Money to be able to help others, money to give flexibility to spend more time with people I care about, money to let my children have stuffs and do things I never did as a child. So not really money but rather a way to help others, have more free time and provide for your kids. I'd say you get much more credit then the guy wanting money to show off that he's got money. I still haven't figured out what that guy's ulterior motives are although I'm sure they mostly revolve around a larger then normal want to be the center of attention. In any case, OP most people don't have one thing that makes them happy. I went through a phase where I enjoyed soccer but I didn't realize it until later. I enjoyed university but wasn't thinking "I'm happy in the moment". Making others happy and taking good care of your fellow humans always works across all cultures.

Money. If Icould stop working while maintaining my current lifestyle Id be much happier. Spending more time with my wife and doing what we want together rather than what we need to separately most days of the week. That would make me a happier guy for sure.

I used to think the same thing. Now that I make a lot of money I find it just creates more stress and expectation to continue to make a lot of money. Mo money mo problems. That being said, helping others and enjoying stuff with my family makes me happy, so there's both sides. Not having any money would definitely make things harder to enjoy.

Bruce Boudreau Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Being healthy. Knowing you matter. Having a purpose. Having enough money to do what you want to do to be happy. Having meaningful relationships with people who genuinely love and care for your well being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortorella's Rant Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Financial security, financial freedom. Within reason, of course.. I'm not a professional athlete or celebrity. The idea of being broke like some people terrifies the $&!# out of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonshinefe Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Just relaxing with a beer with no pending things weighing on my mind, watching comedies, chatting with friends, occasionally gaming. Being around animals and nature. I'd rather play around with a happy dog or cat than chat with a bunch of humans sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm lucky enough to have a pretty cushy job, but have a close friend who's been jobless for a while now. No savings, constantly stressed about how he'll pay rent, the depression of failure. It's not a pretty sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Like @Monty said, it's about family. Having my kids around (they've all moved out on their own) makes me happier than anything else. A good single malt, paired with a amber/brown ale is up there as well, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I identify with guys like Hank and Adam Oates, more than Ovie, or Hull. And there are a lot worse choices than Lucky Lager. Coors Light comes to mind right away. (If the guys are going for the "bang for your buck" beer, I recommend Old Style Pilsner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When my first was born and I got to hold her, I took her to the window and showed her the world. (Yes, I know a newborn can't see clearly) It was at that point I knew I would do anything for her and I told her so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
