You choose. I know it's possible to be poor and miserable or rich and happy, but if you had to choose which would it be?

I'll put a stal but surely it doesn't need one.

You may choose only one

there is no point to living your life if your not happy about. life is pretty much about being happy or the pursuit of happiness. without it in life there is nothing to really strive for and no point to go on

I chose "poor and happy"

Although I would find it difficult to be happy if I were dirt poor.

I know an awful lot of people that think it's all about money.

Of course, this poll might get different results if it were posted somewhere with a more conservative group of people.

I'm already Poor and REALLY MOTHERFUCKIN' HAPPY. If I won the lottery, I would probably O.D. on happiness.

If I won the lottery, there would definatley be a few people from the Shroomery I would "take under my flithy rich wing" and shower them with my money, because I think they deserve it.

I want to spread happiness, that's all.

I'm already poor and happy, and I think that I would still be happy if I had $$$$$, but I would never choose to be miserable.

try replacing "conservative" with "greedy", it makes you look less ignorant and biased. there are just as many greedy liberal people as there are conservatives.

Makes me look less biased and ignorant? And what exactly are you basing your oh so wise opinion of me on? I believe this is the first time we have posted on the same thread.

BTW most intelligent people know to capitalize the first letter of a sentence.

poor and happy hands down. happiness is everything. if you have a lot of money and arent happy it defeats the purpose of having money in the first place.

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity. ~ Albert Einstein

i chose rich and miserable.

at least if i was rich i'd probably be doing something to help other people and the world... i think the only misery would be if i had alot of money and nothing i tried to do with it worked out.
