Closely related: people who say money can't buy happiness. Yeah fuck you. No one who was ever poor says that.

No, money doesn't buy happiness. A combination of hope, access, and money support happiness.

Without those three ingredients, you have a serious handicap to a stable life.

I make more money now than I ever did, and expected to be much happier. My pandemic "depression" has killed my hope and that money is not making me happy.

Anecdote is not data: understood.
