Now that I actually have a comfortable amount of money, I can say that it does indeed buy happiness. The guilt free occasional food delivery, being able to afford going out w friends, buying something that makes life easier, health appointments!, hiring a service. Y'ALL THEY LIED

They really did though. There's so much.

Helping a friend in need without worrying about if they can pay you back before your next paycheck. Short-notice travel in emergencies. Replacing things when they break instead of either trying to tape them back together for 50% function or going without. Heck, being able to buy better-quality things that don't break within the year. Taking a day off without destroying your budget (though if you're making better money you probably have paid time off, don't get me started). Getting out of slumlord rentals. Hobbies!! (Seems small until you don't have time or money or energy just for playing and having fun.)

There's a point at which additional money stops buying more happiness, which is where rich people are at, so I think it's our responsibility as a society to relieve them of that oppressive extra wealth and redistribute it to people who would be made happy.
