When people tell me 'money doesn't buy happiness', I tell them 'it removes a lot of anxiety'.
These people don't have any anxiety anymore, and believe they can do anything. Most of the time they're right.
Money doesn't buy happiness, it's merely a pre-requisite for health, safety, freedom of movement, education, and social standing.
health, safety, freedom of movement, education, and social standing
Which all contribute severely to your happiness.
Money can't buy happiness, this is true, but it sure buys a shitton of opportunities to feel happy....
Plus a bunch of stuff that was illegal when you were poor suddenly becomes perfectly legal if you're rich enough to pay the associated fees.
I mean, sure the police call them "fines"...but still.
Once your basic needs are met money can't really make you that much happier. They did a study on a bunch of people and they found that once you have all the needs met you can't buy happiness
Which means that until all your needs are met money actually does buy happiness.
