6 ways Money can buy happiness

  1. Help others : human are one of the most social animals on the planet and having strong relationships. Many people can increase their happiness by giving money to charity.
  2. Buying a big pleasure , don't purchase little pleasure : for example going out coffee or having beer with friends or co-workers every day  is less  happy than buying two week trip to Hawaii. Money doesn't make you happy then you are not spending it Right.
  3. Buy experiences rather than things : experiences is that you can reflect on them and visit it again and again.
  4. Pay now , consume later is a bad idea and give you more stress : if you can not afford an item (example iphone 4s ) you shouldn't buy it on debt, wait until you can afford the purchase. 
  5. Think about what you are not thinking about : example if you buy a house that is old and in constant need of repair, it might not bring you a hole lot of happiness unless you enjoy spending most of your free time doing repair. Remember : happiness is the  small details  of life.
  6. Listen to the crowd : friends, family members can tell you a lot about their experiences what brings them happiness.
