People like to say that money can't make you happy.
It can, and I have just the proof you need:
Do you like going to work everyday from 9 to 5? I mean, really really like it?
If you had the option of having enough money to where you never had to do this, would you?
If you had enough money to never have to worry about bills, to have a decent house (doesn't have to be a million dollar home, just an avg family house), to know that you'll never have to be concerned about your financial status, would you like that? Wasting 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year (minus holidays) of your life is quite a bit. Wouldn't you like to have it back and reclaim what's yours?
I love my job. However, if I suddenly got my hands on $10 million, I'd quit in a heartbeat. I'd buy a nice $300k home, pay it off, and just enjoy the rest of my life.
Money can't buy you other happiness related things, like a woman who loves you, or health, but it most certainly relieves a lot of stress that's on pretty much everyone else's shoulders.
