    Enough money to get by is good, but millionaires theres no point to it IMO.

    I'd rather have my family, but would you rather have money or what you have now?

    Of course money can bring happiness, but only the a certain extent. What you have to remember is that money can't give you true love, a family through that love, ect.

    That is all.

    Most people believe - or act as if - happiness is achieved through financial freedom. The perception of freedom will always increase happiness, but mere money won't.

    The knowledge and security you gain from knowing that you can create the life you choose... that you are in complete control of your life... that wherever you are you can guide yourself to where you want to be... is the beginning to mastering life.

    There are many forms of happiness. The form that comes from money is great, and the form that comes from family and friends is great as well. If you have both, then your just damn lucky.

    I come from a very well off set of parents, that grew up in poverty. They've given me all they can to make sure I'm happy. However, it brings them sorrow. They fight to keep the great house they've built. My mom is a doctor, but she's finding her group losing money from a new building and less patients. My dad quit his old job 100k+ a year to settle down with his own shop, but he's just now breaking even on a monthly basis after 2 years. So still has made no real profit, and my mom had to struggle to pay for his shop as it wasn't making anything.

    It's hard to know this, but I am happy. I appreciate what my parents have done. Even if I don't always show it. I know things will work out and be alright.

    I'm just saying that money can bring happiness, but it has it's ends too.
