Would you rather be?

Watching my teenager overcome challenges and mature has been the greatest joy of my life. Family will always bring me more happiness than money.

It would be nice to have more but I kind of like being poor at least I know what my friends are here for

No wiser words can be spoken. So happy for your joy. I'm sure you earned it.

Genie this feels like a typo.

Money can't buy happiness. It can buy material things, but not "happiness" as you are basically saying.

If money really could buy happiness, then your question in the original post makes no sense.

Everyone would simply choose to be rich then go to the happiness story and spend some of their money. But, sadly, it doesn't work that way.

"Money can't buy happiness. It can buy material things, but not "happiness" as you are basically saying."

I stand corrected. yes, this is what I really mean. Money can buy material happiness but not innermost happiness like peace of mind.

When you start realizing it is all fukking bullshit you can start being who you were meant to be and die with a smile on your face. Haven't been to a funeral yet that people stood up and said how nice the person dressed, how much money they had, or how cool they were on the internet. It all comes down to what you do for others without being a hypocrite or a perpetual victim and praying for God's grace.

Tremendous post
