the saying "money can'y buy happiness" is not true, in my opinion. money can make a lot of people happy. anyone agree/disagree?
DavidxN
yep i agree on that, money can get u any feeling in the world...cept the feeling of not having money i guess

I don't care to much for money. Money can't buy me love

Agree and Disagree, if you have everything you want, someday there is one thing missing. Love ? and true happiness coming from people that you love.
bhrama
why is this on the entertainment forum?? ...anyways, i think people can be happy with money, but it depends on the situation. if ur like this rich businessperson with lots and lots of money, but ur like mean and grouchy, then u'll probly never find happiness. But if u just won the lottery then u'll be very very happy!

LatinaLady
for me it can make me happy. if i want some candy ill use the money and there i have it
if i want a phone ill use it and i have it. the only thing you cant get with money is friends and love.

Money can make people happy alright. But money (in my opinion) will make some people evil, like thiefs, burglars, etc. _dry.gif
Caitlin
hmm money would make me happy.. temporarily at least.. but money definately cant buy me love.
sheddingtears
Yeah I guess it can buy you everything, except for what's really genuine, like true love.
CEP
Meh.
Money would surely make me happy.
_dry.gif Hell, you really don't need love to be happy.
Just need things that'll make you happy to be happy.
Get it?

Agreed. Not all people are materialistic. I would rather be a happy poor person than a depressed rich being.

My bumper sticker says: "Money may not buy happiness, but it can buy a pretty sweet car."

Money may not buy happiness, but with money, someone can buy a new heart (literally), make it possible for blood transfusions, find cures to diseases... etc.

I guess it can't buy happiness, but it certaintly can make a difference in everyone's life.
pikimoo
Well, it can buy you a makeover.. mental help.. diamonds and rings and such.. cars.. food.. a romantic cruise..

It actually kinda can buy love in some twisted way. huh.gif

But yeh.. it really depends on the person.

the more money you have, the more temporary happiness you can enjoy.

money can most definetly buy happiness.
ComradeRed
Money can buy drugs, and drugs can alter your neurological chemical signals, thus generating what is commonly referred to as happiness.

money can definatly make you happi, but not forever i think
ComradeRed
Well duh, cause eventually you die.
bibliomania
Money can buy happiness, but I don't think it's going to last for a long time... at least for me...

I mean, I'll have everything I want (if I had a lot of money) but there would be things that can't be substituted by money, like love.
perfectionist
But those things you guys are mentioning... they're still all temporary. mellow.gif

But if you love money, then in a way, you still have love...

I don't think there can be a definite "yes" or "no" answer to this thread..

Because it all depends on how you define "happiness"
LiNHy POO
well at a certain point it can make ya happy... but then after awhile, it doesnt really matter...
Foolish Heart
Well if you have money, you can buy things you like and be happy.

But love from someone special is what money can't buy.

sammi rules you
I think money could make me happy. But other things can make me happy too. I'm easily happy.. biggrin.gif

agreed. and yea money can make a diff since its the currency of the world at the moment. someone in an earlier post said u dont need love to be happy. how can u NOT have love in ure life? life is meaningless without love. sure money can satisfy ure materialistic needs but that aint everything. yea money can keep me alive but it sure as hell cant buy me some love.
[i]LLMATiC
i dont think money can buy u happiness.. if u by happiness u mean friends, family `nd all that money cant buy friends `nd family.. well it can buy friends but wen the money is gone then they are too so yea..
melface
If I had money... I'd be happy... and even if I weren't I'd just use my money to get plastic surgery (which I don't need, I'm just saying...) and turn into a beautiful woman who the men cannot stop thinking about and then they'll fall in love with me... and then I'll be happy... Since my personality is already perfect :]

Whatever.

I'm prepared to support my husband financially in the name of love. If I love him, I wouldn't care about his money, I'd only care about his happiness and my own.

Money is NOT the first thing I go for. Most guys my age are LOSERS who still depend on their parents but act all independent. I knew a guy who had a pretty nice ride to hit on girls with, but what they didn't know that HIS PARENTS bought for him.

DISAGREE

First of all, what about all the people that can make you happy?
elmogurly
Hm..it's how you use your money. I'd buy a million small bouncy balls and drop them down all at once and watch that. That would make me happy. happy.gif
