Im so sick of hearing money cant buy you happiness
    #25537875 -

What kind of bullshit mindfuck is this, are these people just stupid and dont know how to spend it or are they tainted with a lifestyle of simple luxury. Seriously yo, drop me some cash if you aint gonna make good with it.

PM me if you want to make it rain on my parade

Do you take bitcoin?

I'm not offering, just asking.

IMO, purpose leads to happiness.

If your purpose is to make more money so you can buy nice things, then row row, row your boat.

Thing about money is, you have to be making it to be able to spend large amounts. If you're not making an income, money goes real quick.

i think you are really underestimating what constitutes fulfillment in life, your relationships with the people and animals you love really are all that matter beyond being extremely destitute. the mind is amazing at adjusting, boredom and insatiability lurk perpetually within the ego's desires what once was a special treat falls down an all too familiar gluttonous path and becomes mundane.

im not saying money doesn't help relieve stress and provides endless opportunities for adventure and growth but it isn't going to make you happy, you will still be you if you have wealth or not as will all your personal struggles.

Yeah its total horseshit. Money not only can buy happiness but a good bit of it is often necessary for happiness.

If you're a shallow materialist then of course it will get you as close to happiness as you'll ever achieve unless you as the above poster said change your purpose. I lived homeless at a river for 9 months with my significant other. Had no money whatsoever and that was the happiest I've ever been no friggin lie.

Money cant exactly buy u happiness but it sure does help!

I think the point is u dont have to rich to be happy. On the other side, it can be depressing to be poor.

Grew up around plenty of it. It definitely helps you with your goals. But you can really be miserable just about anywhere. Success/happiness is not quantifiable. It's a state of mind

Of course money can buy happiness temporarily.
Cool things are fun to buy and own.
Is life better with a nice house and car?
It can be, but not for everyone.

True happiness and self love in life, nah homie, that can't be bought.
And money doesn't necessarily make it easier to get there either.

The people who tell you money doesnt make you happy are complete idiots.

Money will enable you to not struggle all the fucking time. All your bills will be paid and if shit goes wrong like your car breaks down,  you'll have the money to fix  it.

It wont bring you true deep down happiness, but it will free up your mind and life so you can focus on the important things in life that will bring you true happiness.

If you're always struggling and worrying about money, living paycheck to paycheck, it will be shit for you and much harder to be happy

I know this pretty damn rich guy who made it himself. He owns all the expensive toys that he wished he had when he was a kid, like motorpowered vehicles and shit but he doesn't seem enthused by them, or much of anything at all these days. Cool guy though

Money can help a person work on every level of the Self-Actualization pyramid: https://positivepsychologyprogram.com/self-actualization/

Money opens optiona that werent there before. Of course it wont find u true love or deep self-discovery, but having money can help u achieve those things by having the option to travel or take self-improvement classes, retreats, and having a yacht doesnt hurt either :lol:

In an ideal world, we'd all have access to an infinite amount of tokens and joyful experiences.

Maybe one day in some kind of simulation. :laugh:

If you want to scale the money pyramid, create something that the people essentially 'need' to be 'happy'.

Sell or invent outlets of happiness, hope, pleasure and/or entertainment.

Nearly everything around us today is entertainment. Even our food, and water. :yesnod:

You don't 'need' a lot of shit. My 2cents.

In theory the less 'creative' you are in entertaining yourself, the more you'll be a slave to 'consuming' and paying for other's creativity to ensure that you are sufficiently 'entertained' to avoid - the void, that is always present. :eek:

So we're basically playing a giant game to see who can be the most entertaining or entertained.

We're kids playing in a sandbox, waiting to die.

:excuseme:

I think what people mean is that money provides diminishing returns. Once your basic necessities are met (and a bit more I'd think), more money doesn't necessarily make you happier. I think its fairly true. Some of the best times of my life were in college when relatively speaking, I had little money.

...the whole experience is (and is as) a profound piece of knowledge.  It is an indellible experience; it is forever known.  I have known myself in a way I doubt I would have ever occurred except as it did.

Smith, P.  Bull. Menninger Clinic (1959) 23:20-27; p. 27.

...most subjects find the experience valuable, some find it frightening, and many say that is it uniquely lovely.

True happiness is smiling and not caring when your breaks down.

The ease of life which current day wealth provides can easily blind someone to true happiness, as they never have to come to terms with struggling. Having nothing and being fine with it is preparation for happiness in all situations. There's a happy medium in there for everyone.
