Money Talk
I've been thinking a lot about money lately. Mostly because I am trying to figure out how to get more of it so I won't have to go into loan debt in order to put dear daughter through college beginning this fall. Although I haven't quite figured out how to do that besides tightening our belts wherever we can, I did stumble across this article--
Scientists put a price on happiness - msnbc.com. It claims that people are happier with pricier items because they believe the item is of better quality than those that cost less. But I was glad to read that finding a bargain can be linked to happiness too, because I'm all about finding bargains.

Neat article. There's been lots of interesting studies on this lately including one that finds that people in Denmark are the happiest because they have low expectations and, therefore, are generally pleased beyond expectations. I dont know about that though. I have high expectations and am also a very happy person!
