RE: Can Money Buy Happiness?

Happiness, for me, is a piece of land productive enough to handle my entire extended family's existential concerns for generations. Money can buy that.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

I can buy myself all the caffeinated beverages and oatmeal cream pies I want, which is something at least.

Money has never made man happy, nor will it, there is nothing in its nature to produce happiness. The more of it one has the more one wants. ~ Benjamin Franklin

Money may not buy happiness, but it's lack has a purchase on misery.
