Be happy - get rich

Here's some food for thought. Money doesn't buy happiness but it seems that happiness makes you more likely to make money.

Via the NZ Herald: "Economists have found that happy people tend to become richer and are more likely to find love in a steady relationship, rather than the other way around. A study of 8000 people who were questioned about their lives during the 1990s found that even massive increases in wealth led to only minuscule increases in happiness....This in itself raises the question of why people expend so much effort on obtaining more income," they said.

Something to think about when you're standing in the Lotto line.
