I Don't think that money can by you happiness. Its all about how you look at happiness though. If you think that happiness is getting all the material substance that you want then yes it can buy you Happiness but if you look at it from a different point of view isn't happiness just the knowledge the you have that someone out there loves you or admires you.

I dont think it can buy complete happiness - just temporary. But a friend of mine thinks it can.

Sometimes Yes, sometimes NO. Money can buy cellphones which you can enjoy especially when you have a textmate.Money cannot buy happiness sometimes bcuz only people makes it.

I personally think people who think money can buy happiness don't have much depth. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but those people are very materialistic and I'm sure money brings happiness to everyone every now and then, but only temporarily and it's not the happiness friends, a good job and a loving family bring.

No, as you may be happy playing all your new stuff but you'll get tired of it, and be sad from being bored.

Money can buy comfort, which in turn can provide happiness. So in a way I would say yes. Having enough money can provide happiness.

I agree it's like this even if your happy just hanging out you still need money to buy gas otherwise your never going to be able to get anywhere. You want a successful job your going to need money to get into college no matter what you do in life you need money to get where you want to be so in fact yes money buys happiness otherwise you end out on the streets living like a bum

Exactly, but I'm willing to let their ignorance slide because I assume they are still children.

Money is really useless without other people.In other words, people to share it with, show it off to, etc. The satisfaction with yourself is only temporary, but lasts a whole lot longer with the people around you.

Having nothing but money, no. But if you have other things in life and you are already happy... then money only seems to augment it.I guess that didn't actually answer the question....
