Does Money Make You Happy? - Page 3

Our main goal in life is to be comfortable, financially. We may work hard to pay off our debts or save money to acquire material possessions. But at the end of the day, the more money we accumulate, the more alienated we become from our friends and family members. We make sacrifices to gain more wealth, we neglect the ones we love and we forget about the finer things in life: like relaxing on the beach or having a romantic dinner with that special someone. Money cannot buy you happiness nor true love.

Some may agree that it is better to have someone special in your life rather than curling up in bed with a bag of cash, every single night!

Happy You Money Does

That's an absolute generalization, it may be in your experience but not necessarily for everyone. A lot of us, put family as our main goal in life and then of course to be able to have the means to look after them but I won't go and say that my main goal in life is to be financially comfortable.

I do not think that anyone would say, "when I grow up, I want to be poor." Most of us would strive to be comfortable financially (notice I said comfortable and not to become a millionaire) because no one enjoys worrying about money. It is every parent's nightmare to be concerned about: if there is enough money to feed the family for the week; the child who needs medical attention but cannot get it because it is not affordable or there is no money to buy clothes or shoes for the children. Yes I agree that family may be a main goal in most individuals' lives but how are we to support that family without money? If you think about it, the money factor is important and even though we may not admit it, being financially comfortable may give us all peace of mind.

I am not disputing this at all, I agree. The money factor is indeed important and absolutely necessary. I am challenging your statement that "our main goal in life is to be comfortable financially". As I said, I think it's a generalization. My main goal in life is NOT related to money.

Yes, I am happy for what little money I have. Without money, I would not have food, I would not have water, I would not have a place to live, I would be dead. A corpse cannot pursue happiness. Even though it may be true that money cannot buy happiness, money can at least purchase the opportunity to pursue happiness.
