Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy a lot of the prerequisites

I'd argue it can by happiness in a very literal sense since you can pay people to do things you don't want to do, thus freeing up your time enjoy however you like.

Having to not do certain things may not make you happy either. Maybe you have some other problems

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Being able to spend your time doing things you want to do obviously makes everyone happier.

Does that? Yes. That alone? No!
