I learned, wow! Give my daughter $900 and she's a whole new person. Too bad I can't do that every day.
How important is money to you?
Money is the key to a life well lived. It is profoundly important. Love and companionship may be high up on the list, but try finding love and companionship while you're homeless or living in a shack. Possible. But only for people who are innately skilled socially.
My first year psych professor said this to the class, very first thing, "Money may not buy happiness, but it makes a helluva down payment."
Likewise, studies have shown this over and over again. People who make less money are less happy. I can definitely attest to that.

Money can buy happiness but both only last a short time.
Money is important in that you can’t survive or buy thing without it. You need some kind of income or financial assistance to afford to do anything.
It’s not like in the old days where they traded things and services.
Money is a necessity of life. As long as I can pay for the things I need, and also have enough left over for some luxuries in life, I'm happy with that
I'd hate to only have enough money for the things I need, and never be able to buy the things I want.
I'm financial stable , so I can afford both.
Money is important , but not the utmost important

It is. Your whole entire life can change depending on how much money you got.
You either go way down, or up. Ask people who live in the streets if how important money is to them.
Those who are rich have earned their money the hard way as well..(or at least most do).

if life was able to go back to not needing it to survive I would happily do so...
to me money doesn't matter, if i won the lottery I would more than likely give most of it away and pay off my bills and get a better place to live but that would not change my outlook on life and it wouldn't matter to me either way... -
I saved all the money i earned from odd jobs helpjng my aunts and from working with my grandma. When i got a gift card from my aunt i wouldn't want to spend all of it save it as for my sister she would want to spend all of it plus little more of my mom money.
Saving has benefits -
Nominally; I still live in a capitalist nation and an increasingly more capitalist world. However, I don't value money or the tokens thereof like most people. I've awakened to the reality of modern day slavery, and I count the days until the majority of people join me. If that time comes in my lifetime, I'll gleefully help lead the revolution.

I don’t think love can be bought. I love my parents no matter if they give me money or not. I think your daughter hasn’t discovered the true values in life yet. Superficial teenagers, very common. I mean, I could use money for a breast augmentation and a rhinoplasty but I’m not gonna treat people differently because I don’t have the money. It’s up to me to work for it.

Not all of us are rich our parent just as broke.. But it doesn't mean we r poor quality people.. Now as a man I can not live off of a womans resources like a bum.. I have to be contributing also even if I have less money remember men with money have options... They move girl to girl.. Easy..

It's very important for those who don't have enough. You could give me £5 right now and I would feel like I won the lottery. I just spent 1 1/2 searching my entire house for 5 pence just so I could go out and have a pint and socialise for an hour.
Money doesn't buy happiness, but it alleviates the stress of not having any and it allows you to do things that do make you happy -
I mostly use my money that's not being saved or used for school to go to concerts. If I have enough to go see my favorite artists, I'm happy. Although I suppose if I had more I would be able to do more with it.

Honestly money isn't that important to me. I've been broke and now I have nice things and a good amount of money. I think I was more happy being broke. Money never buys happiness

900 BUCKS !!! IS that a yearly thing are you insane , kids no nothing of hard ships and work , your feeding your child a hard pill to swallow when she gets older.

$$$ is very important to me, but not everything!
It makes Life comfortable and satisfies needs.
In a Capitalist society, barter doesn't really work well -
Wow good lord someone has enough wealth to surprise their children like that, thats amazing, i hope she is a really good girl and will learn to respect
just dont spoil her :D
also money is the essence of life for me -
The happiest people have make just enough money to survive, and don’t have a job that wears them down too much.
-
Money is really really important. I hate the questions like love or money. As long as money isn't going to corrupt us in the end, if we know how to use it, it is very essential.
-
It makes me happy at first than I start to hate it in fact I wish money was non existent numbers are infinite and there's no happiness in Infinity thats just my opinion though I'm sure lots of people will not like that statement
-
Pretty important tbh. I just don’t have much use for it right now.
-
Money DOESN'T buy happiness and it not important at all
-
I wish my son would ask me for $900 I would slap him upside his head. Then give him the money I'm a big softy
-
Money is important but also gets you trouble I believe.
-
To survive financially really. But for happiness its not important. Espesially if you look at kids you can already make them happy with wooden cube. These we are so focussed on money its not funny anymore
