It’s always good to remember, thanks for the reminder.
the world would be a better place if we didn’t need the reminder but knew those truths intrinsically… that’s unfortunately not the case, and it is good to be reminded. Thanks.
Good list Chris, but I think you should mention one thing that money CAN buy… WOMEN!!!
Btw, that was a joke. Hope I don’t get any hate mail for that one…
Money money, it is the rat race and it is great to think of the none money things. I remember a great study that linked money and happiness up to 30,000, but over that amount it was an inverse relationship, the more money more problems. Was that socrates?
What about: Money can buy whore, but not love.
Hi Chris,
Nice list…

Dino’s comment should be the 11th :-D
I sure agree - persuing money can be a drain.
Thank you. It is old true and I am lucky that I dont have to buy the whore…
[...] Don’t be a Pretender any longer! Money can’t buy you happiness! [...]
THOSE WHO SAY MONEY CAN’T BUY HAPPINESS JUST DON’T KNOW WHERE TO SHOP =]
money can not buy happiness =D>
Money buys shelter (over head and on body) and food - without that, there is very little foundation for basic stability, and often a path towards unhappiness. So a little money (or support) helps to attain a calm mind and some foundation for happiness.
That of course is true as well.
quote from someone at slashdot.org :
“Money can’t buy happiness, but somehow it’s more comfortable crying in a Porsche than a Hyundai.”
money can you food, but not family meal.
