Can money buy happiness? The famous
question that I’ve heard asked hundreds of times. I personally believe that if
you spend your money correctly, money can buy happiness. If you’re buying
things that make you happy then of course you will be happier in general.
At the
bottom of an article from CBS News it said, “’even spending as little as $40 to
buy ourselves out of a negative experience like cooking or cleaning can have
significant benefits on peoples happiness,” Whillan’s said. “Participants who
bought themselves time reported more joy, and less negative emotions.” “So,
money in fact can buy happiness if you spend it the right way!” said Susan
Spencer.”
Another
website also agreed that money can buy happiness if spent the right way. They
suggest spending it on extra time, hire yourself a maid so you have extra time
for yourself. Spend it on a great experience, something that will make life
lasting memories. Spend it with someone you care about, go out to dinner or to
your favourite concert with a loved one. Finally, spend it on someone else, it
feels good to make others feel good.
In
conclusion, I think money can buy happiness as long as you’re doing the right
things with it.
