That seems like an odd arrangement for a house. Was it converted from 2 houses to 1 house or some other structure?
That's good you asked - I should clarify:
One of the rooms was a walk-in closet that was big enough to fit a bed.
It has no window, so it couldn't be classified as a "bedroom"...but it was definitely big enough to comfortably fit a bed in it.
Otherwise it was a master bedroom upstairs and two normal sized bedrooms [normal setup]. The main floor was a kitchen, dining room, and living room. And the downstairs was two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a computer lab. Each floor had its own bathroom, and there was a sauna in the basement, and hot tub on the back deck.
And it didn't make me happy.
Moving into a smaller place and making money off my money made me happy. So while I will say money is a factor in happiness, to me it's just about security, rather than material wealth and shiny things.
I live like a pauper now, but I don't think I would be happier living in a bigger place.
My current house is a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom...but I much prefer it.
I'm still miserable though...but that has more to do with Canada becoming a communist country than anything else.
That's my car in the driveway, before I gave it to my kids' mom:
