Why do people think that money will make them happier?

Let me tell you something. IT DOESN'T! I am from a family that easily makes well over $100K a year and I have never felt any happier as a result. If I came from a millionaire family I still wouldn't be happy. If I came from a family that barely makes 20K a year I still wouldn't be any happier.

It's all relative. Try living like Howard Hughes did for a while before saying that living on 20k you can be happy. FYI It drove him to all kinds of neurosis.
