Can you be poor AND happy ?

AbbeyRhode · F
Of course, just like you can be rich and miserable. It's all in the mind.

@AbbeyRhode Good point 👍
Of [i]course.[/i] You can be [i][b]anything[/b][/i] and happy.
Just choose happiness.
@PhoenixPhail I love that idea! I will share your thought with others whom I personally encounter on a regular basis. Thank you for your insight on being happy though poor.
@seotelkniwt You're welcome. And, thank you for sharing my thought.
@PhoenixPhail Yes I will be happy to share YOUR fine thought with my friends. I will let them know I saw and replied to your thought on a social media site called SW 😀💖
Absolutely hands down 😀 My happiness doesn't depend on my external circumstances. My relationship with God helps me to be content with the things I have and to make the best use of them. I may not have access to filet mignon or an expensive cut of steak whenever I want it, yet I have come to realize that I can be just as happy with a pot of lima beans or pinto beans with a piece of smoked meat in it and a piece of cornbread just as well. And I can wash it all down with some ice cold grape Kool-Aid with freshly squeezed lemon in it. 😀

It depends on your attitude. I think I know a lot more happy people who don't make much but live within their means than wealthier people keeping up with the Jone's. The people I know who are really unhappy and poor are the people who want more than they can afford.

Of course. I've sat in a cold bedsit laughing my arse off with good friends.

Proper wealth is not the things that you own. It's the relations that you have with others.

@Thodsis Good to hear 👍

Of course. Wealth (or the lack thereof) has nothing to do with happiness.

For the most part... unless you have a threat of no home, no food and such.
Happiness sometimes depends on the people around us and situations.
