Money improves general sense of well being?
I've noticed that the more money i make the happier i am. For instance, i've been smiling more lately, sleeping better & longer...and its easier to get an erection.
Hell even being nicer to people on the boards.... Something strange is going on indeed...but i think it might be related to having more money? Someone should do a research study on the direct link between money & mental health..... |

it is a mathematical proportion more money = more happy less money = more depression, angrier |

Not sure about a sense of wellbeing for me, but it sure brings a sense of security, accomplishment, and independence. |

I think too much money is a bad thing as well, seems like the more money you make, the less you want to spend it.
I know lots of rich people that won't even pick up the tab at dinner, i guess thats how they got rich? |

technically, as a geek, the more money u have, the more time u have, which goes to what u do with that time... if u exercise more than u will feel better..
or if u spend more time with loved ones, then u feel better therefore money does improve well being now quiet, im watchin my rocco movies!

My wise, hard labor working Grandfather has told me "99% of happiness is money. And if you have that much money you can buy the other 1%" hehe
But then again the more you make the more you spend. I like money, it makes me pretty happy. Actually not the money itself, but the freedom that having lots of cash gives you. |

I disagree with the money = happiness theory. I USED to agree with it, but no longer. From first hand experience, you can have all the money in the world, but if you have a serious illness (not necessarily a life threatening one, but one that simply affects your quality of life), then the money does NOT contribute much to your happiness. Believe me, a well-off person dying of cancer would much rather be as poor as a church mouse but healthy. Plain and simple. Sure money can help to pay medical bills, but that's about it as far as happiness is concerned.

All the media research shows that
rich != happiness To enjoy money you have to have been in a position where you didn't have so much, otherwise you just take it for granted and don't really appriciate all the new opportunities you have. |

In my experience, increases in money stop correlating directly with increases in happiness when you reach the point where you have a roof over your head, decent wheels, no 9-5 grind job working for an asshole boss, and a nice nest egg. It helped mostly by removing the stress I used to feel over where the rent money or food money was coming from etc.
Past that point tho.. does having a $80k car to get from A to B really make you happier than a $15k car? Maybe for a moment or two, but it never lasts, and there is always something better that you don't have. Same thing with houses & portfolio's and shit. It can start to become an obstacle to happiness then. So if you have wheels, a roof, no job, and some security, and your still not happy, its probably time to realize the problem is with you, not your bank account. Keeping things in perspective is the most important thing. |

Money is an energy. If you pour it into something that is false it doesn't mean happy. But if you put it into something that is good for you, then yes it can be a happy place.

There are many things to be concerned about in life. Money only relieves one concern and that is financial concern. I personally would give up all that I have, to have a normal back again, not to have to live with daily pain and be concerned about the day that I will become paralyzed.

money/ability to provide, is also related related to fulfilling to the most basic human needs for sex, love and companionship. --------------------------- "From Abraham Maslow Abraham Maslow is known for establishing the theory of a hierarchy of needs, writing that human beings are motivated by unsatisfied needs, and that certain lower needs need to be satisfied before higher needs can be satisfied. the general order of these human needs: Physiological Needs Physiological needs are the very basic needs such as air, water, food, sleep, sex, etc. When these are not satisfied we may feel sickness, irritation, pain, discomfort, etc. These feelings motivate us to alleviate them as soon as possible to establish homeostasis. Once they are alleviated, we may think about other things. Safety Needs Safety needs have to do with establishing stability and consistency in a chaotic world. These needs are mostly psychological in nature. We need the security of a home and family. However, if a family is dysfunction, i.e., an abusive husband, the wife cannot move to the next level because she is constantly concerned for her safety. Love and belongingness have to wait until she is no longer cringing in fear. Many in our society cry out for law and order because they do not feel safe enough to go for a walk in their neighborhood. Many people, particularly those in the inner cities, unfortunately, are stuck at this level. In addition, safety needs sometimes motivate people to be religious. Religions comfort us with the promise of a safe secure place after we die and leave the insecurity of this world. Love Needs Love and belongingness are next on the ladder. Humans have a desire to belong to groups: clubs, work groups, religious groups, family, gangs, etc. We need to feel loved (non-sexual) by others, to be accepted by others. Performers appreciate applause. We need to be needed. Beer commercials, in addition to playing on sex, also often show how beer makes for camaraderie. When was the last time you saw a beer commercial with someone drinking beer alone? Esteem Needs There are two types of esteem needs. First is self-esteem which results from competence or mastery of a task. Second, there's the attention and recognition that comes from others. This is similar to the belongingness level, however, wanting admiration has to do with the need for power. People who have all of their lower needs satisfied, often drive very expensive cars because doing so raises their level of esteem. "Hey, look what I can afford-peon!" Self-Actualization The need for self-actualization is "the desire to become more and more what one is, to become everything that one is capable of becoming." People who have everything can maximize their potential. They can seek knowledge, peace, esthetic experiences, self-fulfillment, oneness with God, etc. It is usually middle-class to upper-class students who take up environmental causes, join the Peace Corps, go off to a monastery, etc. " |

Of course an ill rich person would rather be a healthy poor person. But A poor ill person would rather be a rich ill person also.

Of coarse you feel better when you have money bro! No matter what anyone tries to believe, the world revolves around cash. When you have it and don't have to think about it all the time, you're better able to enjoy life.
