The saying "money can't buy you happiness" was most likely said by someone who was never poor or had forgotten what it was like to be poor. That person should spend just one week in financial desparation and then rethink those words. Others say something along the lines of "money doesn't buy happiness but it buys the stuff that makes you happy". For goodness sakes that is just the same difference. Money does buy happiness and in order to truly reap the benefits of life you've got to be rich. Get money, get wealth, get paid. I think I have been very clear.
The best education costs enough money to feed a small country with at least rice and clean water for a week. A reliable automobile costs a pretty penny, even if it is second hand. Quality and suitable clothing don't have to be of the utmost in cost but are rarely free. Rent, mortgage, water, heat. Shelter, food, and amenities that should not be considered luxury rather requirements for civilized human living, cost a great deal even if you conserve and use coupons. Hospital and doctor visits are not free of charge. We haven't even gotten into how expensive having any sort of entertainment in your life will cost. I could rack up a list that would take all day to read so I'll stop there.
The time is now to really see how much you deserve to enjoy all that life has to offer. Be passionate about life and jump into being successful financially wholeheartedly. If you could do one thing for yourself it should be to get rich. Once you have become wealthy you can enjoy the fine things life has to offer only the rich. If you have an entrepreneurial spirit then get into an investment opportunity that will allow you to profit greatly and see a large return. If it is in your nature to be subordinate then at least discover how you can work your way up in your place of employment, possibly even easing yourself into a position of entrepreneurialism. You have what it takes so when those juvenile and defeatist thoughts come into your mind shoot them down because they'll get you nowhere. It may be cheesy but you really should only allow positive thinking about what you desire and positive supportive people around you while you're building your dream. Once you've found your niche and discovered what your passionate about and will do well with the money will come streaming in. Each day that we allow ourselves to put achieving our goals and dreams aside we fail. We fail at attaining what is rightfully ours, and that is comfort in life, the ability to go to sleep and wake up rested and knowing another day has come that we can enjoy to the fullest without worry. Scraping by pay check to pay check or over extended on credit cards at the end of each month can only lead to stress and stress related illness, which pretty much every illness is triggered or worsened by stress.
Take some time out for yourself every day to enjoy life, brainstorm about how you can achieve great wealth and never give up until you are financially free. We all have our own idea of what it means to be financially independent and what comfortable living means so it is ultimately up to you how much money you need in order to deem yourself financially rich.

Who needs money in his everyday life? We encounter the need for money almost everywhere, from shopping to eating at stalls and even to the basic needs. We feel contented if these needs are satisfiably met, however, if not, this can cause worry which leads to unhappy lifestyle. It is somehow true what our parents used to teach us that money can't buy happiness because it cannot be literally bought. Of course it cannot. Nevertheless, everyday we are being bought with money from the time you wake up to the time you go to sleep. If you don't have such resources, how then can you survive and will you be happy with it?
Morally speaking, money can't buy happiness because of the implications towards us that our happiness should not depend on material things. But reality check, it is true that money can buy happiness and psychological studies has proven the theory.
A poll survey conducted by Adweek tackled affirmations from different age brackets in the society that tells us that money is equated to happiness. The older one gets the greater is his linkage of happiness with money due to the burden of mortgages, college funds and midlife responsibilities.
Although it depends on your own the definition of money and happiness. Imagine that you wake up to go to school and ask your Mom to give you allowance, then she says "No!". Does it make you happy to hear that from her? On a larger scale, why do people go to lottery stalls to take their chances of winning? The hope to alleviate their lives, if they are happy with their present situation then why should they go to the lottery to take their chances? All of us are working to provide for our needs and it is frustrating to think that you wake up in the morning with no food in the table.
There is no need for a study to know that wealthy people can afford more merry-makings because their money allows them to afford such activities.
Once you begin to move beyond basic background information, you begin to realize that there's more to happiness than you may have first thought.
Rich people are happier according to study than that of low income family. It is the satisfaction on life that makes the difference. If you were to compare their outlook in life. Rich people tend to be ambitious, optimistic and goal oriented while poor people are struggling to inconsistent depression and self pity. This are indications which happiness requires positive behaviour and rich people seem to posses some of it, according toUniversity of Michigan's health and retirement study.
A study conducted by David G. Blanchflow and Andrew Oswald analyzde the impact of social flow and economic status of American today showing a decline from 34% to 30% of unhappy individuals who took the survey. The study is to prove the thoery if in anyhow the happines weighed in with money. Significantly understood thatmoeny is not about the cash but the assets and liabilities one has. Who cannot be happier if you have a large house to live in, a full stomach and once in a while to enjoy outdoor recreation. You cannot possibly obtain these simple pleasures if your money earned is just consumed by your food and for paying your utilities..
We are living in a day to day basis for survival and we are affected materially so as to say that money indeed has that influence in this material world. Almost what you have from your head to toe requires a minimum amount of money, from toddler to college years and considering a degree takes most of your investment. If you graduate in college, you are much more equipped in life. You began to have confidence way beyond than those who were not able to finish any degree. For this, we must take account of the importance of money in fulfilling that dream that somehow has brought your life changes and makes it a lot happier.
Medically speaking, doctors have observations that rich people tend to have better health than low income families, this means that rich people live healthier lifestyles. What money can offer is convenience. The fact is, there is a relative influence with regards to how we react when monetary flow in our lives tend to increase or decrease.
With regards to marriage break ups and statistics, the inability to compensate the need to raise a family is one of primary reasons that might influences the smooth flow of relationships. Broken marriages leads to unhappy life and for what reason? Simple, money does matter.
That's how things stand right now. The debate about money can sometimes seem never end. But, I hope you got the gist of what I'm trying to tell you here.
