also, i think i only agree with schwallie if i'd hae to give something up for money. ie ...if i wanted to have a wife/family... no wife/family for money

but as is, we're all 18-25 year olds who aren't giving anything up for making money. not mothers of 4 who could be making 60k at a 9-5

It will still be #1 cause even tho i'll sometimes take it for granted, i'd much rather have money (assuming i'm normal aka good health and other things) over anything else. I've been poor before (even though my parents weren't), I mean in high school at one point I had 20 bucks to my name. It made me appreciate money a lot more, then say if I was never poor.

I do agree that not having money makes u more miserable than money does make u happy, but having 5+ mil will still make me happy.

Obv like I said, money isn't the end all, but it is imo the most important factor. Obv you can be happy without money, and not happy with money (this is 2 different people, obv if you give the same person no money or money, they will be happier with money), but I guarentee you more people without money are in general a good amount more miserable than ones who have money.

Obviously it makes you happier, it is just..

**** I'm not saying it again, just actually read my posts, I'm not saying anything extraordinary, money makes you more happy but will not solve your other problems, pretty simple and straightforward.

But I did obviously argue Kels dumb points of 99% of people think money is #2, when you ask basically any happy man with a wife/kids and they will mention family or friends so much quicker because they have actually grown up and realized what is important in life. It is hard to argue a family perspective with a bunch of people who are 19, or act like they are 19.

eh I kinda assumed that when I said normal it meant having a wife/family (although I personally don't want kids unless i'm rich, although I do want a wife)

Still i'd rather have money and no family than have a family and be poor

As I said on AIM to you, people take things forgranted. I guarentee that under 50% of people will list health as the #1 factor towards happiness, when there is no doubt that health is THE MOST IMPORTANT and it's not even close. Money is much closer to the other things that are important to people, such as family, a good job, etc., and since people take things forgranted, people will say that "money isn't everything" but if they're living on the street with "family", i guarentee the answer will be different.

And as I said, there are MANY things that contribute to happiness, and people have different happiness levels as well, so saying "look he has money family and he's not happy" has to do with his happiness level (for lack of a better term) than the fact that money doesn't make him happy.

this

Yes, but you are speaking for a very low % of people with that. People don't live on the street all the time. You aren't using real world people. Nearly everyone is not homeless, everyone is middle class.

There aren't many homeless guys with family looking after/loving them really.

Ok not even living on the street, but being poor living paycheck to paycheck and struggling to pay the bills/in debt.

I'd rather have money and no family, than family and have that.

as of now i don't want a family, but if at some point i did, i would choose a family and live paycheck to paycheck

but right now i hate kids so yeah **** it gimme the money

Yea, wasn't trying to really argue anything, just Kels spewing off that 99% of people will put money #2 when 95% of people are middle class with little to no money and will like 90% of the time will put family made me have to argue that point that he is putting too much into worrying about money, but basically he told me he was saying if you put people in homeless situations they will realize how important money is, which I can agree with.

HOLY **** OMG OMG OMG OMG THERE ARE 13 PEOPLE VIEWING THIS FORUM RIGHT NOW....THIS MUST BE A RECORD

Ok phewwwwww only 2 people are viewing it now (including myself ldo)....I was worried that this forum was somewhat active or something

there are 4 visitors right now in this forum: http://www.bocceitaliaforum.net/

compared to the 1 here right now (me)

and it's 530am in Italy

There was just something on Oprah (yes Oprah, I am married ) that showed what would happen if you gave a homeless guy 100g. Know what he did? He bought a guy from the recycling center a car, moved back home and blew it all on his "friends". I think the older you get the more you care about family than money.

Actually I'm pretty sure he did that because he's ******ed (which is most likely why he's homeless in the first place), and thought that 100k was a lot more than it actually was. When people never have money, they don't know how to handle money when they get a lot of it and just spend it without caring...which is why you hear about so many people winning the lottery who are broke 10 years later.

he seemed like he was in his right mind. Not the smartest guy in the world but you could tell he just wanted to be liked

I'm pretty sure anyone who's homeless and buys his friend a car among other things when he's given such a limited supply of money isn't in his right mind...especially when I'm sure his friend liked him before that anyway

your right......as usual

qft

lol when i read kelis post i thought it was about me and was so confused
