Money Buys Happiness?

Big Jim's Random ThoughtsThe age old question, does money buy happiness? One of my friends seem to think so, and I can’t say I disagree but I’ll approach it with a different angle!

I was messing around with my Friendster one night (thanks to Jen!) and was actually having fun doing it. I’ve been a bad card-carrying member of Friendster since September 2003 but have not actually linked anybody as my friend. But I was really waiting for everyone to join in to make my search easier (that’s my story and I’m sticking to it).

I came across an old acquaintance from my University days. James is a big fella who is in my opinion, extremely smart. If you’ve ever heard him speak or talk to him, you can tell that he has a unique perspective apart from other people. Jame’s blog, Random Thoughts, has a post about his thoughts on money and happiness. It is an interesting read, and “Big Jim’s” personality certainly shines through too!

My perspective, I don’t think “Money makes happiness”. There are many people with money that are not happy. Instead, I submit that “Lack of money makes you sad”. No matter what your dream of a lifestyle is, if you do not have the funds to make it a reality, you will not be happy. Do you agree?
