple things.

It is indeed undeniable but here we are talking about that money does not guarantee happiness and I think everyone agrees on that.
There are quite a lot of aspects that make us happy and it is not just money and if we use money as a benchmark for happiness then we will never feel enough to find money in our entire life.

Money is only to fulfill the needs in life, be it primary needs or secondary needs, I think that's all, the rest we can do other things, regardless of whether it will use money or not, but there is a happiness that is possible for us to get.

Right, when we earn a lot of money and use that money like crazy or squander it then happiness will not come. But what we call happiness through it is actually nothing but uproars. But if we can spend some part of that money to stand next to a helpless or sick person then we will be able to feel real happiness. Then it can be understood that happiness is related to money management. Again happiness is related to needs. For example I am currently using a motorbike but I feel that I would be happier if I could buy a private car. We will feel happiness when we can buy a car. But again in the future we will get back to our ambition and feel happiness after achieving it. Thus happiness will constantly change with the needs. This is why happiness often seems relative to me. But real happiness lies in the mind which has to be felt with a little stillness and a little pause.

There are some bad aspects of keeping money in the bank like if you keep a huge amount of money in the bank then you can't withdraw the whole amount immediately for your urgent needs because the bank doesn't hold that money. On the other hand, in the current situation, the rate of inflation is much higher than the bank profit, so the value of money keeps decreasing day by day if money is kept in the bank. The more money you have, the more you worry about keeping it safe. so I agree with the op that money can never buy happiness. but you cannot be happy without money.  We need money but in normal amounts

Not true, some people live without money purely on their accumulated wealth via family.   This is a well known form of wealth in developing countries with no stable currency.  They raise a large family and rely on them in old age to continue in good health even in old age when unable to work.   There is no pension or insurance in these countries and to be wealthy is to have a strong usually large family, quite an alien concept to modern westernized societies perhaps.

Money ever describes other forms of wealth and arguably its less reliable then all the prior forms of asset or familial wealth as has been true for generations in some countries.

Not necessarily because they inherited it or did illegal things to obtain it, but I guess that it can be a little bit frustrating also having earned so much money so you don't need to work for a living for some of them, and not knowing what to do with one's life to get motivated. I guess that buying things and paying for experiences help, but doesn't last forever.

Those who are poor or simply in debt don't have so much time to bore or think about that sense of dissatisfaction you mentioned, because the spend long time working or thinking about their job.

Of course, not all rich people have time to get bored: many run businesses or manage investments, for example. So money can help, but it doesn't guarantee by itself living a fulfilling life.

Saving a large amount of money in a bank is certainly not the right choice and also profitable for us and in this case it will be very detrimental when inflation occurs the amount of money saved in the bank will certainly remain the same but the value of the money has been very different from the situation before inflation not to mention as you have mentioned when you need a large amount of money then it will be very unlikely for the bank to give the money that we have saved and there will also be many requirements that they give when you want to withdraw it.

Everyone will certainly agree that not all happiness can be obtained with money, but we also realize that without money it will certainly be difficult to obtain happiness, so no matter how much money we have, we must be able to accept it so that we can have happiness in anything.

Charitable works would really be just that a choice because not all individuals that have money will really be having that kind of consideration on doing such act. They would really be that mainly focusing into theirselves
when it comes to their needs and wants on which its not really that shocking. Money doesnt guaranteed happiness but this is really something the main thing thatyou would really be needing to acquire those things on which we know that most people do really love these things and they would really be happy when it comes to material things on which its really that very common on having this kind of condition.
Money cant really be able to buy it all but if you are someone who doesnt have money then there's no way that you would be able to enjoy life on which we know that this is something that everybody wants to have.

This is why we are really are thriving to have that different source of income or really finding up ways to make more money because we do really want to achieve that financial freedom on what
everyone do really wishes for but we do know that this isnt something that would really be simply to obtain and this is why it would really be that understandable that people
will really be doing their best to earn or obtain more income to achieve such success.

Money ain't nothin' but a tool. It fuels your desires, sure, keeps you fed and sheltered. But it's the relentless chase that's the problem. We think more zeros in the bank account equals happiness? Bullshit. Happiness is love, connection, purpose. Money buys comfort, not compassion We're all a little selfish, that's human nature. But this self-centered pursuit of wealth blinds us to what matter to us. Ever seen a rich guy who's miserable as hell? That's 'cause money can't buy peace of mind. The true winners, they're the ones who share their wealth, who lift others up

Get this: The pursuit of wealth only matters when it helps someone else. Compassion ain't about hoarding, it's about giving. And when you grasp that, your whole damn perspective on success changes. You start to see the world, and yourself, differently

Happiness depends entirely on being content with what you have.  You have a lot of money if you think you are happy then you are happy. Even if you have property you are not happy in mind then you are not happy. Besides having property, a person should have good health, his relatives, his partner, everything.  Otherwise a person cannot be truly happy.  You are very happy, you have a lot of money, but if your children are not human, then you cannot get happiness.  Or if you own illegal money you will suffer from tension all the time and you will not be truly happy.  Better than those who work day labor all day and eat two handfuls at night and sleep deeply. But it is also true that life is impossible without money.  Many times poor people cannot meet their basic needs.  They have to suffer from diseases. Due to lack of money for treatment, they suffer from diseases for a long time.  So I will say that having money is very important, but not such money that there will be no respect for family members, no love. People will forget their useful knowledge for money.  No one wants that kind of money.

Majority would really be like this on which same as you said that happiness is considered into those many zeroes that they do have in bank stored on which this is the main priority of the many. Yes, it would really be understandable and its true that we cant really do things that we want if we dont have that much money but just like been said that love,respect,good health are the things that cant be bought by money no matter how rich you would be and this is something that people should really be thankful for because there are really those wealthy person who do have all the money that they do have but they cant have everything in terms into the things that cant really be obtained no matter how rich you are. This is why lets not really that put up into our minds that money is everything and just like on what you have said that it is really just that a tool.

Earning for more is just a normal approach because we do want to have a comfortable life but make it sure that you wont really be making money as some sort of your God on which you've been
that getting desperate and even doing such unethical doings just to obtain them on which this is really that a very wrong mindset to have. You would really be able to realize the importance
of it but of course everything should really be done in moderation. There would be no issues on wanting more but everything should really be kept on balance.
