Answer 1

its as simple as the answer: "no." if money was everything, we woulnd't be here because the world would be dominated by money and power. It is a very high needed thing on our nations list, but that doesnt mean its everything. Money can do damage, but it also benefits the world. It was very confusing thing.

Answer 2

Sure helps pay the bills.
If I was stinking rich, I could pay for love. You pay for it in some fashion or other.
Hard to live in the U.S. without money.
rents are only cheap in the bad parts of the country. Anyplace thats decent is usually expensive because most people would rather live there than in the bad places.
Government wants their share.
When you get married to the one you love, you gotta hand the man some money for the wedding certificate. Money,money,money.
Without money, or the ability to make a salary, what does the groom have to offer their bride.
Poverty?
Cardboard box?
I think you see my point.
Love away - and then get some money to by some grub and a place to stay. Free love like the hippies - everyone bring something to eat like pot luck dinner.

Answer 3

Money is not everything, being loved to me is far more important...... how many rich people are happy, they have far more problems then normal people do....I'm not rich, but I'm rich in happiness, I have everything that I want, a great spouse, (over twenty five years !!!!) My guitars, my computer, books, my chess games, great healthily kids, what more could I ask for ???????? Happiness to me is contentment and a great companion !!!!!!!! Material things don't mean everything because most people who have everything are not happy....but what's sad is that they don't realize this until it's too late !!!!!! How many people have that BMW, big house, the best of everything and are still looking for that one thing that will make them happy....thank God that early in life I found the one person who would make me happy, I was just about fourteen and I knew then and I know now that I found my love for life....people will often say to me do you know how ****** talks about you, I wish that my better half would talk about me like that, so I consider myself very rich....the material things don't mean anything.....I'd much rather have the love of my life than all the money in the world !!!!!!!!!!!

It depends on what you want in life. The more you want then the more money you will need. Right now I am in Thailand where the basic need is food and many farmers have enough growing on their land that they don't need to buy any so they they invest in tools to farm another time. If I had to pick I would pick a lover with a lot of money. But since I am the money maker I invest my money for pleasure and have picked a lover that is everything to me.

Answer 5

Money is not every thing. The world around you is ruled by money and thus money holds power but every thing does not revolve around money. Money does not buy happiness, just crap. I’ll give you an example to go by: The man who lives behind my house, is a miserable man. He has a really nice car, with a nice house and a trophy wife. He is a very wealthy man, but any time I’ve spoken to him he’s had nothing positive to say. I’ve never seen him smile. I, on the other am not wealthy at all. Constantly I am struggling to make rent and put gas in my car. But you will never see me with out a smile, because I’m satisfied with my life. I love the world around me, and I love the wonderful people who visit me at my difficult job. Money has never brought me any thing but dissatisfaction and will never be able to make me as happy as my family does. I will choose love over any odds, and will always come out on top.

Answer 6

Money can buy you happiness.
Wouldn't you be happy if you realized you no longer had to worry about how much you charge on a credit card?
I know I would just love to buy as many cars as I'd like and not have to worry about paying the bill every month...

But, love is more important than money. I'd give all my money to have love :].

Answer 7

It sure couldn't hurt................. some people will never be happy with anything, so therefore it will never buy them love or happiness, they do not know the meaning .... however... if you do know what love is and you do know what happiness is, then the money is one more added treasure.
I think that one has to be spiritual about oneself, a nd of you are I'd pick the money and spend it wisely, love will come to you as you are spiritual in due time anyways.

Answer 8

So here is the thing. I dont believe that you can buy happiness with money but I believe that money makes people happy. Money also makes people greedy, powerful, intimidating, and careless among other things but I think that if you have the right amount of money to keep yourself stable and happy than you can be happy because of having the money. Did you get all that?

Answer 9

No, not when you're in the middle of the Sahara desert. Of course money IS everything, everything needs money. And yes, money CAN buy happiness, CAN set the condition for love to last. Woe betide the man who just mouths "i love you" but cannot provide his beloved with security and the comforts of life. For this you need money. Talk is cheap!!

Answer 10

Although in our society we need money to live. It really can't buy you love, or happiness or anything that is truly important emotionally. It can only buy material things, and that is not the same as love. One's health is everything. If one doesn't have that than no amount of money can fix it.
