    To some extent you need money to fulfil your basic needs , if you have a little extra that will add that spice in happiness. But always thinking about money is stupidty. Cherish the time with your loved ones. you have the time in your hand before its too late.:)

    Money can buy temporary happiness but not the forever happiness

    Yes and no, if you are generally happy more money can bring you more happiness,. You can buy pretty much anything apart from health with money, although money gives you a better shot at getting better. Overall more money means more happiness, but there are exceptions. Personally I'll take more money, I know I will be happier.

    I think money can make one person happy. If you do it for good everyone will be happy too.

    It depends on your attitude towards life. You can stay happy even when you are poor and you can be the unhappiest person even when you are filthy rich. :)

    Absolutely, in the society that i live in its been setup that my conditioning since birth means that i cant exist outside of society as i know it without money and the depressing concrete open prison of a city that i live in means without money to keep me happy then its pretty gloomy.

    I place major importance on money and happiness.

    Am i shallow, or just realistic about life and my situation. :)

    we can;t buy happiness with money. 2 years ago i was really happy no money no tention nothing, but as i grew up , tention increased day by day. Now i have money earning around 1000$ easily from internet which is more than required money for me but still i m not happy. i don;t know why but i m not happy. i was happy when i was kid but now life is meaningless. we have money don;t have time to spend it.

    Well guys thanks for youe intrest in this interting topic Can money Buy HAppinss? You dont need alot of money to be happy, Happiness is a feeling which comes with in your heart and grows with saitsfaction and contentment. Excess of everything is bad. Money and more money makes you selfish and greedy. You keep seeking all sorts of ways of making money. They are right or wrong doesnt make any differnce to you. When you enter that rat race of money.

    You got my point chunumunnu,

    Life is very short,we keep struggling most of it in making money, sadly some time we dont have any time left to spend it.:(

    Money can buy happiness if you have just sufficient amount in your kitty. You are the boss when you have minimum sufficient money to run your life. When it becomes excess, money will become your boss :rolleyes:

    I think money can buy some sort of happiness. Less stress when paying bills, more time to spend with family members, more time to enjoy the nice things in life............:)

    I think money can't buy happiness. Happiness is depended on once set of mind. some body is happy is with little & person with alot of money is carving for happiness. So, it is ones nature & set of mind.
