A new study has come out finding that, contrary to the popular saying, money can effectively buy happiness. However, the price of each individual unit is fairly high. Luckily, there are alternatives. - A good love life can be worth well over $100,000 as compared to a bad one
- Similarly, having sex once a week as compared ot once a month is worth nearly $50,000.
- Also found was that those who must pay for sex are generally the most unhappy of all
- Are rich prostitutes/strippers the happiest people alive?
I'll need to check around to find a link to the article, since it was just in a local paper.

If you didn't know that money can buy happiness, you're likely a tad slooow. Not to say that you're unhappy if you're not well off. I'm pretty happy.

Money can buy happiness.
Despite what we'd all like to think and what ideals would have us believe, that's true.
Wouldn't say that you could buy feelings(it would depend on the person) but you could definitly buy, say, obedience, or actions.
I mean hell, look at my sig.

So that means that if I had sex every week instead of these spurts of 2 months or more, I could say that I was making at least 50,000 dollars because I'd be happy about the sex?

No, but you'd be as happy as if you were making that $50,000 and not having any sex.

Aries is pretty happy and he had his college finances just ravaged by his mother.
Granted, nowadays, Aries is starting to worry himself potentially into ulcers, but he's still pretty happy.
Money buys security, in Aries's idea. Security creates that brand of happiness.
