There is a popular opinion in the locale that "A man who has money doesn't easily get angry or offended, lol". This statement goes the other way as well, that "A man who doesn't have money is easily offended by everything and everyone".

I don't think it's fair to expect such behavior from everyone because I've seen so many rich people who are mildly offended.  They think he can do whatever he wants and he doesn't care what others think.  Again, I have seen people who have but they get along very well with everyone.


What is your opinion on the subject of "money & happiness"?


Honestly, it doesn't really matter how much money I have, it just depends on whether I can spend as much as I need.  This need can be your own or someone you love.  Just like if my younger brother asks me for money and I can't pay, then I feel bad if I can pay I feel good.  When I can help a poor person with money, I feel satisfied with my work even though I have not benefited from this expenditure.  I don't think happiness depends on how much money I am earning or how much money I have.  Happiness is found in how much money I can help myself, my family, and the helpless people around me.  It can be done with much less money.
