Money doesn’t directly buy happiness, but it is the gateway to happiness. Money provides comfort, stability, and reduces stress, all of which leads to happiness. You won’t have to worry about sacrificing a few meals to keep the lights on or even sacrificing the lights just to keep a roof over your head. Feelings hungry? If you have money you can feed yourself, if you don’t then you’re gonna have to suffer or figure it out. You’re sick and need antibiotics, but your bank account says you can’t afford a doctor’s visit, welp looks like you’re at the mercy of your immune system and hope your body can fight it off naturally.
i partialy disagree with you, cause even though what you said its right, you came from a point who takes this as lightly as riches who says money doesnt buy happines for the poor thinks they are happier being poor now i will express how i see it, money bbrings happines? if you are struggling just to survive? hell yeah , it does buy happiness...but you are already having a life not worrying of what you mentionned before? nah...you dont need more money...but riches care about the poor? nah...they are more willing to "stay sad" than distribute their wealth...and also they are more than willing to fuck with poor ppl lives if they can be wealthier...cause they are happy being above the poor
28:38 "your cost of living goes up with a bigger mortgage..." ...It doesn't HAVE to; you can choose to stay in a modest neighborhood instead of 'upgrading.' My husband and I have bought a house twice. Both times, we based our budget on one income even though we both worked and could afford a bigger/better house. We wanted to be sure we could afford any unexpected issues with the house, and also be able to carry on if one of us lost our job. Turns out we move around a lot, so we went back to being renters. Moral of the story: it's OK to live below your means. Fk "the Johnsons," just keep up with yourselves
My unhappiness comes from a lack of time, which could also be seen as a lack of freedom. If I had £10m hit my bank account and I can quit my job, I will be far happier. No more mortgage, no more work, just free time to work on myself and dedicate to my family
Interesting and cool vid. I think that money can give you some happiness in a matter of aspect or situation. Like if you buy a holiday decoration that makes you happy. Another example is if you are struggling with life and a lot of things in it; well money can help you with that.
Both too much money and too little money creates a lot of problems. In addition, how you earn your money can make you unhappy no matter how much you earn.
El dinero puede contribuir a la felicidad al cubrir necesidades básicas y proporcionar estabilidad, pero no garantiza la felicidad duradera. Las relaciones, la salud y la satisfacción personal también son esenciales. ¿Qué opinas tú?
Depends on the person. If it’s one of those “…all the money in the world wouldn’t help them!” sort of people, definitely not. If it is someone who could be a “millionaire next door” type, definitely.
It doesn't buy it 1:1, but as the first story pointed out, it definitely facilitates it. Moreso for people who have struggled without it. The statement "money doesn't buy happiness" has a bit of truth to it because it is possible to be rich and miserable. There is some measure of value in being able to be happy with what you have, but for most it seems that we don't want an obscene amount of money, just enough to not have to worry about bills and live as opposed to survive.
Money doesnt buy it. It merely buys you the slightly more likely opportunity to find it. It opens doors, but it can't decide your happiness for you-thats on you. So making goals for what yoi need to do before you're happy-youre literally deciding that THAT is when you'll be happy. You're telling yourself you have to achieve things to obtain it.
I don't necessarily think money buys happiness but being able to earn a living wage(100k for example) and not recklessly spent money constantly "can" greatly reduce someones stress
I hate how the poverty line has been outdated as a benchmark for how poor you are. 35Kyr you can't afford any amount of real independence especially when rents go up annually
Bro just reread the same thing over and over for 40 minutes ffs And money absolutely equals happiness, I still open my cabinets at home several times a day every day to make sure I still have food, I still have nightmares of hearing my little sister crying in hunger, I remember the feeling of dumpster diving for a meal or using an outdoor porta potty as shelter from the cold at night. Only people who have money say that it doesn't and that's only because they've never struggled enough to appreciate it

Doesn't buy happiness but it does lighten misery
It gives you the chance to have some happiness.

You can’t buy low,but you can rent it.

Money can't buy you happiness, but it can rent you paradise

Money doesn't buy happiness but it's easier to cry in a corvette than on a bicycle

Im just saying I've never seen anybody crying on a jetski.
Your current live VS your current life with more money? Obviously Yes!!!!

I dunno, I'd be pretty happy if I made $200k or more a year.
yup
