Some people say money doesn't bring you happiness. But then others say that it's more comfortable to cry in a Mercedes than on a bicycle.

So, do you need money to be happy? If yes, how much?

Certain fields of happiness, yes. But not fully.

Think of it this way: would you rather live with the love of your life and be happy with them while being fine financially, or be alone and have no friends/family/significant other and be a billionaire? I choose the first option.

My family has money and I still feel more fulfilled when I'm surrounded by people/friends/guys I love. Although that's not to say shopping sprees don't make me happy

People who say money doesn't buy happiness obviously don't know where to shop.

Money sure buys mine

Nope.

Of course you do. A bit at least.

Yes.

Money & Love

A little, but materialistic things don't make you happy

Money would make everything easier, and when things are easier, I am happy, so yes.

I mean being poor doesn't make you happier so it's better to be rich........

Yes, among other things that money can't buy.

MTE.

Yes, but if it's too much money then you're just gonna get worried of losing it all, so I'll say being upper middle class or lower upper class is the best thing.

This.

no. you can be happy in any situation if you choose to be

Yes, because if you have no money you are for sure unhappy, I mean, you can't afford health care, a roof above your head, food, clothes, doing something fun once in a while. People who say money can't buy you happiness are lying. You need at least enough money to get by

I guess you're right. I was thinking of a counterargument, but then I realized at the end of the day you can just be happy to be alive.
