    I love how real the first girl kept it. Money can buy happiness, but that's because it buys security. Many people today are living paycheck to paycheck and needing to worry about food or housing. Once that's eliminated, you're free to focus on things that actually make you happy. Also, your sweater story is so sweet! I hope whoever did that for you is thriving and has a wonderful life. And I can't not give props to the lady in red who looked FABULOUS! What a great way to end the video! ✨✨

      Knowing the wonderful girls in my class, she probably is thriving ❤️. I think it’s very much like what Brock and Lori said, money alleviates problems such as security, but after that, things like relationship issues, self esteem, a terminal illness- that can’t always be fixed with money, so does it really buy happiness at the end?

      @@CynicalDuchess To me it's always been obvious that money doesn't automatically buy happiness and thus I don't get why people keep either asking the question or harping on it. To me that question is irrelevant. Money can buy security. Period. Plus, happiness comes from within anyhow.

    I relate to your story and I think this is one of your best! My father laid the floor for the Pentagon and my mother is retiring from the same job after 30 years. My dad made a lot of money, but had tax issues and bad health. I currently live in one of the most known neighborhoods in my town, yet, I probably live in the smallest house (which I like, because I'm never afraid of getting broken into and the house went up a third of its value in 3 years), but I'm constantly telling people I'm poor and yet the numbers say I'm successful, so it's an awkward place to live and be, and yet, I love it. Great job on this video!

    I used to live in the LA area and hated it. HATED IT. (San Diego? I loved living there. LA? Sorry, I know that's your hometown, but I hated it.) Except for 2 things I did really like a lot: the big Kinokuniya bookstore in Little Tokyo and.... visiting Pacific Palisades! I know Pacific Palisades is a $$$$$$$ place, but it always had such an open, airy, sunshiny, beautiful, slightly quirky vibe. I was never uncomfortable spending time there even though I didn't have money.

    • @CynicalDuchess
      @CynicalDuchess  Рік тому +1

      HAHA don’t worry, LA isn’t always my favorite place. Little Tokyo is also amazing! And yes, Palisades had some of the loveliest people, I’m so happy that’s the vibe the place gives off, so welcome

    Try it again with a woman who looks like Roseanne Barr asking the questions and see how keen people are to talk to your camera. That's not restricted to CA or even the US - we are a youth-obsessed culture here in the West. It is what it is - thanks for the vid.

    My father use to tell me, “ you still have problems when you have money, but it’s a better class of problems”. He grew up during the depression. I think what he meant was ,if you have money you have a cushion and it’s easier to solve problems when you have disposable income.

    I couldn't stop watching this video! I really appreciate your earnest account of the dichotomous relationships we all (well most of us) have with money and wealth. I, too, went to a private high school on a scholarship. I can relate to your sweater story, but maybe from an opposite experience. I remember my mom, a housekeeper at the time, bought me the J Crew sweater I had begged for, and some girl in my dorm "borrowed" it and never gave it back.. I was so mad at how insensitive some people with wealth could be. I later discovered the joys of thrifting and having actual style thankfully!

    It's nice to see that people with money remain primarily people. Unfortunately, in my country, the more money people have, the more unreasonable show-offs. Not at all, but at the bulk.
