You have enough money but no family/friends/relatives, only you are alone in the universe, do you think you will enjoy the days?

You can say that money does not bring happiness but I want to ask "REALLY"..

Think if you had no money what would you do? You would not be able to satisfy your needs. Anyone who does not earn sufficient money suffers from depression and lack of self esteem..

Many would oppose this but the fact remains money brigs pleasure.. It makes things easy for us and thus we have less to think about.

 

Whatever might happen in the end the present is important and one needs money to have happy present..

money is definitely required to meet the basic needs of people. but only money can not bring happiness. more than required money brings a tension, insecurity and vices.

Money is a basic necessity but can't be only reason to bring happiness. Sound health and a happy family life can give happier moments of the life.

Dear Sir, the first thing is that how can I suppose that a person who is in no way related to me will give me 10 million dollars !!! The second thing is that if I accept the money, what is the guarantee that within one hour police raid in my house because of keeping illegal money. The last thing is I will never accept such money in any way.

No, money can be the one of the medium of happiness but its not only thing for happiness. You can purchase bed by the money but not sound sleep. Money is highly required for the every step of life but life is not run fully by the money. Sometimes money brings so many tensions with it and it spoils everything.

I personally believe that only money can't bring happiness. It is something other than money that bring actual happiness.Money is something one need to live in this world but it can never be surely said that such living will be accompanied with happiness. The need of money is endless, the more you get, the more you need. So the secret of happiness is not present in the process of earning money because the process is endless i.e. there is no point of satisfaction. At the end of life everybody is same- " A Pot of Ashes" whether he is billionaire or he is beggar.

Partha :  Suppose I gave you 10 Million dollars. What would you do ? Just think.

 

Money means an opportunity to lead a life you always desired to lead, but cannot due to financial constraints, professional pressures etc.

Most of us spend the prime years of our life working hard to make just enough money!  Not all are becoming Bill Gates or Ambani.

So, please accept it my friend, that we are all in need of money only. Otherwise there are better things to do than to simply work in an office and wait for the next month's salary!

Money is one of the very important key to happiness. It's because today even the happiness is calculated with money. like, Distributing gifts among relatives/friends exhibits "happiness", Flaunting your achievements with different properties you purchased exhibits "happiness" So more money you earn.. more units of happiness and love you get.

In India like, we can make following standards :

income of 1 lac rupees = 1 happiness unit

giving a gift of diamond necklace to your girl friends or wife = 1 unit of love etc. :)

Money helps you to buy all Worldly- pleasure that one aspire to achieve in one's life-time . The degree & extent of aspiration may differ from individual to individual. But, in total, in the present scenario from Sanyasi to King, everyone wants money to achieve the goal they set-in. That assures them happiness.

Thanks for referral Mr. Kiran Kumar Reddy.

Yes. With money we can manage lifestyle and health. Without money we cannot live. So, for a sane person, money is the only requirement.Other things can be managed with money. Tell me, my friends, what for are you working for the 80% of the time in your life ? Money! Money! Money! Those who disagree must be hypocrites.

Money accords empowerment to buy goods,services rudimentary to your every day requirement. Happiness is a degree for comparison.You are happy this moment with money and unhappy the moment you spend it unwisely. So,other option is also valid.

Thanks,Mr Reddy for referral.
