The pursuit of money has negative psychological consequences

[Okurkabinladin]

Money makes you happy. 110%.

The problem is 99% of people dont have enough money so they dont know.

For how much money would you give a grossly obese, old, smelly man a blowjob? What is your price? Serious question. "Happiness" is worth a little work, dont you agree?

Uhm. Prostitution is not the only way to earn money you know. Not sure if where you live thats the only way to make money but in industry nations if you have the right skills you can easily earn upwards of 10.000+ € per month.
And that is enough to have financial security - which makes one very very very happy.

You are trying to evade the question, my friend   yes, indeed material possesions makes life more comfortable to live. I could write books about this topic.

But you have said something different. Enough money = happiness. Less than "enough" = unhappiness.

There are people in the world, who unlike you dont have opportunities to make 10 000 euros per month. What would you advise them to be happy, if you find blowjobs below your high standarts? Do you feel happy right, now?

You see where I am going with this.

You cannot buy state of mind. Material and spiritual are two absolutely different things.

ok first things first:

no, i wouldnt suck a dick for any amount of money because i earn good money by other means.

second, where did i say you need x amount of money to be happy?
you quoted me and interpreted something into it - read it again.

it is about financial security. do you need an explanation of financial security?
(in my case i live in germany - so with an monthly income of 10.000+ € you wont have trouble with living a comfortable and happy life)

edit:

about your last sentence. a good state of mind neither feeds you or your family. nor does it buy you clothes, a car or a house.

i agree these two concepts are different but they of course are still connected with each other.

i.e. happy mind + starving = not funny; unhappy mind + full belly = atleast you dont die; happy mind + full belly = n1

the human being cannot be split, his mind and his body will (for now) always form a symbiotic relationship.

Although people living in consumer-based cultures such as the U.S. often believe that they will be happier if they acquire more money, the findings of a newly published paper by a University at Buffalo research team suggest that there may be downsides to this pursuit. The pursuit of money in and of itself is not bad, but there are risks to consider when it is fueled by a desire to boost self-esteem. When people tie their self-worth to the pursuit of financial success, they are more vulnerable to negative psychological consequences, according to Lora Park, an associate professor of psychology at UB and the study's lead author.

Do you agree?

I dont really agree when it stated that people will be happier if they got a lot of money, money has become somebody measurement to measure happiness but that is not entirely true, there a lot of thing in this world that cant be bought using money, we need money in this world but we need to balance our life, too money minded will make you not enjoying your life and can caused you your health

Money is a good servant but a bad master said one book. We are all in pursuit of money, after all, we can really live today without it. Even if you are someone living in a cabin in some secluded area, you can't make everything and have to buy them. I guess only people who lose sight of why they were trying to make money in the first place would really have a problem.

Prostitution is generally a very relative concept. Every woman wants to have a rich husband and live in abundance. What is this not prostitution? Everyone needs money. I believe that any earnings is acceptable if does not harm others. Anyone who earns € 10,000 in the industry are poisoning nature and does more harm than a prostitute, but respect him.

When a man provides a family, this is not considered prostitution. A wife can feed him in return, take care of the house and children.

Prostitution is the same. Just you covertly, told about the same. There is a trade, and there is a natural exchange. If in a poor country prostitutes will take the service of food, what would you call it prostitution or a civil marriage?

Civil marriage for me is the same hidden prostitution. A normal family in which a man is engaged in providing and protecting the natural function of the male is different from the consumer attitude.

Even the official family is the same. A man can get sex from a prostitute and pay her money for it, and she already buys all that she needs. In marriage, the wife tells you what to buy you bring and you get sex. What's the difference?

 I guess the difference would be that both man and "wife" are working in your prostitution scenario whereas in your official version of family the woman isn't working.  Also, prostitutes are generally not interested in having children.

Why do you think so? Children is the best way for a woman to get rich man the money for the maintenance. Millions of examples. Every rich and famous man periodically faced with the blackmail of bastard children.

Yes everything needs a balance.

Do you agree?

I agree. People are often corrupted. Having money is everything , having a better life, but with a developed society, with a lot of money people will easily be deformed, reliant or even become a bad person.

Thank goodness we're not required to marry these hoes anymore. They still leave with money after a divorce though. I guess just don't marry...

Unfortunately people get used to the half and sooner or later will be the question of how to legalize their relationship. In addition, there is the concept of civil marriage. It can even without the wedding to seize his money.
