 Money makes the world go round.

Take a second to think about all the times in your life so far that you've used money. Now take a second and think about how much you will use money when you live on your own and have a family. Without money what can you even do in life. It's a very sad fact that money controls our lives, but it's the complete truth.

Does money bring happiness?

Money can make you or break you. If you use your money right it can make you the jolliest person alive, but if you use it wrong you can become greedy and angry.

My family is middle class so we arn't making it rain, but we really don't have money problems. There has been times though where my parents have said how are we going to pay for all of this. Sometimes things happen where you need extra money that just isn't there, and if you had that money the situation would be much better. For example in 2005 my family's house was hit by huricane Ivan. That meant that we had to pretty much start from scartch and re-build our house. Thankfully we had insurance and were able to get loans to buy materials. Many people also doanted various things to us. We got through the flood, but money was tight during that time. I still think to this day what if we had all of that money and didn't have to worry about paying loans back or struggling to get by, life would've deffiently been easier for us, and a lot of stress and anguish would have been resolved. So yes for me I know money would bring happiness, maybe not so much happiness but stability.

This summer i stayed at my uncle Kevin and aunt Laura's house for two weeks. I got to travel by myself for the first time. It was really great to get away from my parents for so long. Anyways my aunt and uncle have made a great life for themsleves and their two kids. They have an amazing house on lake lenior, four beautiful cars, a boat, and more money than they know what to do with. While I stayd with them i had the best time, and i believe it was because of their money and all of the material things that they posses. My aunt Laura (who retired at 35) and I would go shopping everyday and go to really nice restraunts for lunch. Then when we got home the whole family would go out in the boat and then go out to dinner. It was seriously the life. Even though my uncle and his two sons Dennis and Aaron worked during the day; they had a beautiful house to come home to. Of course as you can imagine their has was the place whre everyone wanted to hangout at. So every night after dinner My cousin's friends came over and partied all night. Without their money none of this would be possible, and i would not have had the best vacation of my life. SO once again money can bring happiness if you use it right.
