i know that when i don't have a lot of money a lot of the times we can't go out and do every thing that we want to do all of the time, but for the most part i am happy most of the time, and i know that if i had money and was happy that would be great but if i had a lot of money and i was unhappy i wouldn't enjoy it because whats the good in having money if i am not enjoying it because i am happy with the other parts of my life...so if i had to choose one, rather be happy and not have that much money or either not be happy and have money i honestly think that i would choose not having a lot of money..so what about all of you, would you rather be rich and not completely happy or either be poor and be happy(except for not having a ton of money)? i hope that you all are having a great day and thanks for taking the time to read my discussion and i hope that you all have a great day!

I wont prefer any of those. I dont want to be neither rich and unhappy nor poor and happy. Its all depends on the situation that we are in. I dont want my life should be filled with full happy or fully unhappy. It should be a mixture of both.

both

I would rather be poor and happy...Having my family close is all I would need..Unfortunately we need money to survive....but who needs that much...

i would totally rather be rich! even if i was unhappy, i would have money to soothe my sad heart! lol seriously, i hate having to worry about the next bill and how we are going to pay it! it really sucks to be in this position!
