Lottery winners whining that they’re not happy is ridiculous. 😂 Why don’t I ever hear about lottery winners donating some of their winnings to the homeless or less fortunate. Wouldn’t that make you happier? Helping your fellow man?

An important factor in connectedness is walkable cities and all the coincidental meetings with friends and strangers on the street. Cars and car-dependent city design are a reliable way of making people isolated and miserable. Not Just Bikes has a lovely video about why he would not chose to raise kids in suburbia, which shows highlights the terrible isolation in suburban lifestyles mediated by private cars..

So money basically just amplifies your happiness/unhappiness after reaching a threshold of $75k

It’s on me, I get it, but why let me dread it. You’re not what they say, and your intentions lead me dismay. But you’re fair, so I can’t complain, even though I feel pain. It’s on me, I jumped on cloud 9, I only wish thou Devine blessed me with sharp knives, so I could hope for a time when pain is listed in archives. I hate it, but of course I do, I just can’t complain about it too. I’m just another one, you won’t change your rules, and why would you, not a break for your tired little fools. You know what I want, but we all want the same, it’s tiresome, it’s brutal, it’s euphoric, it’s tame. I know I’ll get through it, which contradicts these convictions, but the contradictions are endless, I beg you please end this. I don’t want to die, but I don’t want to live, in this world that does not gift, without a shift. I would like to call you wicked, but i can’t cause you’re not, your ethics are liquid, and your plan appears a plot. Respect you, I do not, for what can I go off of, I still pay for all happiness that they say you offer. Hate you, I cannot, as I have all I wanted, I just wish you stood out so we could talk and be bonded. The apple was never bitten, it still hangs in its tree, its knowledge and secrets still guarded by thee. Your power’s unmatched as it’s incomprehensible, the apple reveals nothing for us which is sensible. You could be hiding in plain sight, but we wouldn’t know that light, I don’t believe them, but i want to, because it means I’m not right, but it feels like I am, and I’m stuck in the fight. I write this to you with no hope in my view, and a concoction of feelings my mind strives to brew. I wish I could join you then run back to my cell, again and again until you could tell. If my cover were lost, I know you would catch me, but It would be worth it, to not pay to be happy.

Lol, scientists man. "As far as we know the longest study". Because we can't discount the possibility the Ancient Egyptians did a longer one and just forgot to write it down haha.
Also I love that the mediator was a woman, the two stubborn doctors had to get mom involved.
@LondonWater Says:
It’s just a weird way of looking at things. Like I have chosen to not engage in an actual relationship with a woman (my preferred attraction) yet, I never feel lonely🤷♂️ I remember the feeling of loneliness when I was younger, but as an adult, I simply never feel lonely. You could put me on mars, (alone) and I’d still just feel like…. Me🤷♂️🤷♂️
@bearlemley Says:
This is all mumbo-jumbo and way too complex. I discovered how to be happy one morning in August 1993. I’ve been happy every day since then.
One can have everything in the world compared to the next person and not be happy, unless they decide to be happy with everything.
You can be happy about the Sunrise, if you choose to be- or not. So we see that happiness is a choice just as unhappiness can be a choice for whatever reason.
Somedays things that make the decisiondecision to be happy more difficult And someday it’s an easy decision. Even when I lost my parents, although difficult, I made the decision to be happy and remember all the things they taught me and the joy they brought into my life.
This is really work for me and I sincerely have been happy every day since that morning in August 1993. Every morning, I consciously make the decision to be happy. My family and people around me I’m sure will attest to this fact.
It’s really not complicated at all
15 years ago, so I read about Buddhism and the life of the Buddha, and it seems to me that he was not only trying to read his mind I’ve dissatisfaction, but also searching for happiness. I think he found what I have found only he suffered greater to arrive at the same decision. The decision of happiness. At any moment, if there is a possibility for you to make the decision to be unhappy, you will know it is then rational that you can make the opposite decision.
No, I gave this video a thumbs up as I generally do for Derek, but this was just merely an amusement concerning the studies and the complexities thrown at the subject unnecessarily.

People who don’t have money think money is the most important, people who do have money realize it’s not. I trust the latter group because they actually have experience with and without money to come to a real conclusion without speculating.

there is no simple explanation to it as people are different no matter how similar they are. i always say its just roller coaster.. up you re happy, down you re unhappy, up again and happy again... there is no up without down, and no down without up.. just like there is no electricity without polarity, so long as you have a healthy balance of polarity, you are happy.

@rfvtgbzhn Says:
I am not sure if the thing that people think of money when thinking about happiness, but not about relationship, can be generalized. I think it is mainly an US phenomenon, because US culture is so much based on wealth. In Europe from my experience most people know that both are important.
@rfvtgbzhn Says:
15:41 I think blaming it just on the internet is wrong. School, work, etc. has all become more demanding and people are forced to move into remote areas because of high rents in cities. All of this makes it more difficult to meet in person, and the internet is often replacing this nof because people prefer it, but because it's easier to organize, less timeconsuming and often also cheaper.
@bramweinreder2346 Says:
People in cognitive therapy are like doh... Read "the happiness trap". Nobody is happy all the time, you are not broken. But living according to your values will help you to appreciate life with all its ups and downs. This is the definition of success that truly matters, not being wealthy or achievements in your career. Those are bogus means towards a fake end. Living to your values could bring you these things, if the opportunity exists, while living a meaningful life regardless.
@donaldbshaw2189 Says:
You can't happy without unhappy. Peace is better.
@marshapelo9830 Says:
This study is obsolete because it does take into account single people with passionate hobbies. People with hobbies can be occupied with their alone time. This study also does not consider that introverts are happier being alone.

It is not the technology that has created this dilemma of loneliness and multiple chronic health issues. It is our stupid, uneducated, warmonger politicians that have messed up our lives.
@jedkemekt2062 Says:
The reason myself and many young people say money is because we’re broke, deep in debt, can’t afford a house or shelter, and work all the time. I work 50-60 hours a week and make 40-50K a year. I work two jobs and overtime on night shift, have no friends, and don’t see my partner often since most of my life is working or sleeping.
Also that $75K per year in 2010 being when income stops correlating with happiness is over $106,000 per year when adjusted for inflation.

A point about exercise - I think there's something to be said for the fact that people who can't exercise are potentially more likely to die. If you have multiple sclerosis for example, or other cancers, or autoimmune issues, COPD, and so on.

@wthomas5697 Says:
I'm not sure what length of life has to do with happiness. I've known people who lived a long time simply because of the prevalence of their fear of death. Happiness would be the absence of fear. Also, I know I feel better alone than with someone. This much is obvious to me.
