What's the point of being rich if your not around the people you love?

What's the point of money if you're not happy?

What's the point of having money if you can't share it with people?

Just some thoughts I was having today after reading the article about the Swedish billionaire who is depressed. We think money makes you happy but it doesn't. People, love and living life makes you happy not money or material things.

Just something to think about.

Do you guys feel the key to your happiness is money?

No such thing as a life that's better than yours :mjcry:

No one thing makes you happy. A combination of things make you happy. And aint nothing wrong with money. Why are black people taught this? :jbhmm:

Never said anything was wrong with money. I said what's the point of it you don't have happiness.

Lol no just no
Lol, I feel sorry for people following Satan's way to attain success and happiness thinking that that it's the Truth. Righteousness (Islam) leads to true happiness, trust me... and All success is from the One True God, Allah. I say this for y'all's benefit of course.

Happy? Not necessarily.

But it makes life a lot easier. I'm a sr. software engineer, my wife is a recruiting manager at a prestigious institution. We track our financials in YNAB but beyond that we don't really *think* about money, in the sense that we aren't really worried about not having it (right now....in this economy anything could change). We have over a year salary saved in liquid accounts and more than that in retirement/investment accounts. "Financial freedom" can make you happy in a sense because it's a burden lifted off your shoulders and allows you to enjoy life more. {1}
Right now we are saving over $5k a month (not including retirement which are maxed out to the federal limits) because we want to enjoy a similar quality of life when we get old.We are just saving it being safe (I think the market is set for a reset soon and we already have investments etc) but I hope to diversify into real estate



1. The Perfect Salary for Happiness: $75,000
