Can money buy happiness?

Seems like people think money can't buy happiness more.

Thanks but I'll leave this thread up for a bit longer and hopefully come up with a majority vote or have you already put a conclusion in your thread.

Yeah, I think it has. Even though I fought it to the end.


No one knows what I mean...

There are many ways to happiness.
The ways depends on the individual and money can be one of them.

You can perfectly be happy without money 

@Nightwolf:
Yeah, you are correct. I shouldn't have said it as an absolute.
It helps, but is usually not enough alone.

money can't buy happiness unless you use it to make some one you care about to share it with, so making them happy makes you happy, but if there's no one to share it with, well..what's the point of money then, and also if you think money can buy happiness, there is another reason if can't because you'll buy something and then you'll be happy but you'll want more and more until you run out of money and then you'll be sad again and als zeriab is right, you can be happy with out money, because the best things in life are free 

If you have no money you can't pay your bills, if you can't pay your bills, you loose your house, if you loose your house then your a tramp...

I don't know any happy tramps ?

It's actually rare but I once saw a happy tramp lying around at a bus stop, except he had a ipod with him , anyway I guess that's one flaw to what I said unless your on wellfare, if you got fired from your job.

money can buy happiness but only if you earned it. if i get something for free i'll be like sweet this is pretty good but if i feel that i earned it i will enjoy it much more

I have once bought some happiness with some money
Therefore money can buy you happiness.

It didn't last that long, but it still was happiness, no doubt.

so really money can't buy happiness but instead only rent it...but when you run out well...you'll be sad won't you...

God, seriously, I guarantee if anyone of you had any kind of real money you wouldn't be judging so quick. How can you say when you haven't had real wealth..?

Come on. EVERYONE's happy with some loose change in their pocket. I'm not talking about millions, but a small amount of money can make you happy if you buy something you like.

That's terrible. Go see a psychiatrist.

Nice typing btw.

Sounds like drugs...

Personally, I could care less how much money I have (although I admit this may change after I move out).
I firmly believe that money and greed are the roots of all evils and find myself disgusted by those around me who let their greed overcome their morals.

Money = DS = Happy.

Money IS happiness.

i disagree. no matter how much money you have if you never use it, it can never make you happy

Who wouldn't use money? But I guess I get your point.

Spoiler for:

Look at what money did to ***** ******

Money buys me Skittles and Skittles make me happy, so in a way yes!

Money can get you whatever physical thing you desire. Happiness, however, can only come from oneself.

Hmmm....define happiness?
