It can't, you are probably just too poor to realize it though.

>>15915942

This reminds me of some song by Drake about how he can never find true love because everyone he meets is a gold digger. My girlfriend expressed that she felt genuine pity for Drake because of this. Apparently Drake is so good looking and his voice is so good and he has so much money that apparently women will feel whichever emotion he tells them to feel, exactly when he tells them to feel it. This forced me to confront Drake's total victory over me, who he doesn't even know, and my complete and total inadaquacy because he's set for life with fuck you money, and he tells my girlfriend to feel sorry for him because he's so rich and she does it because he so attractive. So, to answer, money and looks means total victory over all other men, including countless men you've never even met.

Just remember that despite all of his success Drake will never be white.

Cuck

Yeah you're right. I'm too poor and ugly to do anything about it though. You might be surprised how your girlfriend feels about Drake...

>"Money can't buy you happiness"

So. Much. This.

I made a TON of money in the last bullrun from $ETH and $NANO, but I didn't feel complete until I met my better half. Nothing compares to the feeling I get coming home from work and seeing my wife and her son.

>>15915942
that's true after a certain point, but that doesn't mean being poor is better in any way than being rich. it's mostly poorfag cope for not trying

> and her son
...

>>15916193
...yes?

>>15916239
>her son
>not "my son"

>>15915942
Then why did I get so happy when 30k dropped on my lap.

>>15915942
Happiness is a momentary absense from pain. It collapses to boredom/ennui the next moment.

Money can remove some pains.

>>15915942
cant buy me looooooveeeee, loooooveeee

It has to be better than living paycheck to paycheck and still having in the back of your mind that maybe even that paycheck won't come through when you lose your shitty job.

It may not buy happiness but a sense of financial security is nice.

>>15915942
It doesn't. You have a happiness set point. Good or bad things happen and it's a temporary change.

Hedonistic treadmills, change your set point and you can change your life.

>>15915942
it actually can

>>15916703
Having money when you have no money will make you happy. Having more money when you already have money will not make you happier.

>>15915942
This wojak always reminds me of my brother in law. Looks just like him along with being icredible financially irresponsible

>>15916733
The hedonic treadmill is asymmetric. Bad things can happen to you that permanently lower it (set point), but there's nothing good enough that will permanently raise it.

AKA Life is shit.

>>15916769
That is true. I was saying having enough money to the point where you know you aren't going to be on the corner with a schizo homeless veteran potentially within a week brings a nice sense of security.

i understand lifestyle inflation, but firearms and home improvement are so extremely gratifying for me that i cant imagine this.

>>15915942
Money can’t buy me happiness because money IS my happiness.

That is why millenials aren't buying houses.

>>15915942
Money buys peace of mind, not happiness. Otherwise, Robin Williams would still be alive.

yes, it is her child from a previous life partner and i stepped up to the plate and did the brave thing by raising him.
