    Does money buy happiness?
    Are different versions of the same theme going to be rehashed and re-offered?

    Lets just turn the question around.
    Does happiness make money?
    Well, hell, happiness probably does have a bias towards helping you make money.
    How many miserable depressed f**ks make a fortune.
    Very few or none probably.

    Does money buy happiness?

    No, but it will certainly shut my wife up and in the flavour there coming I may even be able to buy a second (and earn enough to keep her nagging at bay also!

    I would love to test this perplexing theory....

    If I can gain a 1000 pips a week for the next 6 months, I will seek professional help to gauge my hapiness level.....

    Does money make you happy? sure it does. Is money the only thing that can make you happy? No, Im sure we can all agree on that. There are plenty of "other things" that make you happy.

    IMO, people would be more happy doing "other things" then making money:)

    Happy trading to all

  8. Yes it does. However, happiness is fleeting. It will not buy contentment. In fact, money will erode it. Knowing this will not prevent me from pursueing it though. Still much to learn in this life and at 54 it's getting a little late in the game for guessing.:confused:
