I try to stress to my children that buying something never leads to true happiness.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I was a kid, my parents were always like, 'Money doesn't buy happiness.' I thought, 'You just didn't make enough money.' I had to go find it out for myself.
You don't find happiness by being able to buy everything you want, whenever you want it.
Recommend virtue to your children; it alone, not money, can make them happy. I speak from experience.
You always hear the phrase, money doesn't buy you happiness. But I always in the back of my mind figured a lot of money will buy you a little bit of happiness. But it's not really true. I got a new car because the old one's lease expired.
Money may not buy happiness, but it can damn well give it!
Money can't buy happiness, but it can make you awfully comfortable while you're being miserable.
My children are the only thing in my life that makes me happy.
Money can't buy happiness.
I'm not an overly material person. Sure, I like certain comforts in life. But buying a lot of 'things' doesn't produce happiness for me.
I think a child may be the only thing that could give me true happiness.
