Do you think money can buy happiness?

I was having this conversation last week with a friend. What are your thoughts?

I don't think it buys happiness, just comfort. It would be nice to wake up everyday and know the bills are paid.

Nope,money wouldn't make me happy, I live on a pretty tight budget,but when the bills are paid and groceries bought I usually have enough left to do something fun with so I am happy with that

I think when you are born in a wealthy family, money cannot buy you happiness.
When you have emotional issues prior to coming in to a lot of money then money cannot buy you happiness.
But when you are emotionally stable and come into a lot of money, I think with some people money can buy you some happiness. As long as you invest it wisely.

I would love the chance to see if it does

I don't think money can buy happiness but I think if you have money you can be happy knowing the bills are paid and you just don't have to worry about money.
That would make me happy.
There isn't a store where you go and buy a bag of happy but just imagine never worrying about money again.
You could help the people you care about and that would certainly make you feel happy.
Travel and see the world...more happy.
I'm thinking money can do a lot in a person's life to give them plenty of reasons to be happy.

i'd be happier not living in debt!

I may be internet, car, and television free in about a month.....guess I'll find out the hard way.

I'm glad you are laughing fleas but I really do hear you.
I borrowed 60.00 from my paycheck tomorrow last week.
I owe my friend 95.00 for a trip I thought I could go on.
Lost 500.00 on that stupid idea.

Just gotta keep laughing even when it isn't funny.
My motto... Just keep swimming.

I swear this has gotten me through so much and the irony...I'm scared of water and I can't swim but this makes me feel better.

I was thinking the same thing when I was discussing this topic with a co-worker.
