Im sorry but I disagree with this thread, I understand the concept and philosphy behind this, but in this day and age it is simply not true.
I have lived a life at times where I can not afford to get on public transport and eat properly everyday. I have actually been struggling again for 6 months as I lost my job at christmas, the truth is simple.
The books I like to read are never found in my local library, I like to read books dating back to 15th century, so rarely do I find books I want to read so buying them or downloading them and printing them off is the only option, both of which need money.
To eat healthily you need money, a healthy mind body and soul will create a state of happiness. Most people will struggle to be happy if their brains are lacking in nutrients and clouded with stress.
I have been asked to go back for 2 days training for a job I recently applied for, the training is 3 hours of walking away, so 6 hours in total.
As much as I love walking, this is clearly not efficient.
Money does buy happiness but only when you spend it on your happiness, if you have money and all you do is waste it on junk and partying then you wont be happy.
On the other hand if you invest it in yourself, your health and your wealth, this is a different story.
I dont want to work at this job, believe me its not job of the century. But I have a dream, I have a vision and this job is taking me closer to my goal, therefore I am so thankful that I have managed to find a job in these bad times.
1 year and I will be self employed and earning good money, you need a job if you want to be wealthy, how else are you going to pay for a domain, pay for websites, pay for investments, or pay people to do the work for you.
A job is a blessing in disguise if used wisely.
