Yes, it does. For money augments most of my financial needs. Which makes my feelings very light. But money is not everything to me. There are still a lot of reasons which makes me happy.

I have heard people say this a long time. But when I tell the people if money does not bring happiness then just give me your money and I will be happy and you will be happy as then you won't have money to spoil your fun..but i never got a dime off anyone..they just think you are stupid and walk away. Yes, the rich are different. They are not better or wiser but they can buy some diversions and hire protection and delay the pain a lot longer then the poor..but we all end up in the same place.

Four years ago and I was on less than 1/2 what I am currently on, and I was much happier than I am now. Friends & family make you happy. The best money can do is make life a little more comfortable or give you a way to forget the pain for a moment.

I've seen an awfully lot of miserable rich people but more miserable poor ones. Of course, I've also seen happy people of both persuasions. You can be happy in any financial circumstance if you choose to. I was happy poor and I'm happy now when I have a bit more money. I feel sorry for those people with money, fame and more troubles than they can handle.
