The more money you have the happier you will be. Anyone who tells you differently isn't being realistic.
Earning anything above a certain "threshold wage" (ie. enough to meet basic needs of human life) with not affect your level of happiness or life-satisfaction in any significant way. Anyone who tells you differently hasn't read any psychological studies blatantly showing otherwise.
Just gotta learn to be happy with yourself. Then life will be good
Suh-nip.
My girlfriend's father is a muli-millionaire and he's a right miserable sod.
What you seem to be saying is that "the more money you have the less financial stress you will have to deal with" which is true, but lack of stress doesn't equate to happiness.
The human psyche is so much more complex than any self-decided internet expert on the matter can conceive, I'm afraid.
What an exceptionally fortunate case study, for you. That single example, of a miserable (excuse the pun) 'muli' millionaire, has changed my entire perspective. What did you really hope to gain from providing us with that, on in a million, example?
I said, exactly, that which I wished to convey. Do not suppose that you would be capable of understanding my thoughts. I certainly didn't equate happiness, directly, with a lack of stress. If you need a reinterpretation. I correlated financial prosperity with general well being. As a direct Exponential.
The human psyche isn't as complex as you, and all of the 'back to community college mums' and CSI fans studying psychology, would like to think. Unfounded accusations concerning the depth on my knowledge of the subject matter. Shows a general lack of respect, debating skills and is really quite base.
Your fears don't concern me.
