Happiness is very elusive.

It's a different thing than money.
What makes each of us happy, over time, will change over time.

Money is like air. You need enough to breath.

Happiness will not come from having money, unless you have spent a great deal of time, knowing how to spend it in ways that make the people in your life happy.

So if you don’t have people in your life, then money won’t make you happy. I personally find spending money on myself becomes boring very quickly..

And if the only way you can attract people into your life, is to show them money, you won’t be happy.

On the other hand, “There ain’t no Romance without Finance” ;-)

So Happiness in this way, can be very elusive, and it must be our primary goal in order to achieve it.

I have always felt, there would be no way I could truly devote myself to a career, unless I was finding happiness in it.

And my personal relationships; I could no longer pursue, if they do not make me happy.

Making new friends, makes me happy. Meeting new people that I admire, I can talk to, understand me, and enjoy my company.
