I don't believe that money can buy happiness but I do believe that, in some situations, having money can give one the time needed to facilitate the growth of happiness. For instance, think of all the time you'd have to do anything if you knew all your bills would always be paid and you didn't have to be a wage slave to just get along, let alone find happiness.
I don't think the idea of wage-slaving and paying monthly bills appeals to me very much hehe.
After reading Walden and the Essays of Ralph Waldo Emerson, I've been fascinated with the idea of self-reliance. I don't pretend to be an enlightened philosopher, but it's an interesting idea, possibly even workable.
I don't know if you've read Walden, but I think it's a very good book. His essay on Civil Disobedience is fairly interesting too.
Interesting....

Another great video Baron. I have another question for you if you don't mind me asking, but do you think money buys happiness?
