I want to be happy first and foremost, but right now to do that I need to make a little bit of extra money to help pay for my new apartment and to pay on some of my bad choices when I was younger.  Getting my debt paid off would make me happy.  Not rich, but happy.

I think I can be rich and happy because right now I am poor and happy, so I know if I was rich I would be happy also, because I would be happy to help others with my money, family, church and others

I disagree with that statment. You can be rich and happy at the same time. However, you must be able to overcome the temptation to allow your riches to overpower you and make you think you are better than other people.

This seems like a trick questions since many are picking unhappy and rich in order to buy happiness. But by picking the rich path do you lose your family and friends who make you happy. If that is the case I would take the poor path. Friends and family can't be replaced and heck I kinda already live below the poverty line it wouldn't be that big of a change except I might be happier than I already am. =)

True everlasting happiness does not focus on material wealth in the physical world.  If you found God in your heart, money does not matter anymore. I have known one person who committed suicide when she had everything in her life, yet she still felt empty and sad inside. The more material wealth gained, the more dissatisfied one become. Serving and giving back to mankind with your heart is enough to make our hearts fully content and satisfied. It’s not necessary to be an unhappy affluent individual in order to become happy if your heart isn’t there. :angel11:

If those are my only two choices I will take poor and happy since I can work and be happy but money certainly cannot buy happiness.

Money only buys things not happiness. Who has to have everything to be happy.  Happy is who you are as a person and if you can look at yourself in the mirrior at the end of the day.
