Episode 3881: Sam challenges the popular notion that money can't buy happiness by arguing that both the poor and ultra-wealthy often say this to cope with their own circumstances. He makes the case that financial abundance can significantly reduce stress, increase freedom, and enable joyful experiences, ultimately leading to greater happiness when money is used intentionally. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.financialsamurai.com/only-the-poor-or-super-rich-say-money-cant-buy-happiness/ Quotes to ponder: "Whoever said 'money can’t buy happiness' is either poor, or wealthy beyond their wildest dreams." "The reason why money does buy happiness is because once you have money, you don’t worry about money anymore." "At the end of the day, money is relative. And the more money you can earn and accumulate, the happier you will likely be." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
