This doesn't mean that I'd ever personally be ok w/ being homeless and poor, I'd never be happy that way, it's more than just a lack of money that's working against you. Money helps, and can be "good", but its not what makes life what it is, it's people that make life what it is and what those indivduals find hapiness in... so as long as your focus isn't on money then you will easily gain more fulfillment out of life. I've always told everyone around me this, "I don't have to be the richest man on earth, but a nice house, a job that's not work, a comftarble living, and a damm good car is all I need. After that I swear you'll never hear another peep out of me."
haha, I'm sure we're on the same side of the argument man, all I was trying to point out is that money can help, but as I've said, family/friends are something that you can't obtain just by having more money.
