Thought for the day

[madelaine]

For money you can have everything it is said. No, that is not true. You can buy food, but not appetite; medicine, but not health; soft beds, but not sleep; knowledge but not intelligence; glitter, but not comfort; fun, but not pleasure; acquaintances, but not friendship; servants, but not faithfulness; grey hair, but not honor; quiet days, but not peace. The shell of all things you can get for money. But not the kernel. That cannot be had for money. -Arne Garborg, writer (1851-1924)

Money doesn't buy happiness, but, if I have to be miserable, then I'd rather be miserable in comfort.

Absolutely. Of course, it depends on ones constitution.

If one tends to be miserable, money won't make a difference, and vice versa if one is happy, money won't change that.

Money doesn't buy happiness, but helps you look in more places

[damian_steele]

Money might not buy happiness, but it sure does remove a lot of the reasons to be miserable.

That is very true

I loved that~ Would make a great sign or poster.

Loved the knowledge but not intelligence~just might use that on occasions.
