How important is money to you?

This is the fact "Money can make people Happy".

My family is always there for me and I will always love them, sure friends and money will be there but the most important thing to me is my religion and Family. Thats me personally, and if family is not there, friends who are good friends are the closest thing you have left.

money is important but its not everything. once you get a couple campaigns running for months on end that are doing x,xxx a day and you run out of things you want to realistically buy you will start to spend alot more time with friends and family and having fun.

Money makes me happy. When I see my bankaccount going downhill I always feel down. But when the money stat to build up in there I get happy and more motivated to work and do stuff.

I hope/think that you meant money does "not" buy happiness. Correct? But damn, I definitely have to take a look at that book. It sounds good. Thanks for the share.

No

Money indeed DOES buy happiness

Just not nearly as much as people think

The professor's famous quote from that book is:

"Whoever said money doesn't buy happiness never lived in a cadboard box."

The only thing is, once you make 75k a year, making more money per year doesn't buy anymore.

When the first ever coin was made on this planet, Satan Kissed it and said something like this to himself, " Whoever will love money will be my slave".

Now I like money coming in but I'm not in love with it. I like money comin gin coz it gives me an opportunity to help others. I love this forum but I'm not into too much of blackhat. I learn blackhat to protect myself from falling prey to another black hat buddy.

As far as money is concerned, it surely cannot buy love. If you have a gal who claims to love you when you take her to big malls for shopping, travel with her in a private jet and spend quality time with her she is not in love with you. She is in love with all the perks coming with you.

Money cannot buy sleep, can't buy hunger, can't buy loyalty, can't buy friends, can't buy life.

If you are earning to pile it in your bank I guess it is just a piece of shit and fruitless.

I would prefer to send some money ahead of me in the world where I would require it, The HEREAFTER.

I know I sound kinda a weird and stupid, but there is a world par from this life and everyone will be soon experiencing it sooner or later.

My deal to have money to secure my life in the HEREAFTER.

In short, I like money but don't crave for it, coz it will always influence me to be a SATAN SLAVE and I don't wanna be one of them.

in reference to tony_raymondo stating that Professor's quote,


What is the man slept well in the cardboard box rather than in his new apartment or new bungalow? Will he be happy with all the money he has if he is not able to sleep well.

What if he also join the race to earn more money and all he gain is tension and no time for his family?

What if he see so much food that his appetite dies just seeing it?


Dude i have a bed in my house but I still love sleeping on the floor. You all might not believe, but when I sleep on the bed, I wake up at 7-8 in the morning, but when I sleep on the floor, I usually sleep extra 2 hours (approx)




All the people who run after money are members of Club99. They always look for little more and that little is never accomplished.


I don't say that you don't need money. I just say money is just a need and not a desire. be happy with the money you need and don't desire for unnecessary and extra penny until and unless you can put that extra penny for someone else's benefit.



@ OP: Hey Op you crave for money because you got something from your family that you never wanted. but in contrast when it is between choosing your 2 friends and money you choose friends. why? because it is your friends who make you happy and not money.


Just be naice to people in your surrounding and you will see the KARMA CHAKRA working in your favor.


(Btw naice is not a typos unintentional. it was my ex-gf's habit to type in place of nice. i miss her. Money can't bring her back to me)

It's different for everyone. My best friend could care less about money, he's a drummer for an upcoming band and he just started dating a hot model chick. He works at a theater and has about $230 bucks to his name. I started getting into business at age 17, worked for a venture capital firm when I was 18, started my own business about 8 months ago. I grossed $17000 last month and it's growing.

Money was quite important and still is for me yet, my friend is just as happy as I am without it, if not more happy because he's got his new girlfriend. Than again he can't afford a bad trip to Thailand this winter and kick back for two weeks of sunshine, good food, hot girls and partying.

U can say that again, mate! That is what this world is ALL about. Me and my fam are MUCH more happier since I made my buck! It has a BIG impact on this wordly life!

But family and friends (living beings) must always come first. They should be the most important (things?) in our lifes.

The Biggest Lie is "Money doesn't buy happiness"

Money doesn't buy long term joy... the things that come from within. It buys pleasure, which makes me happy.

It's a hard concept - money does make me happy, but doesn't buy me the type of joy that only comes from my family/productivity/service.

Basically, I want it all: Things that quench my thirst for power, satisfaction of my lustful desires, and the ability to help people make positive change in their lives.

A harem of diverse women is like #5 on my list.

Ultimately, money provides the freedom and resources needed to go after the things that would really bring us joy. I'm learning to worship the process that creates money, and not the money itself.

Im not a clown. And i already learned before you were even born. Im still young. Im a teenager. For now, only money can bring me happiness. I am so fortunate with my family. The place we live in. Also in girls, i have no problem with that. It's just that im too young to focus on mature things like family, etc. Money can buy me everything i want. I can do everything i want, whenever i want it with money. It's just that, it's the only thing that makes me happy right now. Well, we all have our own opinions and we all have something we believe in. For me, i believe that money can bring me all the happiness i want.

I told myself that i will focus on relationships when i'm already a millionaire. Because i wanna be financially stable for my kids. Also, i wanna enjoy my life first. Im sick and tired of seeing those young couples who gets divorced in the end. So why not have fun first before thinking about settling in? Oh well, most of you will think it's a stupid idea. But hey, it's my life. WE ALL have the right to choose our own paths. Because you know what? No one can ever learn from anyone else's mistakes. We have to make our own.

That's all. Just sayin'.

Well, since you are a teenager and I am 21 years old you obviously have not been learning before I was born. I was learning before YOU were born. But, I really am just trying to help you. Please start learning about money and what it really is. PM me anytime if you want some place to start. Thanks.

money >all

Lack of money is the root of all evil! Money may not buy everything, but whatever it can't buy, I don't need anyway!

According to you now, money may be life. It is just paper.

Well said Wiz.

After 3 years read the same post, you will hate yourself. When you have achived many things you wont have any one to live with you.

There can be hot girls who can come with you. but only for money..

So always have the mantra, family is wealth
