For me being happy is not measured of how much money you have in the bank. How big is your house. How many car you owned. My happiness is my FAMILY,our health and our relatuonship with each other. As long as we can eat 3 times a day & go to school.Having a simple life, thats more than enough to make me happy! How about YOU?

Money or richness cannot buy us happiness. It is purely the inner feeling, when mind is clear, without any unwanted thoughts.

Partially, but not totally. In happiness, there plenty of aspects like good health condition, good comfort at home, good relationship, etc. and with regards to good health, hospitals now a days are very expensive. I'm not saying that all people will get sick but if he or she does and doesn't have the means to pay for it in order get cured. I've said that because it happened in our family, ending up selling all of our properties. If we had just enough money during those sad days, things would have gone differently now.

yeah same, I never have thought of it because, I only think of money as an extra im fifteen years old. I only think money as extra, you do need it, But life key things are the key, family,friends,health,people! each other! Money is just something of trade. I want some mylot online money to buy me Valve Steam Games like Half-Life 2 Counter-Strike Source. Source is $20 I may never reach even ten.
