To be honest, I've never needed much and don't need much to be "happy." Then again, I've never been overly materialistic or into conspicuous consumption.

My girlfriend and I have had this running joke/understanding that if she ever won the lottery, all I would need to be happy is a million and she would keep the rest and do whatever she wanted with it. Just last week, however, she added a clause:

"Fine. You can have your one million. Just don't come running back to me for more once you've donated and given it all away!"

HAHAHAHA! LOL

Peace! :)

Agree with the $75000 threshold. Once rent/mortgage, food, and healthcare is paid for, and not a cause of constant stress (ie wealthy enough that losing these things is not likely), more money provides diminishing returns in terms of happiness.

Yeah, we don't have healthcare concerns here in Canada, so most don't really worry about it.

And depending on where I eventually end up, it would be nice for healthcare to never ever be of real concern.

I don't need money to be happy but when I see my paycheck, which I work hard for, robbed by Obama and this gov't it makes me sick.

Nice job saying taxes only go up for the "rich". I guess everyone is rich now because if you work, your taxes went up.

Fucking piece of shit. :fingerc:
