>what is the key to happiness?
in all honesty, not buying a gaming rig. making a serious money/space investment into what is effectively a chair to rot in, definitely makes you more likely to spend time rotting in a chair.

Happiness doesn't come from other people, material goods or even experiences. It simply comes from being content (but not complacent) with yourself and with life.

nice congrats OP
as for the happiness part: start meditating, do ayahuasca and start a family. use your money for something good and make as many white children as you can.

>Anon, what is the key to happiness?
The key to happiness is understanding that happiness is a meme. Happiness is an illusion, which is used by the elites of this world to keep us all chasing shadows within ourselves. There are moments of happiness, moments of sorrows... but in the end, one must know that peace comes from balance. in death, one shall inherit eternal peace. Until then, we walk on the rope of life, trying to control, our own primitive hunger.

Killing shit. Start hunting. Work your way up through the animals and when you get bored with that, email me for the ultimate big game. I have a spot in se Asia where you can hunt indentured servants on a private island for $250k

>>7259961
>make as many white children as you can
why would one who sees the futility of this world want to make children? also, why the focus on "white" children? that kind of prejudice is one of the layers of division which cause suffering to befall on the people of this world. a wise man would not bring children into this reality of illusions and mockery.

>doesn't know money can't buy happiness

Money is like a platform upon which happiness can be built, but it can't be the source of happiness. Money can only buy you security.

Also I'm pretty sure the idea of being happy 24/7 is a pipe dream orchestrated by the consumerist society. If we aren't experiencing happiness the entire time we somehow become unsatisfied with life and we'll try to ''buy'' our way into happiness--which again, is impossible.

Happiness is simply contentment, not some chemical firing off inside your brain.

this guy is close, but money is only an invisible chain that keeps the normies inside the matrix. they will chase the desire to get rich but never achieve it due to lack of intelligence.

>>7259889
Happiness is achieved by moving closer to set goals. What are your goals, op? If money was your goal, then making it means you can't derive happiness from it anymore. It's about the path, not the destination.

Other factors playing a part in experiencing happiness:

>Friends
>Family
>Diet
>Exercise
>Amount of time wasted (your own definition) each day

If you're rich, you should be able to maintain a healthy, tasty diet easily. You should also have enough free time to spend an hour exercising most days.

You need to set new goals, OP. Happiness isn't really a goal, seeing as it's a side-effect of moving towards a goal.

Take 5 tabs of lsd at once come back and tell us yourself. Nobody can teach you the "secret" that you've always had everything you need to be happy, and anytime you're sad it's your own damn fault. I can say it over and over again but at the end of the day you're gonna have to figure it out on your own if you truly desire to understand what the fuck is going on

>things go your way, you're happy
>things don't go your way, you're unhappy
life is such that things will often not go your way no matter what you do. The key to happiness is choosing to be happy whether things go your way or not. Happiness is a feeling that can be chosen.

>>7259889
As someone older. You will only realize you were happy after it's gone. Just live for the moment and stop trying to fill a hole. You've been conditioned to believe you have one. Enjoy what you have, for everything eventually returns to ash.

Not sure if you meant to quote someone else, seeing as you said I'm taking advice from womens magazines, while also saying I'm onto something. Something challening, but not impossible, that you enjoy and want to improve on is exactly what I'm talking about.

If you meant to quote me, what advice is flawed?

Bowing down to God is the key to happiness. try it, just bow down to God and take it all in

>>7259889
the key to happiness is to not seek happiness but instead seek peace of mind (stillness of mind). happiness implies a subjective viewpoint and therefore can never last, but peace of mind, once attained, is with you for life

Quality over quantity, my friend. Having things does not make you happy. True joy is achieved from determining your mission in life and executing it. A man cannot be happy while stagnant. You must ascend and occupy your time with things that will help you grow as a person and do the world good.

Think of money as potential energy. No one actually wants money, they want what they can aquire with it. You're in a very fortune position. You can spend money on things that will move you forward. Hookers and video games won't do that. You're going to die someday, rememeber that.

Engage with the world, build something amazing, and develop deep and loving relationships with people who you enjoy spending time with.

Excitement obviously, and maybe the order in which you do things. The vacation might have been a good first move after making it to relax a bit since crypto honestly takes work. Instead you did more work.

>>7259889
honesty answer
>perspective

The truth is sad. Smart people will never be truly happy because they understand the world more, and by that, they know how little do they actually know, and how everything is kind of pointless and kind of very impactful.

TL;DR

Lower intelligence = higher happiness.

Also, in both happiness and sadness there is beauty. Focus on observing beauty.

The key to happiness is your mind and inner richness. You will never find true happiness when your happiness depends on outer circumstances.

>>7259889
I'll tell you the key to happiness if you tell exactly what you did and what you traded

>>7259889
This >>7261105 anon is correct. Perpetual happiness can not be achieved, it's a transient sensation. You can, however, achieve stillness and peace, which is a close second. Look into meditation/zen/tao, it's the same shit really.

Also, according to the flow model of Csíkszentmihályi (and in my experience as well), you are at your happiest when you are working towards a specific goal. The task at hand must be tough, but not too hard, it has to be something you can achieve by focusing your all on it.

So have some goals and meditate. And don't take life too seriously, it's all an absurd joke with us dying in the end.

Happiness is not a diploma, there is always expansion and new things to achieve. Happines lies in the journeys

Happiness means different things to different people, but to me, Happiness is knowing that you can die, knowing you left this world better than you found it anon. If you can honestly say that, then I think you are doing pretty good. Happiness is a temporary state, and you will not always be happy, but being able to say that you made a positive impact on the world and did your damnedest to improve the lives of others and yourself is enough for me to happy.

>Anon, what is the key to happiness?
Find a hobby and make friends, anon.

This isn't a joke, or a dig at you, this is an honest suggestion. Friends right now are what you need.

To my left is a simplified version of the hierarchy of needs. Right now, you've passed your basic needs, and you're starting to hit psychological needs.

You need to find a way to get out and socialize with people. In my experience, getting into tabletop games was a great way to build a new circle of friends. An old friend of mine used sports as a way to find new friends when he moved across the country.

Best of luck anon.

You need to have a goal. A mountain to climb. Humans are beings that are always chasing something. If you're not chasing something worthwhile you're not living a meaningful life.

Also, "happiness" is a meme. There are happy moments and there are sad moments. Both are useful and meaningful and a life needs to have a good dose of both. Trying to be in consistent state of happiness is impossible and you'll only be disappointed when it never happens.

Find something worthwhile to chase and do and it will give your life meaning, which is the closest you'll get to "happiness".

Live according to your own set of carefully chosen values, and a mission to go along with that, that you work towards whilst balancing family, friends, financial and personal needs. If you're an atheist, I would strongly consider some kind of transhumanist mission - as death is an incredibly depressing prospect.

>>7259889
Happiness must come from internal satisfaction. Self Improvement and acceptance of the transient nature of life are key to becoming happy.

>>7259889
With your success, you may have effectively insulated yourself from surprises. You need to get out of your comfort zone or you’ll be forced out of your comfort zone. Do things that you know will challenge you physically and mentally, set goals that don’t involve money seem far off, knowing that when you accomplish them, they won’t bring you happiness, but rather the process will. Build a boat with your bare hands and then burn it down.

Happiness is just an illusion. It is the holy grail which most people chase, but never achieve. The key is to realize that the present is the only thing you actually have. A better goal is to achieve a peace of mind, not to be happy.
Try going on the self actualization path and fulfill your maximum potential. Play the game of life and enjoy it. Realize the impermanent and transient nature of everything and go with the flow. Life is just a game to enjoy after all.

Ever notice how every poor person who wins the lottery always manage to completely ruin their lives and end up in more misery than before.
No amount of money will save you from your own stupidity, you will continue to make poor choices in life, except now you actually have something to lose. You will suffer like you were meant to.

Happiness comes from the three main ingredients of health, work and relationships.

You obviously have the work area in control but I think you're deficient in the other areas.

>>7259889

>>7259889
pursuit of a goal greater than yourself
4 humanity and the planet
helping others achieve it with you

abundance is fine, but amplifies your weaknesses, so your attitude is perfect

focus on your new employees lives and be generous

Happiness is just contentment with your current situation. It only slows down progress. You aren't improving while you're content. You're improving whilst struggling, cause it means something in your environment goes beyond your current capabilities and that you are changing to deal with it. Discontentment is more valuable than happiness I think. Without any real struggle in your life you become a cartoon of a human being, a superficial shell

nothing exists except a sea of infinite passing moments... "happiness" is just a projection, but it is worth nothing without that we call "sadness", i wouldnt call yourselve wise yet

start/keep meditating - look into spiritual texts (only for metaphors at first, until ur willing to dive in more) and consider using your money to help those who have next to nothing (and im not referring to 4chan beggars)... good luck

As all life is born to die, so all men are born to decay. There can be no succour in this world. As the centuries drag past our cultures will fade, just as our bodies waste and our passions cool as the winter of life approaches.

In time our mightiest cities shall crack and crumble, and our lofty ideals shall grow weary and jaded. For what are our achievements if not the follies of pride and ignorance?

All shall be forgotten with the passing of years. There will be no exceptions.

For who amongst us can escape the predations of time? Whom amongst us is beyond the inevitability of decay? That which is young can only grow old. That which is whole and sweet can only shrivel and sour. Nothing is permanent and nothing may remain without blemish. It is the fate of all things that they are bound to time, and time is the twin of decay.

So bend a knee, all of this world. Bend a knee all who would embrace their fate and thereby rise above it. Rise up, give in, surrender yourselves to the master of this world.
