Does Money Buy Happiness?

when we want your opinion, we will ask you to fill out the necessary application.

anyway lynsey, listen to yourself. you can not go a single post without bringing up something about you or something that has happened in your life. can one get any more self centered? and quit harping on mcdonalds you conceited peice of lipo suction trash. a job is job and it is money. i guess in stead of having a job people should sit home and do nothing. you make me so sick to my stomach.

 

very cool!!!!!!!!! good for you. I love how college is free ocer there. my family over there wants me to move and live int he lake house and go to school for sociology at some all womens college they have over there.

mmmm cafe so you get free lattees and such...very sweet set up.

I finish my BA next month and start my masters in counseling psychology with an epmhasisi in abnormal child behavior when I want to (supossed to start injune) I am taking pre recs at state this summer instead as it's cheaper and a nicer school.
The BA I will be getting next month is liberal arts/education wtih an ind epth special field emphasis in psychology (kind of like a minor but will say it on my major degree and ill get the minor degree)

 

a job is a job...they're even better when you can keep them for longer than a month or two...like I sadi she started it and now your fighting her battles for her-unless you are an alias for her, which I don't doubt. you guys ganging up on me is freaking pathetic. Madcrappie already closed the other thread and he'll seriously ban you if you are an alias and double posting in this thread...


and I know all about her from everyone she's slept with on here and given std's to, not known she was married ect so I don't need to hear about trash

 

yikes. well, this interesting concept thread went straight to shit.

 

I disagree.

I also enjoy car crashes races...

 

and by the way I was the most supportive person on here in public when she got that job. A job is a job I admired her for doing that to get her family outta financial trouble but she no longer has that job nor does she have any of her other million jobs shes been through this year.
she also claims to be bankrupts all the time yet is constantly spending her husbands money which I have little respect for, yet criticizes me for how much I spend of my own money, which I earn and affects no one but my self. I may spend a lot but I also have a 401k, 403b, roth ira and am saving for a condo adn pay rent to my motherm whos house I live in so she made her bed and constantly wants to sleep in somone elses (no pun intended) and not lay in it. she created her situation and I created mine. I had some very very unbelievabley bad shit happen to me. I had a panic attack when I woke up from anethesia because I felt the same way i did after I woke up from my father raping me. My grandpa had to come down and take me to get things I needed because I was too histarical for my mother, she was ready to commit me before I came down fromt he medication. so this is really the last thing i need today. everyone has bad shit in their life we get over it we change it we move on and make sure we make our life good.
we don't bitch about ours 24/7 and not change the ssituation we are in. we don't stay in marragies for mentary resons and for conviencice and use people, we don't keep jobs for a month at a time and we certainly don't try to bring others down who are trying to get their life in order. the cruuelty on this forum really makes me realize why many of you have very little outside interests and friends or can't hold jobs or get into uni...no one likes spite. I got smell hatefulness on people and don't hire them. my life is good, i am good, i work hard to look good, i work hard at school, i work hard at all my jobs, i work hard to maker others happy, i work hard volunteering and I have a lot to be proud of. I don't need to be told i am cragging if I stated every little things that happened to me on here you guys would think iw as a liar.
i come on here to talk to chris and kayleigh and a few others and because it clearts my overactive mind not to hear immature and empty people who use their husbands bitch and tear me down.
and I have worked my fair share of shit jobs but i stick them out for years and thats why i am where i am now. no shame in working for minimum wage ive been there but quiters i have little respect for.

 

don't worry about it. the truest experience we have to draw on is our own, and we're here to express ourselves. that doesn't mean that we don't read what other people say, but when we read about other people's positions or situations we're reminded of a similar situation in our own lives. we're all self centered in our way. i mean, fuck, we should be. including your own mortal enemies. don't sweat it. you're you, they're them. i like you all. after all, MY opinion matters the most (to me) anyway.

 

*snicker* i never was good with forms. so i'll just hand them out anyway, since they're flying so freely...

 

ypur opinion matters a lot to me. I really respect you you're a wonderful mother and wife and I envy you at times but in a nice way. The maternalness inme comes out on the vicodien arghhhhh I wonder if anyone needs a free babysitter in the area...i really miss babies a lot

 

i probably wouldn't want someone on vicadin watching my kids, though. ya may wanna get a clearer head first.

 

of course silly!!!!! I wouldn't have time anyway I just remember my cousin she was a cute little readhead and I love her and miss her sooo much.

 

lol. though, i dunno. the way these kids yell sometimes, it may be a good idea to be slightly sedated. THEY'RE having a blast, but me ears...it makes the neighbor's dogs howl like they hear an ambulance.

 

lol do you live next store to us. our hounds their kids are fence playmates. i made my mom sedate the dogs today because their howling and the kids screaming was hurting me like nothing else

 

we play a lot. i think i'm getting better at enduring the piercing shrieks of joy. used to make my ears bleed. now i'm half deaf and loving it.

 

you're a good mommy

 

Yaaay, that warmed my heart a little






as to the original question
yes

Not for everyone, not always, not in every situation. But I think if I were stinking rich I could use that money to make myself happy. Financial stress is something I've been dealign wtih for years now, it bogs down everything else, magnifies every other stress in my life. If I were stinking rich, yeah, I'd spend a lot of it on happiness - thankfully I get a lot of my happiness from helping others, from buying others stuff, from charity/volunteer work and from feeding people, so it's not like I'd be spending millions just on myself in an attempt to be happy

you just gotta know how to use it right, to create value form the dollars

 

yah know I was in the same psotion after I broke off my engaement and I had to work full-time and go to school 3/4 time because I just found that being depressed about not having a nice car anymore, clothes ect and worrying about bills all of a sudden really stressed me out. I had to move back home even. I didn't love him and wanted to work to begin with he just owned half of a buisness and was super busy and since we were getting married I was fine with being a stay at home wife. I used to want to be a stay at home mom and professional student lol.

but yeah when that was over he offered me monetary support until I finsished school (we were still dating) but of course morally I could not take it so god what did I do I think i worked as a receptionsist for him for a few months...adn was paid really well lol and then got a job at nordies worked there for awhile got a promotion then got fired and then worked as a special ed teachers aide, which changed my life forever.
some people are meant to go part time and one of those peoiple was for sure me. even when I was a stay at home fiance and didn't work i still went to school just part time. i started college at 16 though so i was burnt.

maybe ya just wanna think about that. i do so much better with thwo or three classsses than I do with 6.

 

I just hate financial stress. i am good at cutting back when I have to but it=f I dont have enough to cover my bills and basics I fail my classes...its a proven trend. this was when my mom and i did not get along as well and mt grandpa was mad at me for being in a relationship so i got no help from family

 

you'd be suprised at how many activities are more self-centered than talking about yourself on the internet.

Personally, i steal little kids lunch money and spend it on veal.

 

*HUGS* you are too funny and a great writter...good combo
