Don't ya love this two but response given any time you criticize or express dislike of a rich person, usually a celebrity?
Examples:
"Ellen Degenerate is indeed a degenerate with a degenerate TV show!"
"Yeah, but she has more money than you!"
-
Yeah I see a lot of that on here.It is pretty stupid to say.
-
Its a great point imo ???
-
Money can be had from selling drugs, prostitution, winning the lottery, pure chance/luck, bullshittery. It's not a good indication of actual worth. If you exploit stupid people to get rich, does that make you smart?
-
Who cares about money. Now if they say "yeah but he has more muscle than you"

Or, "he looks better than you with his posing thong hiked up his ass".

I always say that I have more speed, punching power, agility, stamina, etc than you
the physical realm is MY REALM 8)
don't give a flying fuck about the monetary realm
-
Money cant buy awesome big arms.

The atheists that created religion say yes.

It is what the money represents, the freedom to do what you want. I work around scientists that have big egos, but I know how to invest and grow money, they don't (for the most part) After I retire, they will still be plugging in at work until 65, some living paycheck to paycheck, performing the same boring tasks over and over.
Ellen can do whatever she wants. She can afford 10 lifetimes of fun = winning.

Many scientists who have advanced degrees just love their job. There are many full-time tenured professors at Harvard who make 200K who are 60+. Are we going to assume they are living pay check to pay check? ??? ??? ??? Maybe they just love doing research and teaching. My mentor is 67, married to a wealthy women and still works full time. Believe it or not, some people just love their job.
As for doing what you want with money, well, that only matters if youre emotionally and physically healthy. But, tell that to Chester Bennington, Robin William, Kurt Cobain, etc. Money + Physical Health + Emotional Health = Happiness. And since we do not know about Ellens physical or emotional health, its almost impossible to say she is happier than the next person. Though, with money, she still will be able to do what she wants, but that wont matter much if you're emotionally and physically a mess (e.g., Robin Williams). And, for what it's worth, I am not saying that money does not make people happy. Of course it does, as long as other aspects of your life are in order.
As for myself, I do not see myself ever retiring. As long as I am physically and emotionally stable, I will always work, in some way or another.

I agree but not where I work. The pharmaceutical industry is very stressful in certain situations especially production. I have worked 2 production/manufacturing jobs in my life, Ford (automotive), and Sanofi (pharma). I didn't know a single person on the line who liked their jobs at Ford. In Sanofi some of the desk jockeys like their jobs, but the core production guys usually don't. There is never enough time, and a mistake can be big. With OT it isn't hard to go well over 100K which is why we put up with it. I could teach my job to a 9th grader no problem, and I'm at 100K by September. Tenured profs have it damn good. I understand why some of them would love their jobs.

When you work for companies like that, I could see where it could get really stressful--the setting really determines everything.
Of course, there are many scientists who love their job and are doing nicely--and there are many wall street bankers who hate their jobs and their lives, despite being rich.
I don't know if there is anyway to determine who is happier. Obviously, money can determine happiness if youre living pay check to pay check and are on the verge of poverty. However, money can buy happiness up to a point. This study shows the cut off at 75K
Except, according to a new study from Princeton University's Woodrow Wilson School, it sort of does — up to about $75,000 a year. The lower a person's annual income falls below that benchmark, the unhappier he or she feels. But no matter how much more than $75,000 people make, they don't report any greater degree of happiness.
There was a difference between a "person's changeable, day-to-day mood" vs. "a deeper satisfaction you feel about the way your life is going." Higher income people reported that they felt like their life was working out on the whole, however, it didn't necessarily make them happier. As reported, "High incomes don't bring you happiness, but they do bring you a life you think is better."

Interesting. I worked for Sanofi in the late 80's when they still had their food/gums division.
