    There's a myth going round the world which I think I have expressed beautifully in the title of this post.

    So, here's my challenge to anyone who believes it - You, (all of you) give me and my girlfriend plenty of money, and we promise to upload a video every month demonstrating just exactly how happy you have made us.

    No deal, McCutcheon, that moon money is mine!

    Of course money doesn't make you happy. It's the things that you buy with the money that make you happy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,092 ✭✭✭Le King


    Yeah sure, no problem buddy. While the country is fcuked and people have no money to spend we will give you and your missus money to try and disprove a myth.

    Somehow I think that is similar to the train of thought that has this country spiraling downwards.

    meh

    While I may yet be proven wrong, I don't think the OP was really asking you to crack open your wallet and post off a fiver. Way to go with introducing a note of misery and recessioninsm to a lighthearted thread though. BTW OP, if your missus is hot, tell her I have a twenty with her name on it if she's game, kinda a "test the theory on a small scale before writing the thesis thing"

    Rich people aren't happy; they just think they are. ;)

    Given your proclivity to take things at face value, I can only assume you think the country is actually spiralling downwards. Don't worry, we're well supported by a tectonic plate. It's only the economy that's in trouble.

    Not wrong at all. we have no interest whatsoever in King's extra-miserable fiver. I'm talking like the rockerfella's cheque book money here. you know, you want it you got it type money. not really interested in the paper stuff at all.

    As for the rest of you riff-raff, I should have known that mentioning the word upload and video in the same post would conjure up all kinds of non-vatican friendly images in your filthy dirty little heads.. hmm, she is rather hot though, come to think of it.

    Pfffftttt, you're asking me to pay for videos of a man and a woman being happy, what the hell did you think I was gonna want to see??

    Money doesnt make you happy.

    Money gives you more options and so possibly more freedom but it definitely doesnt make you happy unless you use it accordingly .

    And no you cant have any of my money and I get my porn free too.

    "money doesnt make you happy" what a load of bollocks, I'd be plenty fcuking happy if I could wake up tomorrow, not have to go to work and stroll into a car dealers and drop 100 grand on a new car without a worry, or head off to the airport and jump on a flight going literally anywhere and not worry about the cost. "you'd be very lonely" yeah but I could buy new friends :pac:

    What rich people actually believe this? Look at the Heff for fook sake! Anyone who sayd he's not happy is plainly blind!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19 TK422


    Rich people aren't happy; they just think they are. ;)

    bol!

    What's the difference between that and real happiness? It's all just a state of mind.

    To quote someone who said something, sometime,

    "Money doesn't buy you happiness, but it buys you a better class of misery"
