“money can’t buy happiness” is such a baby boomer concept like…. I don’t want excessive wealth to buy a golf plated toilet seat Karen, I just wish I wasn’t crying because I can’t afford both spaghetti and rent after working 40 hours a week

Out of all the problems I have, just one, ONE*, can’t be solved by having more money.

I think the “money doesn’t buy happiness” comes from people in the 50’s/60’s achieving financial stability and *still* being unhappy with their lives, trapped in an unhappy marriage with a boring steady job and with kids you can’t connect with because you never bothered to get to know them.

For my generation, money could buy the financial stability we sorely lack, the peace of mind of having enough to survive without having to depend on someone else.

Having more money could easily solve most of our problems and, if not bringing in happiness, at least contentment.

Id be happy if i had enoguh money to do stuff like buy a 2 bedroom apartment and be able or enough to go see my girlfriend or to start transitioning. money could easily solve most of my problems
