why do poor people that don't have anything are happy?and rich people that have every thing are unhappy?

Answer 1

The poor don't know what they are missing and the rich run out of things to do they get bored, lonely and unhappy.


Myself....give me money and I will show you how freakin happy I can be!

Answer 2

Not all poor people are happy. Not all rich people are unhappy. But if so in either case, it sometimes takes more than riches to make a person happy or unhappy.

Answer 3

poor people appreciate the little things in life and happiness comes from with in them where as rich people worry about how to get richer and they don't have time to enjoy happiness unless it begins and ends with a dollar sign they don't see all the happiness they are letting pass by and rich people are the real losers not the poor

Answer 4

I lived on both ends of the spectrum. I can say this. Just because someone seems happy with their life it doesn't really mean that they are. Rich and poor...it doesn't matter what your financial background is. Some people are happy with their lives and some are not. It all depends on who the person is. Not what they are.

Lifestyles Of The Rich & Famous by Good Charlotte

"Always see it on t.v.or read it in the magazines

Celebrities,they want sympathy

All they do is piss and moan inside the rolling stone

Talking about how hard life can be



I'd like to see them spend the week livin' life out on the street

I don't think they would survive

If they could spend a day or two walking in someone else's shoes

I think they'd stumble and they'd fall

They would fall (fall)



Lifestyles of the rich and the famous

They're always complaining, always complaining

If money is such a problem

Well, they got mansions

Think we should rob them



Did you know when you were famous

You could kill your wife and there's no such thing as

25 to life as long as you've got the cash to pay for cochran

And did you know if you were caught and you were smoking crack

Mcdonald's wouldn't even want to take you back

You could always just run for mayor of D.C.

by the way, did you ever hear the saying: "people who say that money can't buy happiness just don't know where to shop!"

Answer 6

Are you sure that poor people are happy and rich people are unhappy?

Answer 7

cause poor people don't have a lot of money and rich people should at least give the poor a 100

Answer 8

B/c being poor, we have to find other ways to make us happy: family, love, life... etc. Rich people weren't taught those lessons so they rely on money for happiness. For some it works, for others, its not sufficient enough to fufill that hole.

Answer 9

Because people without money learn to appreciate the intrinsic value of things. People with money only appreciate things with monetary value. I'm still trying to figure out what it is about gold and diamonds that makes them worth so much.

Answer 10

Probably because of the old adage "money can't buy happiness." You need peace of mind, to feel purposeful in life, and as little stress as possible. None of these can be purchased.
