    Happiness is happiness, if you're happy with a cake as a person is happy with a sports car. Your quality of happiness is the same but cheaper and more achievable

    True, to a point, but if you're Happiness is too cheap, then it starts to loose its value.
    If you are happy at every little thing, then every negative thing will be amplified as well.
    I would say Happiness is less about your desires, or even finding a balance.
    Its about appreciating the Good things that happen, while not stressing to much over the Bad.

    Ooh, science has this one answered! According to a Princeton study, maximal happiness is achieved, in the US at least, with approximately $75k yearly, with people generally being less happy with less money and no significant gains in happiness with more money.

    Na, that "study" was flawed from the get-go.

    Though it's certainly true that being in debt makes you less happy :D If you can stay happy in all circumstances, you're probably insanely delusional and I really respect that :P
