Money alone does not bring happiness.. 😊 but it's the most essential ingredient for happiness..
Best comment. Money gives you freedom to do whatever you want without worrying about your basic needs.
Not a study, but common sense that money can buy you happiness, at least in this society.
Right
That is pleasure or fame not happiness

Only money can buy happiness. Well said Palki Ma'am
Money can buy 99% of problems, other 1% is still not enough money
Fax food.
Licked food.
Spit food.

Well said.. 99% is a yes
When I was young I thought that money was the most important thing in life; now that I am old I know that it is.
Oscar Wilde
If you live in Nigeria where every citizen is his or her own government as it were, you will find out that money can buy you a lot of happiness. I can attest to that as someone who has tasted poverty and also handled some money. Indeed, I found out that money can make certain problems disappear. Anyone who says money cannot buy happiness has obviously not been without it for very long. But the truth is that when you have been in money for a long time, the happiness levels kind of plateau and you do not get vastly happier. Your circle of friends reduce, you become more paranoid as the level of envy and jealousy around you starts to increase. Also, if you are in a society where there is a large number of poor people, you start to stand out like a sore thumb and you have to start building a wall around yourself, your family and your wealth. Then it starts to feel like you are in a prison.
Words of wisdom right here!
Been saying this to myself for a whole decades but everyone think im wrong. money does bring happiness, heck!, thankgod i wasnt the only one feeling this, been saying this all over the comments that money does brings you happiness i dont care if it makes me miserable ,or happy . when you have money you can do anything but if you dont , oh hell loose breaks , etc and shits.
Agree
All the happiest countries are also the richest countries.
Not really! People in America are still broke
Seriously ? That index is western biased 💯 percent
All the richest countries also have the most suicide rates.

the issue is most people believe money is happiness and chase for it throughout their lifetime, hence study reflects what people believe not the actual truth. A learned man with whole lot of experiences will never correlate the two.
When you have health and money it can make you happy , with money you can never be depressed, stress, anxiety money is powerful once you have good health you can enjoy your lives. Steve job has everything that supposed to make him happy but he has no good health to make him happy let us wishes for good health then we can be happy with ours money.
That's no brainer. Imagine having no money for a month.
Well kids live like that for at least 10+ years
@@unknown.m.e because money was spent by parents?
Materialism or material body.?
He is just a vegetable.LSD programme.

It really depends on what makes you happy.
What makes me happy is to have a decent place to live, a healthy food to eat, travel and explore the world, and everything that makes me feel safe and joyful.
In order for me to attain those is to have a good solid stable income.
So money is involve. The more money the higher the possibilities of attaining those.
it's about freedom, when you have more money, you are freer and you can do what interests you
Money can be one source of happiness but not the only one. I think health and being surrounded by loved ones are equally important sources. Remove one from the equation and happiness can be greatly affected. Can't just bet on money alone, it's not fair on money 😊
Money can bring you comfort, but it cannot buy health, respect, appetite, love...all we have to do is to be content and give thanks to God even with money or none...
More money, less problems
Money can solve 99% of my problem immediately, rest 1% will be solved later using that money
Some people are so poor all they have is money.
-Bob Marley
Lol that's what poor people say😂😂😂😂 For the record Bob Marley was a millionaire
Advice from a weed smoker?! Nah!! I'll keep earning more

@@hanatirk4375 Bob Marley's quote, "Some people are so poor, all they have is money," is a profound statement that highlights the difference between wealth and true riches.
He's suggesting that some individuals may have an abundance of financial resources, but they lack other essential aspects of life, such as:
1. Spiritual connection
2. Meaningful relationships
3. Personal fulfillment
4. Emotional intelligence
5. A sense of purpose
In essence, they are "poor" in the things that truly matter, even if they have a surplus of money. This quote emphasizes the importance of recognizing that wealth goes beyond material possessions and that true prosperity encompasses a holistic well-being.
Marley's words encourage us to reevaluate our priorities and strive for a more balanced and fulfilling life, where we cultivate wealth in all aspects, not just our bank accounts.

Money may or may not buy you happiness but a lack of money will certainly buy you misery!
When I am with my parents, my happiness peaks..! 😇😇
Times have come and gone and each time came with it's standards. Many years ago, we could say that money can't buy love or happiness. In this dispensation, money is the order of the day. More money, more people, more places to access.
Once a lady said , Money may not bring happiness but it does improve the standard of living.
Money is God in Planet Earth.Money is Also man made.World leaders need to get together and create one economy running the World in order to prevent poverty and hunger and everybody works to make ends meet.
Money + Health +Spiritual is the best Combo for Super Happiness ❤
If you're in a human society then money does bring happiness ❤❤❤
Money does not buy happiness. But in our Debt based financial world it gives enormous security and peace of mind.
It's true you know. How much you're paid will determine the level of happiness you'll have. Take Indians for example, most are unemployed so india's at No.126 out of 140 countries on the World Happiness Index.
Putting aside the fact that the authors of the World Happiness Report themselves admit that their measure of happiness is flawed and narrow, what you're mentioning is only a correlation. It doesn't necessarily mean being poor means being unhappy.
You believe in happiness index?? Grow up these all facts are bullshit manipulated as the need and wants of westss...and you r bullshittt too
Right
Happiness is just an abstract concept. We just need to focus on solving our problems instead than finding happiness.
Depends what you do with it.😊
Money like everything has diminishing returns. But until you reach that stage of comfort money does definitely buy you happiness, peace of mind and stability. Without food, nice shelter and clothing which only money can buy in most cases there is no happiness.
Very true. Money buys happiness but cannot increase happiness with increase in money … after a certain level it plateaus
Money is not everything, but worth in this toxic society, 95% of problems in your life can be tackle by money ❤
Money can’t buy happiness, but happiness cannot buy money.
Money doesn't buy happiness , it buys crazy a** happiness
- Eminem
Well happiness neads a clear description!
There is a difference between happiness and joy…
Earlier, there were limited avenues to spend money. Hence this adage held true for a long time. But today, we have tons of places to spend money and get joy out of it. So money CAN buy happiness in 2024. As far as hitting plateau goes, the curve sits higher now than ever
Not literally it can buy happiness but having little money can cause frustration and self pity it hinders you to have a positive outlook in life.
💥 money can buy any anything but can't buy happiness..happiness only comes with contentment
Obviously money brings happiness that's why there is a lot of corruption. People even adopt illegal means to earn money because money brings happiness
Have 10 crore rupee in bank account book FD in bank and have 6 lakh rupee monthly interest credit in bank account. Now change your room , life partner and friends everyday . You can buy new new car every month. Can get best health treatment in world. You can eat whatever you want . This money will not end for next 30 years .
You can live in best hotel, can buy expensive gifts ..... .
This is true happiness. So yes money can buy everything.
Money can’t buy happiness BUT you do need money to be Happy…
More money buys more comfort which in turns somewhat makes us happy
Money itself doesn't buy happiness, right money in right hands brings happiness.
Money is one of the basics but not the absolute basics for happiness.
Money only makes you happy in your wallet (temporarily) but poor in your soul.
Even if it is not, I would rather be miseralbe and rich than miseralbe and poor. ;-)
The choice would be miserable and rich vs happy and poor.
@@polycarp9897why not rich and happy or poor and unhappy?
Both can be happy but money does not play a role here because happiness is about doing what you love , being with family or friends @@Crownking999
Obviously. It can help you take better care of your health, of your loved ones, and it can give you the freedom to say 'no' to stuff you do not want to do at work.
Money is the core of happiness -21st century
Money does not buy Happiness but it gives a person the Freedom to choose and decide about most of the things in Life!
Money can't buy happiness,it can buy crazy happiness
Formula for Happiness == Money/Desires( Hankerings)
Money buys stress and the burden of looking after all the stuff one acquires. I think I was happier when my husband and I lived on rent and didn't have a car. No stress about house repairs/improvements, council taxes, buying insurance, or the cost of petrol. Now that we have the means, our discussions (sometimes arguments) revolve around deciding/selecting what to buy instead of more interesting things in life. We can afford air travel so we waste our time at airports. I'm still happy but I can't claim that I am happier.
This is the Land of the Buddhas , Mahaveeras and Shankaras. Here we have masters who have given us the secret to eternal happiness. We have nothing but laughter for this post.
Limited money unlimeted happiness ❤
Money is an enabler for happiness. The most useful one.
‘Money changes everything.’ - Cyndi Lauper
Godliness and contentment is a great gain 😊
No money definitely brings no happiness. Having money can not bring happiness surely
Money + Healthy human connections = Happy
If what causes you unhappiness can be rid of with money, of course money can buy happiness! For instance, if you trek everyday to work and because of that you are stressed and unhappy, if you have the money to buy a car - you will be happy! So yes, money can buy happiness if it solves your unhappiness!
They needed a study to prove this timeless truth?
Money makes life easier for sure, which removes certain stress, tensions etc from day to day life. And absence of these, can be filled in with things you love to do which increases your chance of being happy.
Those who claim money can't buy happiness just don't know where to shop.
Money can buy happiness
But being rich doesn't gaurentee happiness
Palki- love all the topics you pic. This specific topic should also account for happiness by age group.
Happiness is within. If we are happy only with things money can buy, one day when we are detached from it, our happiness goes down. Alternatively let’s say you get happy by singing- that’s something that’d endure throughout your lifetime. Choice is yours
money buys friends that can make you happy
Warren buffet once said
Work in McDonald's u will knows money buy happiness
Money may not bring all the happiness but we are not happy without $$ “Money” $$
I'm so happy working 10 hours a day at minimum wage.
Some legend once said, 'It's better to cry comfortably inside of a Marcedes than on a bicycle at a roadside.' Money may not buy happiness, but this is the sole factor that can and will help somebody to become happy.
Money is more of a medium that actly helps one to overcome most of the limitations & barriers in personal life which makes it easy to make decisions without much constraints & pressures from the world around.....
Yes money does bring happiness. Look at Mohd. Shami, Shekhar Dhawan and now the latest Hardik Pandya. But to whom, to their ex wives in terms of crores of alimony and maintainence.
Only a righteous person can be happy. A sinner can not be happy.
Even monks need money to travel and conduct discourses and to live happily in this world. Money can liberate the mind to do what it likes and not caught in worrying about paying monthly bills and making ends meet for the family and yourself, including childrens' education, health and their future. Money also enables one to help others in need. So, money frees the mind to do what it loves to do. And yes, money definitely makes one happy. No question about it.
people who use money wisely will be happy... it is not the quantity, it is the quality
Money can definitely buy happiness in most countries but not India,with or without money
Money will definitely make me happy
Money can buy experiences; experiences that make you happy. That translates to more happiness and the freedom to have more avenues to be happy. 😊😊
If any morons believe money doesn't bring happiness, send it to my bank account and watch my happiness. 😅
Money can quickly be lost in several ways (bad decisions, government policies) People who believe only money can bring happiness should ensure they stack it in their homes instead of banks or investing it somewhere. They can keep looking at the money always, sleep next to it and remain happy forever!
Money is king always
Money eliminates one of the major stresses in life...not having money.
With all the money and health, one is still not happy, because man by nature wants to become boundless ; that leads to wisdom, devotion, dispassion and spiritual quest to seek existential truths !!
More money + good health+ spiritual life and keep toxic people and partner at far will lead to more happiness
Nonsense doctrine. Money means something till roti kapda makan. Beyond this all wealthy are always worried about the wealth itself. Word's worth has said, One cup of wine, man drinks. Wine, 2nd cup of wine, wine drinks wine, 3rd cup of wine, wine drinks man. ❤
Money brings happiness to get work done in govt office to pay bribe and pay more for workers for house hold thing and also in hospital. For all this we should blame govt which is distribute free things to people who is capable of working 😢
Povery brings misery
Good health and sufficient money brings trmoundous happiness
Extra money will not bring extra happiness
Money gives the courage to face the 50 - 50 tactical situations like your near and dear if caught with curable diseases can be cured with super duper specialties hospitalization. Maa saraswati may be the passion/exploration but maa Lakshmi is the brute and harsh nature/pratical life.
Before watching video, yes a big Yess!!!!!
You think money cannot buy happiness
Habibi welcome to Dubai 😂😂
Money can buy freedom and time . Most middle class people need this .
This only applies to ppl from all desi countries including India. In west ppl want to leave jobs downsize and become minimalists
More money more happiness is / was always true, if you don't agree then you don't have much money to be happy for.
Money itself doesn’t inherently buy happiness; instead, it fulfills needs and provides social validation, which are often the true sources of discontent. The absence of these needs and the desire for social acceptance often lead to conflicts and unhappiness. Therefore, it’s not the money, but what it represents and enables that can contribute to a happier life.
A world without money will be the happiest,all the stress, greedy, luxury cars and houses and unlimited money savings were all because of money. A person living with good health,surrounded by natural vegetation and natural woods may be the happiest,with more money stress and worries appears.
