who has the better overall long term benefit of life?
your input..

using my deductive method.. i think richer people are more miserable? (white collar)?

If you look at blue collar workers they seem to live a happier life.
and i mean higher income blue collar workers. ( firefighter, policemen, postman, mechanics)

what are your input on this?

just for arguments sake, why i think blue collar workers are happier. One of the most smartest person in the world is a blue collar worker. he has a I.Q of 200. but he owns a ranch. was a firefighter, a bouncer.


whats your argument?

I think it really depends on the individual.

I think happiness has less to do with how much money you make and more to do with your outlook on life in general.

They don't call it 'disgruntled mailman' and going 'postal' for no reason.

Firefighter, policeman, mechanic, etc. are generally occupations people choose to pursue because they enjoy doing it. Then again, there are also rich people out there who enjoy doing their jobs.

It all comes down to job satisfaction.
I won't bother since I won't read the rules and they won't accommodate.

People who say it comes down to the person or the satisfaction of the job have not experienced poverty or financial insecurity. Those who say otherwise have not lived in the real world and have lived in the comfort of their parent's livings.

Money is happiness because it has access to all things in life.

To answer the question, white collar.

lol

My dad is a landlord and he basically doesn't work at all. He's completely happy with that life. Who wouldn't? All he does is go three times a week and fix stuff like toilets, bathrooms, etc... which he finds as a hobby since he's a handy man.

Everyone in my family is a white collar person and we enjoy it.
