NOBODY has a guarantee of happiness, under ANY circumstance.
The best we can hope for is to be content in whatever circumstance we may find ourselves.
Even if you are the most spiritually fulfilled, most loving, and financially secure person, life comes with no guarantee of happiness. It is good to be thankful for each blessing and to savor each tiny moment of happiness, because these things are gifts to us.

LOVE. To give love and to receive love. Money is great, but if I had to choose between money and love I would definitely choose love.. Money can't touch your soul and make you feel whole, love can.... There are no guarantees in life, one must always try to just be happy.

There is no guarantee for happiness. Some people simply don't want to be happy.

Happiness is a choice. Studies show that many poor people have a daily life filled with happiness and wealthy people often have a daily life filled with strife. When ever you get mad, you say "so and so made me mad." In fact you made the choice to get mad, you could have as easily chosen to ignore, laugh, cry, or be happy.

What are you talking about. Money makes you happy. You can love and give more. Not worry about debt and have time to live and experience life without the risk of bankruptcy.

Testifying of God's "eternal purposes," a prophet taught, "Men are, that they might have joy." Many people try to find happiness and fulfillment in activities that are contrary to the Lord's commandments. Ignoring God's plan for them, they reject the only source of real happiness. They give in to the devil, who "seeketh that all men might be miserable like unto himself." Eventually they learn the truth: "Wickedness never was happiness."
Others seek only to have fun in life. With this as their main goal, they allow temporary pleasure to distract them from lasting happiness. They rob themselves of the enduring joys of spiritual growth, service, and hard work.
As we seek to be happy, we should remember that the only way to real happiness is to live the gospel. We will find peaceful, eternal happiness as we strive to keep the commandments, pray for strength, repent of our sins, participate in wholesome activities, and give meaningful service.

ask anyone on the street or behind in bills how it's not a garuanteer of happiness! ask any women who marries a guy whos rich or at least financially secure. ask any pro athelete, call girl or poker player. ask any stock broker and portfolio manager. at the very least money is a gauranteer of security.

It is seeking spiritual guidance. Getting to know God and knowing that you are pleasing him, that is true happiness. Also, having a nice relationship not only with the ones you love but with your enemies.
