I mean do you think that money it's needed to enjoy life can't you enjoy your life without him? I mean without lots? What do you need to be happy and enjoy life? What do you think about the relation money-enjoy_life? Share here your thoughts... I see out there so many people looking to get rich and I ask my self why? Why does he wants to be rich he need it to enjoy life? What about taking a total wild life without any cent where you have to hunt to life would you be happy?

I do not think you need a lot of money to enjoy your life. I have never had a lot of money as a matter of fact most of the time we have enough to pay the bills. I find that you can go to a state or county fair which doesn't cost a lot. Here you can see animals and be entertained by local musicians. Since I bought my home in Tennessee I find I do not need money at all. We like to sit out on the front or back porch and just watch the wild life go by. We also find that playing outdoor games with family and friends do not cost a lot of money. You can even have friends over, where they each bring a covered dish so that it doesn't cost you a lot for food. There are people who just want to get rich and most of them are very sad and unhappy people. I believe that the more money you save the less of life you enjoy. You only need enough money to get your bills paid so that you are not living on the streets with no food. People who are rich are so worried about loosing the money that they are not really happy. As far as the total wild life things, I don't think I could do that. I have a friend who is a hunter and it cuts down on his food bills. I think that is great if you can do it. I however, could never kill an animal. I am not a vergitarian but I am not a killer either. I am happy with the little bit of money I have because my bills are paid. After my bills are paid I like to just sit back and enoy life. I don't need a lot of money to have fun.

I completely agree with your affirmations most of people think that they have to save all the money they have and spend the less they can... I mean if you have to save money so why do you save it to buy a fast car why? for what? This is sad but many many people think like this but my opinion is really what you said the more saving the less you spend and if you spend less you enjoy less. There are very little beautiful free things that can easily put a smile on your face really we just need to have the enough to pay the bills after that is done and secured with have to go out and enjoy life! However this is just my opinion I'm sure there are lots of different opinions out there! Be happy! :D

I think in order to enjoy life you need enough money to get the necessities you need in life and in a perfect world that would mean shelter, water, food, etc. but for a lot of people they believe necessities are designer labels, fast cars, gourmet food, etc. I'm not saying they are - because they aren't by no means, but in some people's mind that is just the way it is.

Yes your are right there are so many peoples that dream with being rich and have a big house with a pool and fast cars expensive things... When you find a person like that just ask them why, I'm sure that person will not reply you or just answer "to be happy" without a truth smile in his or her face. Thanks for posting and Happy myLotting :D

Hi, Krux! I'd be thrilled with enough to pay the bills without having to do some jugging to accomplish that. Anything more would be fun, I guess, but not at all important.

Having enough money to pay the bills it's just a necessity all we have but many people dream with being rich i don't see any point on that I myself had though on being rich but then i thought twice and i just asked why? and i didn't found any answer. The most important thing is to be happy and enjoy life anyways! Thanks, happy myLotting!

I would be lying if I say that I do not need money to enjoy life. Money helps for you to enjoy things that you want to do like watching movies or dining out. Just enough amount of money is fine with me. I need not be a millionaire to fully experience the pleasures of life.

Personaly i think that money is the cause to some problems but, on the other hand, is the solution to those problems that it creates! When you have money you keep thinking that you can buy something and you spend the money you have on it and when you see something else you want you don't have anymoney left to buy it! But when you don't have money you don't care about buying something and not having money to buy another because you only buy what you really need! Good MyLotting to you all!
