Can't buy me Love. Thanks
Money can buy me things that bring me happiness, yes, so I'd love to have that Midas touch.

Can love buy you peace of mind and security? No.

You shouldn't complain about poverty, you should only love.
Only love is allowed.

Love is an idea. Poverty is a reality.

Poverty is an idea, love is a reality.

Tell that to a Syrian refugee starving to death. But you probably think that is just an idea and starving people don't actually exist. Romanticism and idealism are quaint but they never put food on the table or alleviate suffering. I can't buy groceries with love.

Most of us will be dying in misery eventually, it's only natural. We'll see poverty and misery on a global scale in a couple decades, and nobody will care, or they will kill a couple of scapegoats to feel better about starving to death.
Might as well fall in love before we drop dead.
Ideas have the power to alter reality.

People have the power to alter circumstance. People motivated by ideas that they put into action. An idea in and of itself can do nothing.
Not money can certainly not buy you happiness.
I mean, access to healthcare, food, shelter, etc, are all pretty important for happiness, to be honest.
However, once you have enough money to cater for your needs, and a few wants, additional money doesn't do too much to make you 'happier'...imho.

Better yet, is money power?
That's rhetorical right?

Of course it is.

I think money is a game for many, and that earning money can be enjoyable. Warren Buffett comes to mind. Happiness is where you find it.
