Do you believe both positive and negative karma affect happiness?

I think the reason so many billionaires are having psychiatric problems and psychiatric medications is that they have the money and the social status, but not the positive karma that you need to be happy. You can own a Ferrari and be miserable because nobody loves you. And you can work at WalMart and be happy because you have a new born baby in the home that is full of innocence and joy. I have never met a rich person that did not have behavioural issues or mental health issues, but I know many middle class people who have good relationships, good health, and good morals.

I do believe in karma affecting people. I have seen things happen which should never have happened otherwise. Call it coincidence or karma but at the end if the day people often repent for what they did wrong. Although this does not mean one should not raise their voice if someone is doing something wrong.
As far as happiness is concerned, I also believe the same as you do and I have seen many more examples of happy couples with two kids. One earns the bread and both of them take care of the children together. On the other hand I know a very rich and educated couple always demeaning each other by comparing their educational degrees and wages.

Yes, karma usually affects happiness in my opinion, but sometimes it activates later, in the next incarnation, not always in the current one.

I don't think there's any doubt about it.
