    Low. Buying always leaves me feeling disappointed and empty. I feel happiest when I am working towards goals and accomplishing something that is worthwhile.

    It is true that money cannot buy happiness. But then neither can being poor make you happy. Happiness is having more than enough for what you need plus some extras to be comfortable. As an index if you have enough for the things that make life much more pleasant then you're in a good place.

    Money buys what makes you happy. Thus, money buys happiness. It's not about being able to buy more of what I want. It's about being able to pay all of my bills, and save for the future. Knowing I'm ok if there's a disaster, or that lights won't go out because I can't pay the bill, that makes me comfortable. And a comfortable SBD is a happy SBD.

    Money doesn't make you happy but it would allow me to do more things that would make me happy, like take a vacation, help others financially, donate to animal charities, etc. I am happier when I can buy all my necessities and not be completely broke...this rarely happens but having a few dollars in the bank does lessen the stress of always struggling check to check.

    Yes. Whoever said money does not buy you love has not been in El Paso, Texas on Dyer street on military payday

    Being disabled and living on Social Security Disability, I can't afford to buy what I need, much less what I want. Whoever said "life sucks and then you die" was certainly right....

    I just feel more happy when I have more money. I don't have to buy anything to feel that way.
