Justin V.........oh my God.

Lets have an example: Family A: Cannot pay the bills, can only afford a crappy school for their two children who have tattered uniform and second hand ripped books, both kids have a hard time at school. Parents cannot afford to buy their kids presents EVER and feel like **** because they cant make them happy.

Family B: Have enough money. Still love each other , get by fine.

Money doesnt change love!

Answer 3

i think both are happy or sad in their own ways. Because both deal with different set of problems relative to their financial stature...so i say neither can be considered really "happier".

Answer 4

Happiness is an emotion associated with feelings ranging from contentment and satisfaction to bliss and intense joy.

Commonly market health measures such as GDP and GNP have been used as a measure of successful policy. However, although on average richer nations tend to be happier than poorer nations, beyond an average GDP/capita of about $15,000 a year, studies indicate the average income in a nation makes little difference to the average happiness of the people in the nation. It has been argued that happiness measures could be used not as a replacement for more traditional measures but as a supplement.

Happiness economics is the study of a country's well-being by combining economists' and psychologists' techniques. It relies on more expansive notions of utility than does conventional economics. Although its usefulness is yet to be determined, it has become a subject of interest and often a measure of comparison with the traditional forms of measuring market health such as GDP and GNP.

Given its very nature, happiness is subjective. It is difficult to compare one person’s happiness with another. It can be especially difficult to compare happiness across cultures. However, happiness economists believe they have solved this comparison problem. Cross-sections of large data samples across nations and time demonstrate consistent patterns in the determinates of happiness.

Micro-econometric happiness equations have the standard form: Wit = α + βxit + εit. In this equation W is the reported well-being of individual i at time t, and x is a vector of known variables, which include socio-demographic and socioeconomic characteristics..
