I am 64 and retired. My vision of being rich is to spend at least a dollar a week less than you earn. That sounds strange, but most people with money problems get in trouble because they fall behind a few dollars a week, and over the years, it really adds up.
Could I use more money if I had it? Sure. However, part of maturity is learning to live within your income. We are building a house in the mountains of Mexico, the Third World part. Neighbors use burros for farm work. Others have houses made of sticks with palm leaves for roof. (My wife was born in a house like that.)
So, we ARE the Jones. Living above your neighbors makes for contentment.
When we have money, we advance on the house building. When we run out, our builder gets other work. So, all we need to do is wait a few months, and we have plenty of money.
What would I do with a lot of money? Probably work on the house until it's done, and buy a new Toyota Sienna with GPS. And, of course, a half dozen computers...
But, we have more than enough money to do all we want. We just wait a bit and there is more, since our cost of living there is a fraction of our income in the US.

I have more than enough. In January I left my job, sold everything I owned (which wasn't a lot) and moved to Costa Rica. By American standards I'm in a total state of poverty but yet I live like a king on the beach (and I do it without leeching off of other people). It's not an easy road to travel but I'm happy. I used to make quite a bit of money and the more I had the more I needed. I'm back in the US for a few months visiting family & friends but I can't wait to get back home - all the materialism here really makes my stomach churn. I often wish I had more money so I could financially help my 3rd world friends who have even less than I do but apart from that, the only thing I need is the shirt on my back.

I need money to fund my personal needs and to help out with expenses at home. I want to get to the point where my mom won't need to work anymore as i would support her. I also want to have a lot of money so i can help charities, organizations, etc. so to the question if i think i have enough money? not yet, i won't have enough money until i am able to give. :-)

God has provided us with just the right amount for a place to live, food to eat , cloths on our back and enough to afford medicine if we become sick , I am very thank full for everything we have from the Internet right down to every last aspirin .
I think if your handing out free money though we would probably take that too ..be we had more or less I would still be thankfull .

THere is a point when you have enough, but may want more. Some people just keep building thier empire.
Remember that money in the bank is being invested on other oppotunities for other people which is a good thing.

I make good money and so does my husband. We have a house and cars and no plastic. Could I use more money.. yes but only because since I don't have children I try to help my elderly parents as much as I can.. the more I have extra the more I could help them with the things they need. I hate it when I see them trying to budget and cut out what they need for groceries so they can afford their medicines.

I think everyone always wants more money. Me personally I am happy with what I have because there are ALWAYS people who have more and less then you, so I just try to be thankful for what I have
