I always thought it'd be fun to be super wealthy so I could leave huge tips for waitresses struggling to feed their families or just to stop at someone's doorstep and hand them a ton of cash just to make their life easier. However, I'd also like to have some organization to it and have my own foundation. My full-time job would be to run the foundation. This way, I'm not just sitting around with my cash getting bored. I'd actually be doing something positive and be working as well. I don't think money has the ability to make you happy, but it has the ability to make certain areas of your life less stressful if you manage your money correctly. And, while I'm on the subject, I have to point out here that money is not the root of all evil, as so many people say. If people would actually read the Bible verse, they would find that it says "For THE LOVE of money is the root of all evil..." There is a BIG difference there.

Money does not have the ability to make you happy. It has the ability to make you happier.
If you are a miserable persion with no money, you're not going to magically become a happy person if someone gives you a million dollars. you'll probably be somewhat less miserable, but a miserable rich person instead of poor.
It's often been said and it's true that the bes things in life are free. among those being happy, healthy relationships with family and friends and the ability to help others. if you don't have those now, you're not going to be able to buy them if you suddenly become rich.
but if you do have them, you'll be able to enjoy life even more. you'll be able to do more things with and for your friends and family and donate more to charities and live an all-around happier more full life.
Think of it like a hamburger. The hamburger is the main ingredient, the meat. It represents your relationships with family & friends, health, happiness, etc. Money is like the condiments that make the hamburger better whether you like yours with cheese, lettuce, pickles, tomatos, onions, mustard, ketchup or whatever condiments you prefer.
But if your life sucks (in other words you've no meat and therefore no hamburger) all you end up with is a bun with condiments and no meat and that doesn't sound very appealing does it? http://www.top10moneysecrets.com

A trillion bucks?
I'd probably retire to a private island in the Gulf somewhere.
Not being a people person, I really don't care to see many of you, or share any of the money.
I help those that I can trust to help me, which is very few of you (you being the general public).
Then I'd hire the Girls Gone Wild crew to shoot a film on my island. They provide the cameras and girls, I'll supply the alcohol.
A trillion bucks, good chance I can get some of em to stay, LOL.

Sweet! If only it were true. I wish I had that much 'cause I have little money to spend. I just wonder what all us users would do with all that money. Money makes the economic world go round. Supply and demand makes the stock market go up, down, around in circles, and back again! An ancient collision 5 gigayears with a super sized asteroid caused Earth to spin and the moon to form and that's what really made the world go round.

Well, yes and no. I would first payoff my bills, make sure my house is paid for then, I would buy a small home for my sister. So she could finally settle down after 38 years. I would get my nephew into a much deserved college, give some money to my niece to help her. I would save money for my kids to go to college in 10 years. Basically, I would make sure my family is well taken care of first. Then I would move onto my best friend and her family, and so on and so on. Once my family and friends are secure then I would give to American kids who are orphans, starving, in need. Then I would help anyone else who is also struggling.

Did you know that Bill Gates has enough money to give every person in the entire world $7? But anyway, yes I would be happy if you gave me money but I would feel weird accepting it because I don't know you.

I don't think that money makes a person truly happy. It can make you less stressed out but not truly happy.
