Money isnt everything, but Yes,Yes and Yes again haha!
by Sweet T on November 7th, 2008
I know it would be, LOL.
by I am the God of Hellfire on November 3rd, 2008
Yes it would free me up to do more for the world around me.(and get me that horse ranch I'm pining for)
by technios on November 1st, 2008
make money??? you mean interest??? Sure If I made money I could make as much as I wanted! It would be harder If I earned more though because there would obviously be more work in involved
by happiness on October 29th, 2008
Easier and happier and I'll be more generous.
by Account Closed on October 28th, 2008
No have plenty of money and my life could not be easier.
by Needs some coffee on October 28th, 2008
Easier, no. As you make more you end up spending more, so it all evens out in the end. Would it be nice to make more, yes.
by Langenschwert on March 19th, 2009
Well, it depends on how MUCH more money. I don't think an extra $50 a month would make anything much easier. Adding $100,000 a year to my paycheque would probably make some things easier. :)
by Carlos Lehder on January 25th, 2009
aaaaaaaaaahh yeh!!!
by Mystical Dim on October 29th, 2008
yes..right now definitely..i would have money be able to get a car and stop going on the bus and wasting hours that i actually need..i wouldn't have any negatives on the account and i would be able to get gifts for people without having to really worry about $$$..it sucks
by Teri on October 29th, 2008
Yes and I am not talking rich...just comfortable...
by R U Sirius on October 28th, 2008
absolutely. Money shouldnt be the sole reason for happiness but definitely makes life easier. Knowing that you can provide for your family is one of the greatest attributes a man can feel good about himself. (and a woman)
by dead leaves raked in a pile on October 28th, 2008
It's possible,.
OTOH, just like work expands to fill the time available, bills expand to fill the cash available
and then some
by Possum on October 28th, 2008
I've made more money, and yes, my life was easier?
by AlexanderTheGreat on October 28th, 2008
Money doesnt matter, as it is the root off all evil, but yes i would be EASIER but not ' better '.
by fins.up on October 28th, 2008
No, more money doesn't make it easier. having supportive family and friends makes life easier.
by CamiK0505 on October 28th, 2008
More money, more problems. Life is what you make of it, not how much money you make.
by Impatient Ninja on October 28th, 2008
I agree with "Needs some coffee". I used to make bare minimum to do dirty jobs... now I make 6 figures now. However, it didn't make things easier.
For example: Sure I have a nicer car now (no longer driving the hooptie Ford Festiva) but you know what? It was better on gas, and it was paid off... insurance was lower and I got less tickets.
I had to move to a nicer area to get this job, cost me 5K to move, and I've been paying 2k a month in rent a month. I'm still driving 30 miles to work a day, and I work so much I don't have time to do anything else.
My taxes cut my paycheck in half, and I end up with like $200 a paycheck to get gas and food.
So, yeah money gets you a bit more... but how much? Is it worth your free time? or how about having a life? I mean who will remember I was a great worker? I've lost countless friends from becoming a work-a-holic...
Not worth it IMO.
by Bohemian is back on October 28th, 2008
Well, it could be. But it could also make my life more complicated especially in this financial climate. I'd be worried about where to keep it the whole time.
by NeverWas on October 28th, 2008
Sure it would. I could still pay bills and afford to treat my lady friend more often, making my life easier, and maybe I could even save enough to do something fun once in a while.
by anonymous on October 28th, 2008
It couldn't hurt.
by j ninja... on October 28th, 2008
Oh hell ya, then I wouldn't have to have a full time job and 2 part times.. Damn bills :(
by BethRiot on October 28th, 2008
Yeah, I guess.
by Vampyre Bat on October 28th, 2008
In some ways yes. But money does not solve every problem and even creates its own also.
by diana on October 28th, 2008
not easier, but way more fun!
by Elfie on October 28th, 2008
Hell yes. Money may not buy happiness but it pays for the things that do. Money issues are one of the top things couples fight about.
If I made more money I wouldn't be forced to move out of my current apartment and back into my parents' house cause my company cut my pay by $10k a year. >.<
by D.E. Harris on October 28th, 2008
I'm poor and it still seems pretty easy. It's the money that I'm worry about. Every time they give it to me I have to dig a hole and bury it.
by CaRbOnPrOdUcK is Baccuss on October 28th, 2008
Does a fish swim? LOL, Yes it would be alot easier. ;]
by CT on October 28th, 2008
No not easier!!
by leeks5229 on October 28th, 2008
With more money, life for me as well as for members of my family would be easier for the following reasons:
(1) We can have our very own dwelling places so we would not have to keep on moving after each tenancy agreement.
(2) We would not have to be concerned with the timely payment of all our bills as well as our hire purchases and loans.
(3) We would have the means to pay for insurance premiums like life, personal accidents, medical, etc
(4) Money would be available to support our children for education up to tertiary level.
(5) Money would be available for traveling to see the world, etc.
(6) Money would be available for any contingencies to meet the urgent needs of the moment.
I need to remember that money is not everything. Our spiritual, emotional, social and other non-monetary needs cannot be met with money alone.
by lippy1 on October 28th, 2008
i KNOW my life would be easier if i made more money!
by Jack wears love COAT on October 28th, 2008
No. Money is not whole life. I would be more than happy if I get just enough money and more of other values in life like love, happiness, health...Yeah, health is wealth... and friends, neighbours, good family, and all good things....
Master card says!!-"There are somethings in life that money can't buy...."!!
by Mephistopheles on October 28th, 2008
Yes. I would take care of about 95% of my problems. Sad, ain't it?
by Blackberry. on October 28th, 2008
Of course, not many people want to be rich realistically, but just enough to not have to worry about paying bills on time or having money for an emergency if one comes up.
by laaayla on August 11th, 2009
Right now I don't have a job. And there isn't one in the foreseeable future. It would be nice just to have some money much less...more money.
by ThisAnonymous1 on March 11th, 2009
Nope. I would just spend more.
by Dog Chaser on January 20th, 2009
The great thing about being poor is that you still believe that money can make you happy.
by Leeses Pieces is COATed in chocolate on January 16th, 2009
Yes - but I am not sure I would be as hard-working as I am today, if I had money all along.
by librarylover321 on January 14th, 2009
yes. I don't think it would be perfect, but it sure would be alot easier if I had less debt, and more moeny to spend.
by shammers still slogging along on December 1st, 2008
Duh! Yes.
by Salty Light on November 26th, 2008
no, because money doesn't change who I am, or who anyone is...it is just a distraction and also a tool. I would still have heartache over my hurting loved ones, and the ppl would still be rude on the highways, and so on....I have little money and a wonderful life.
by MagicSquares on November 13th, 2008
Although money doesn't solve all your problems, and probably creates additional ones, I still think that it would let you focus on what's important rather than constantly trying to find way to pay your bills and plan for your retirement.
by Galeanda on November 7th, 2008
Just a little more right now. But not much.
by barney loves his colts on November 7th, 2008
definately easier! probably not better though.
by timthearchitect on November 1st, 2008
if you look at money like air, if one has plenty of air they don't give it a second thought, But if you are deprived of air, you will think of it all the time.
by hugs on October 31st, 2008
It would be easier if I had less debt.
by Tempter on October 31st, 2008
It would solve a few problems.
by LoggyBren on October 31st, 2008
No explanations or rationalizations -- my answer is yes.
by AIRBALL on October 31st, 2008
quite the opposite
i think with the lakeonic life i life its as simple as it gets
i am not saying i dont whant to make money just saying it also comes with a lot of resposibiltys..
by CaptainHarley adores his life penguin on October 29th, 2008
Not really. It might be a bit more fun, but I'm already just about as happy as a man can be and still be human. : ))
