Finally I got a job with great pay, and suddenly I feel happy, and don't want the World to end! How about that?

Money they pay you is funny one. The misery through the world and your neighbourhood is real. Blue or red, the pill?

Maybe you should be more concerned with the fact that it took making more money for you to find happiness.

Funny how that works...huh?

They say that money is the root of all evil...it's also the root of piece of mind.

Yeah because it's great worrying if you can pay rent or other fun bills. Moran

Well I was almost starving, and I could't afford to buy a t-shirt or some trousers for the last 2 years, and now I will be able to buy almost anything I want. So yeah, money makes me happy right now. Is that wrong?

sounds very selfish to me.

Your great job wasn't at Hostess, was it?
Cuz I have some bad news...

Sounds like you must have a job and plenty of money.
A very heavy monkey has been taken off this guy's back and all you want to do is insult him?
Leave the guy alone...all he wants is a new t-shirt and some trousers for crying out loud and you have the nerve to call him selfish.
Watch out OP, we have a "holier than thou" responder who likes to pop balloons and piss on parades.

Congrats on your new job and I hope that it provides you with the necessities you need.

Do you realize that Obama and the Democrats now consider you "lucky" and "wealthy", and they are obliging you to pay for other people's Obamaphones and EBT cards?

Good for you! Being broke sucks, don't let these morans on this site bring you down for making money. Money represents work and nothing to be ashamed of there.

Why is that? I've been living below the povery line for most of my life, how is being happy for a little money after 26 years of shit is selfish? I won't consume just for fun, but now I will be able to buy some things that I've been yearning fof for years. I'm not talking about Ipads of course.

The old adage "Money doesn't buy you happiness" applies to the people who are already rich and unhappy...it doesn't apply to struggling people who can hardly feed their kids or keep their power turned on. For people like that...money does bring happiness and pace of mind.

Thank you Friend, you are very kind!

I'm not American, but I get your point. Are "Obamaphones" real? I've been hearing about them for the last couple of weeks, but didn't bother to investigate.

Uh, No.

It doesn't matter if you have a job , no job , money or broke; the end of the world as you know it is here

you selfish bastard.

i may get rich from an invention soon

fuck it

burn it all down!

OP, both myself and my husband are happy in our jobs. Only miserable people that hate their jobs and their place in the world want chaos and destruction in the world and for others to be as miseable as them.

Remember, most doom is addictive and entertainment... People can't get enough. Congrats, enjoy life, doom is always around the corner, but usually is never as bad as people want it to be.

you dirty sell out, throw you couple o' dirty dollars and ya jumpin' fer more, you want in now, oh yeah, i'm alright Jack .... we're watching you

Going from near zero to easy survival is the most happiness money will ever bring.

In other words poverty brings unhappiness, wealth no matter how great doesn't necessarily bring happiness.

A $1000 dinner is only so much better than McDonalds.
But McDonalds is damn sure better than nothing.

Enyoi your job and forget about gaza.Just a local fire.
