Money may not buy happiness, but it makes misery a lot easier to tolerate.
Money makes me happy for all its complexity in opportunities it gives.

It’s not the money that makes it easier, it’s the peace of mind of a stable living situation.
It doesn't buy happiness but it sure can buy a whole lot of pleasure.
People with money are more suicidal
If capitalism wasn't better than socialism then why do so many socialism countries turn to some capitalism methods to survive. 😊
Or, the only way a socialist state can be founded is because it was a capitalist system that built the country they now want to destroy.
If socialism wasn't better than capitalism, why do so many families use socialism in essence to care for their children?
A newborn literally sucks the tit of the mother, yet nobody goes around getting upset at babies for not providing for themselves. Everybody is okay with newborn socialism. It's almost like socialism is the default biological mechanism for human survival.
Preach! And why are so many people fleeing socialist countries to come to capitalist ones.
You're comparing apples with oranges. The meaning of socialism is broader than capitalism.
Socialism is a political form of society, as well as an economic philosophy based on socialization and collective ownership of the means of production.
Capitalism is an economic system based on profit.
I sincerely wish you find your way back home lost boy.
Then what does that say about capitalistic countries? That theyre not following capalistic guidelines? What an illogical statement.
Finnishing Up chapter 11 of 12 rules for life! as a lifetime skateboarder i thought it was hilarious how you said the kids you'd watch jump on the handrails would use one hand and lift themself onto the rail and slide down, A real Professional would just ollie on top of the rail no hands needed in skateboarding, Hope to meet you one Day Legendary Doctor Peterson. thanks for saving my life at times and helping keeping me alive till this point with all the wisdom you share.
Very clearly states that wealth is very related to happiness until the individual is free of misery. That is an unequivocally strong statement. If we are unable to manage our happiness after we are free from misery, it is the individuals failure.
It's obvious it takes more than $ to obtain happiness. The health of the body is great, but the health of the spirit is where you can find it. God bless 🙏

Money can't buy happiness, but you can buy a yacht and call it HAPPINESS.
*I like the way you think*
Lovely, well said, tnx
Happiness comes from fulfillment. If you measure that with money that you made then it is what it is
I can't think of a single problem that i have that i am also aware of that wouldn't be immediately solved by money.
That means your below the line he described
I never get tired to hear your lectures. You are life saver kind of human. God blessed you and protect you always . Thank you doc ❤
The fact that nothing had worked better in the past, does not means that one shouldn't keep improving capitalism/looking for better alternatives. The starting path to that is by gaining a better scientific understanding of the system and mechanisms behind capitalism depending less on "luck" and actually being able to make predictions. Ironically the system should invest in itself to improve itself. Just as a human being does.
I think Voters should have option to ''My pick is not on the List'' and if that wins different candidates.
Sounds like an excellent idea
Thank you, 💯
There is a huge difference between straight up free market and markets with artificial boundaries put in by the state. I'm from Germany and we have something called social market economy. It's main goal is to achieve prosperity for everyone and help especially the weak in society so they get their part of the cake if they do their part. Which is way better than capitalism with open market since ruthless predators can't do whatever they feel like and no one gets left behind, all that while we redeem all the positives of capitalism like generating more wealth than ever before
That was beautiful. GOD bless Dr. Jordan B Peterson. Never stop thinking the way you do.
It's remains the best and only reliable method we have the tools and understanding to implement without complete bedlum.
*Bedlam
I learn something every time I listen to this man. Usually, I learn how hopelessly ignorant our body of knowledge still is.
Money buys a good time. Money can help your happiness level. But happiness can't be bought. Just like real love can't be.
if i lost my mother no amount of hookers and drugs can make me happy, not even a lambo
This is the first time ever that we have the opportunity to make things right to have power to the people and we're doing it all wrong, blaming everyone else not taking accountability for our own actions continuing to judge and mock and individual that is just trying to help.
Yes
I love ya Peterson! …”We”, Love ya out here 🌎 (the people).
Thanks Peterson 💯🇺🇸🗽♥️
No thing will make you happy.
Happiness isn't what you think it is. It's a moment in time. You can't just have one victory and then ascend to the happiness dimension you have to maintain the lifestyle of sustaining life
And it will cause pain. But rest will not make you happy it will make you depressed and die.
A body in motion stays in motion.
A body at rest stays at rest
Chasing happiness won't make you happy. Just let success come to you as you chase productivity. And "enjoy the enjoyment" of your labor. But don't worship it.
Is this hedonism? is this asceticism?
Is this both? Is this neither?
Not sure but its reality working
money relieved my suicidal depression, that's better than happiness to me. Just not feeling like i wanna die.
This video cured my depression and watered my crops, 10/10 would recommend
Money cannot buy happiness. However, money allows more optimal conditions that allow for more possibilities for choices. But then again, there is also the Paradox of Choice.
I wish I heard this earlier.
Could not have said it better myself!
money will make me happy.period. how? I don't have to work for money = I choose people I interact with and things I do to fill my time in this life. I make a decision or where I go, what I do, how an when I interact with other people - if that's not freedom, I don't know what is. if someone says 'money don't bring happiness' they simply don't know how to be happy.
Money is the symbol of human energy.
The best possible option always also has the worst possible outcome as a possibility. It's true of life in general.
WOW! Bravo Dr. Peterson, a clinical psychologist defending the much maligned capitalist system! Great job at weaving capitalism with personal responsibility as the ingredient to a successful society!❤🎉.
No but it can grant a degree of freedom and the more money the more freedom.
It really depends on *degrees of* wealth: Destitution is clearly less pleasing than affluence; whereas, being financially unburdened yet still need to work to live can be seen as better than being lavished from birth in riches and developmentally stunted by said status.
Peterson for world leader
CAN MONEY BUY HAPPINESS. JUST ASK THOSE THAT GIVE THERE WEALTH TO THE POOR.
that's one of those video titles you gotta make sure you read in its entirety before reacting 😅
I agree with Dr.Jordan Peterson
Mindless parrots tend to. Lest you forget that he is 💉'd
The social structure that you engage in could ultimately mean that it is good for you and your family.
So basically after you have enough money to pay all your bills and maybe afford basic luxuries , more money after that is just diminishing returns
I earned a lot of money but dont know what to do with it. I lost interest in money. 😢😢
states of mind are not determinant on states of matter. To believe otherwise is to reject the holy spirit. This is not to say "mind over matter" But mind holds the sovereignty over matter, and spirit holds the sovereignty over mind.
Are there three basic aspects to speak to about a Nation?

If the third is lessened out of either of the first two an inevitable end evolves like a fright train once down hill.

If you're looking for happiness, money will not bring that. If you're looking for security at least, money will help you bring that.
The answer is no. I have seen rich people more miserable than when they weren't rich and famous. Although certain aspects of that unhappiness could be part and parcel with an excessive amount of fame or unwanted attention. If paying bills, rent or worrying about whether or not you have enough to feed your family causes stress, with the current system, money can alleviate a massive amount of stress. Does that necessarily make a person happy? Varies from person to person imho.
I suppose Peterson in his 5000 bucks suits certainly isn't complaining about his economic arrangements......
I saw what was allegedly just _one_ of his bank account balances, that was leaked a few year back, via hackers, and it was close to the $40M mark. So, yeah... He's probably not the most impartial judge on issues relative to wealth (lit., wealth *disparity* ) 😏

Every time I see that guy in his suit, I see a business man who pretends to be an academic. That is really di$gusting......
@@hansweissmann_xviii6754 He never fooled me. I was introduced to him a couple of years back (IIRC, tangentially, through that other pseudo intellectual, Sam Harris), and after a few weeks of listening to his religiosity infused, "make your bed, and the world will be mended" simpleton's psychological babble, I realised he was little more than an 'intellectual' for the anti-intellectual generation (vernacular: "pop psychologist"). Anyone who uses "begs the question" as synonym for "RAISES the question", is a shameless SꚕꭤꙎꙎסּs ꝯסּꝩ and Semite sycophant, and who was themselves addicted to pharmaceuticals (Peterson almost bookending his career on a Russian gurney!), clearly, is no intellectual... More the archetype of a grifter who creates and/or parrots profitable memes tailored an audience lacking the cerebral wherewithal to discern an obvious, science-usurping Evangelical preacher donning a dunce cap mitre.
just about nothing more contemptable than a rich person telling someone with nothing that money wont make them happy.

If money was the sole antidote to misery, there wouldn't be so many miserable celebrities with more money than they know what to do with. The other thing is that people who earn a lot of money have to work endlessly. Most sane people would rather make less and have more leisure time instead.
Money can solve 90% of people's problems. Greed from the 1% is going to create a Hell, you're definitely not ready for.
There's the Star Trek economy by Jean-Luc Picard.
there is no economy in star trek. the existence of the matter replicator renders all forms of currency obsolete, which is why DS9 had to shoehorn the concept of gold pressed latinum which is "non-replicable" in order to actually have ferengi do classic money trading.
If star trek was internally consistent, the matter replicator would be treated as a universal miracle bestowed by humanity to all sentient races. It is the single most powerful, and most ignored technology in star trek.

Hi everyone, respect from Lithuania,it,s obviuos that lot,s of money give you freedom,but people want to be important,on the most posible scale,because look for example at Patrick B Davis,he goes on "net",because,in my personal subjective opinion,he understand,that without his fame,he will be just another "rich bitch"(like i "die antwoord"song)in Lamborgini(or Bugati),and i think probably,similar example is Andrew Tate,and Don,s of the mob,s.
if China surpasses the U.S. will it be because of capitalism or communism?
Money doesn't just buy you needless luxuries. Money puts a roof over your head, food on your table, and pays medical bills. And if your human needs are not met, you won't be happy anyway.
Capitalism doesn't have a clear definition. Free markets don't have a clear definition. That's why it's easier to say the role of government is to protect a very short list of fundamental human rights - and put safe-guards in place to prevent government from growing to have a mind of its own. We have very very far passed by those safeguards here. Not only does government have a mind of its own, it's the primary mind of our world in the present.
If you allow people individual freedoms as your first priority, they may fail and turn to tribal war and bloodshed. If they're going to fail that badly on a moral level, nothing about having a big government is going to inject necessary virtue into society as a whole. We may be doomed to fail and burn the planet down in the process. If you can't trust individuals not to do that and put only the most basic protections of their rights in place to let them try, what's the point of trying to save the degenerate world through governance anyway?
capitalism as a term was coined by its enemies to slander the concept of a free market with zero government interference, another slanderous term invented by those people is "black market". You can tell a propaganda term exists when its definition is wide and vague.
social capitalism is the way to go
I've never valued myself enough to become wealthy. I've made large amounts of money, had a high income, a few different times. But I've decimated myself through frivolous consumption. I tell a lie to myself that money and wealth isn't important to me, and cite the Bible about it being better to be poor. And I spend it all.
I am still living in the misery of the bill collectors, though I possess the knowledge on how to invest and save. I pray that I can overcome this for my future self.
capitalism as postmodern economics?
I dont know if money would buy me happiness but id like to try it for a little while pay off some debts buy a home i would keep my job though just for my security because you just never know🤑
Will a person with more money be happier? No, a person with 10 million dollars is no happier than a person with 9million dollars..
Socialism is the best system in the world if you don't have greedy, corrupt, power hungry people at the top that will do anything to stay at the top including demolish democracy...and you don't have people that beleive they don't need to contribute to society but should get exactly the same benefits. But this is real life, and we have those things, and that's why capitalism is the best system. Democracy in capitalism ensures we have systems in place to pull up the needy. It amazes me that people fight so hard to push socialism recently. It's a massive short sightedness, seriously these people really don't see that they are being presented with an ideology from one side, with massively corrupt power hungry billionaires funding the propaganda in an attempt to take total control. The funny thing is the people that follow the ideology of socialism hate billionaires and fail to see the billionaires are the ones funding the ideology they are blindly following.
Dumb question with a rather obvious and self-explanatory answer:
*Yes; but, only for a time -- **_i.e.,_** only while the dopamine receptors related to the chemical "high" received from the sense of being "rich" / "wealthy" / "financially unburdened", still receive stimuli. That is, if one is **_born_** rich, it will simply be that person's "normal", and little (if any) satisfaction thereof will be derived; even less so, where that persons is, as is mostly the case, corralled within the socio-economic confines of commensurate affluence. This is why the rich will seem so greedy in their excesses and continual striving for further acquisition of [more] wealth: They must continue to seek a greater "high" in order to sustain the pleasure chemical feedback loop. Indeed, it is also why those with financial security will still, seemingly incongruously, fall into depression and/or worse.*
_>it's all relative_
The more money you have the more confident you become.
The problem with Capitalism is the same as the problem with government; it is helpful until it becomes more powerful than the people it is supposed to serve.
if workers were paid what they were actually worth, there would be less profits for investors, and that is against capitalism. The communist alternative of distributing the bonuses of creativity among the mindless is also wrong. I propose a middle ground of profit sharing and taking personal responsibility.
Capitalism with is commercials and propaganda is nothing good for 90% of the people. Most people it's actually terrible situation

Am I the only one who want's to know why Peterson thinks the population will peak at 9 billion? That's not a topic I want just glossed over and on to the next subject give me some damn data FFS!
just look up all the myriad of videos that discuss that topic specifically. He goes into the data. If you are going to autistically screech "HE DOESNT GO INTO IT HERE" off yourself.
The real reason as to why capitalism works and socialism doesn't is due to the fact that capitalism is in sync with the human nature.
It’s OK to have money and to be billionaires they long is the creating jobs and did the care of the human And build up self-esteem, not destroying humans and self-esteem, destroying children’s mind that you did this Joe, the young people with garbage and I taken off the deck, creativity.

Saying "money can't buy happiness" is stating that a "good" such as money cannot buy an "emotion" such as happiness.
Now you'll notice that in trade, you can only purchase goods and services. Or trade for goods and services. An emotion is neither a good, nor a service.
So stating "you cannot buy happiness" is like saying "you cannot cook your dreams"
It's a total non-sequitor.
And people who say "money isn't everything" are typically people who have come into money and blown it, or don't know how to spend it. People who claim "money isn't everything" typically blow it on materialistic goods, alcohol, women, drugs. Instead of living a normal life that is just comfortably padded with money.
It's an extremely foolisy statement.
As the great Thomas Sowell puts it:
- At what cost?
- Compared to what?
- What hard evidence do you have?
The three questions that the Left can't stand up to.
- Usually, at great cost to society -- if not through the oftentimes Machiavellian process its acquisition (a prerequisite in a Machiavellian system that capitalism inherently denotes); then, certainly, due to its subsequent and almost inevitable corralling by those with it (wealth is usually passed on nepotisically).
- Indeed, it is all relative -- someone born into wealth will not receive anywhere near the dopamine hit from knowing they are wealthy, than someone who, for example, wins the lottery does.
- Evidence is replete: Billionaires who inherit their wealth, still top themselves; those who win the lottery still squander their gain$.
Did I hear judgmentcallpodcast mentioned? Nice Ben Shapiro style podcasts without the shouting.
Fatal flaw : Capitalism depends on perpetual growth.
"...it's the worst form of economic arrangement except for every other one that we've tried." Except it's not. It's actually the best. Peterson clearly isn't happy about how capitalism works, but that's because (a) he has never experienced real laissez-faire capitalism, (b) he believes what exists today is "capitalism" (hint: It's not), and (c) he has never bothered to do the same kind of investigation into the history of actual capitalism that he has done with The Bible, one of the most anti-capitalist books in existence today.

Of course money will make you happy, just ask the broke person with no home how unhappy he is. Without money you will be very miserable.
That's in extremis. The psychological aspect pertains more to whether or not money itself translates to happiness -- the answer being, no. This is because happiness = a pleasure chemical interplay, and money (i.e., the sense of affluence and/or release of financial burden) is only temporary; and like with a drug addict requiring increasingly more of their chosen substance to elicit the same high -- eventually becoming merely a sense of "normal" -- the power of money to make one happy is limited, wanes, and is wholly relative to when an individual encounters this affluence (e.g., if one wins the lottery, the money will tend to make them much happier than if they were born into wealth).
I just saw Richard Wolff vs. Destiny and was surprised Dr. Wolff wasn't even able to define either socialism or capitalism. No one can. By socialism they basically mean "capitalism with more government interventions". Just say you're a left-wing capitalist, why even use the word "socialism".
Probably happy to get paid to speak
You show me 1 place thats adopted capitalism as its economic system, and ill show you a population that has never given consent to their government.
Dr Peterson doesn't seem to understand actual happiness - he equates "happiness" as the absence of suffering and misery. This is ludicrous, and borderline insane. But that's what psychometricians get paid to pontificate on.
Ha! When i watch the world crumble around me, i see those with money suffer the worst. As they should? Is this why we are here? To make as much money as we can? A competition to die with the most cash? To conquer so damn much that you cant f%&ng carry it all? 😂I carry almost everything that is actually mine with me every day and im rich af with the $5 in my pocket😂😂😂😂😂 No, seriously, i LIVE ON less than 6k per YEAR. Good thing the govt took my job, i get to save that NOTHING for taxes at the end of my next life!😂😂 they can kiss my puckered dot too😂
i think libertarianism is the future. maybe a few hundred years. maybe a thousand. but eventually.
Libertarianism cannot exist as long as there exists a multiplicity of governments.
Let me explain: for the same reason communism cannot be implemented due to captial flight being possible, libertarianism inevitably degrades to tyranny of the government out of the sheer necessity to have a standing army to fight Secular/Theocratic Empires, and Communist Empire.
Libertarainism can work only if Libertarians lived on the planet exclusively. I do not mean "we gotta spread the gospel of libertarianism" I literally mean libertarianism only works in a post-nuclear-genocide-world.
We may get a short time of libertarian government during the latter half of the Tribulation. But thats about the only realistic way it gets implemented. (literally by the antichrist at nuclear gunpoint).
8:56 - That is where I agree completely with you, Dr. Peterson. It is, however, an incredible challenge of integrity; to pursue individual virtue. There is great temptation to lie about your own reputation, especially in a capitalist nation like the USA. I perceive the British and Canadians to be more modest than the comparatively grandiose USA Americans.
Consider the fact that "American" tends to mean a person from the USA, instead of a person from North or South America. Two continents of people, claimed by one nation, which hardly allows immigration. That is disgusting grandiosity in my opinion.
Perhaps we should call ourselves "statesians" or some other unique label.
You can be rich but miserable. You can live on the street and be ecstatic. Both ways are possible.
It’s true that money alone won’t buy you happiness, but if you do not have enough money to be able to afford a dignified standard of living, you’re going to suffer, unless you’ve chosen that kind of lifestyle voluntarily (for religious reasons, for example).

Capitalism is homelessness,..
Lawsuit for people without house right now!!!
Money makes you happy only when you are rich,.. if you are poor will not be enough for you,..
Wrong. Oligarchy = homelessness.
You're confusing "crony capitalism" with "free market capitalism". It is a fact that the free market is responsible for lifting more people out of poverty than any other forms of economics and at a faster pace. It is also a fact that we are programmable beings so you should pay more attention and find out all you can about those you're allowing to write your code.
homelessness is a choice. Fight me.
