From what I read--someone with an excessive amounts of money are no happier than the ones who have just enough, of course not having enough will bring a lot of stress. But there are a million factors that enter into ones happiness, some we can control--others we can not. Being involved with your church, synagogue, etc. can bring about a certain amount of contentment and happiness. Pets bring happiness too.

No, it is not money which brings happiness it is attitude behind money which brings happiness. Money could not be a scale for the measurement of happiness.

No, but sometimes it helps.
In other words, Money brings content, satisfaction, need, and those needs, satisfaction may lead to happiness because worries are free. However, too much satisfaction, needs will become want, desire and caused unhappiness as well.
So, you have to know how to balance your life with money in your hand. Very often, enough is better than more.

Yes I do.
There has been research showing that there is a relationship between a big paycheck and overall happiness. However individuals that have won large lottery payouts reported only a slight increase in their overall satisfaction levels.
Who knows maybe you have to earn it or maybe happy people tend to be more financially successful.
Personally I have found my life got better as my paycheck increased.

Yes, absolutely. I have been poor and I have been well off. Let me tell you, it is a lot nicer and I am a lot happier with money. Those who say it does not buy happiness, 1. Never had any, 2. Just don't know where to shop. So they really don't know.

for me i think money brings happiness imagine not having to work any more that would bring me happiness,buying whatever i needed wanted and desired would also bring me happiness
who cares if you had friends that you thought wouldnt like you if you had money or not,its not as if you buy them things just for them to keep your friendship...not having to worry about the next bill to pay pure bliss in my mind

NO!!! Just because you have money that doesn't mean your happy. You can be the richest person in the world and be unhappy. I mean think if you were rich wouldn't you be wondering if someone was really your friend or just their for the money.

NO! Even you have a lot of money, what about your health? If your health is bad, you won't be happy too! Even if you die, you won't get to bring your money with you!
