Well thats the thing though, why do people assume you can't be rich and happy? Why is it one or the other?

You can be rich and happy.  Like Bill Gates, or Warren Buffet etc.

 

However, to be rich and happy you need to like what you do.  Or be willing to quit shortly after making a bunch of money.

I probably wouldn't of enjoyed what I would do.  And I'm not the type of person to quit a job that pays me millions per year.

 

You can be rich and happy, you can also be rich and unhappy. Even though success and happiness have a correlation (I would imagine), it's not like they are joined together at the hip.

I would always rather be happy than rich though, I've never really cared for money and material possessions, it's something a lot people have always said about me. I think I've always put mine and other peoples happiness in front of money and possessions.

Isn't that basically what I said?
