Read it a bit and couldn't finish it on how bullshit it is.
It basically says they're great country, basic metrics that make people's lives better are great and then he disagrees with the studies because they don't go around in Finland counting smiles.
Happiness is about accomplishments, you set your life to work for something, greater or worse you'll get there in countries like Finland. That do make people happy and if you're "sad" with that, that's just a first world problem.
Come to Portugal where half of your wage gets stolen by direct and indirect taxes, making you study and work only to survive and you'll see what "happiness" is.
- G0ther 5y agoI don't even know what will make him happy but he seems socially deprived and kind of trying to fulfill that by shifting the definition of happiness into being a fucking clown. having all that and being "sad". I don't even know if antidepressants will work on him for god sake. most people are dying in the rat race. some are being mentally destroyed and crushed into just getting up the ladder a fucking little bit, others are just suiciding to let go of the pain and suffering. and they usually still laugh and try to be happy unless ofc they die, if having all these things isn't enough for him to be goddamn happy I don't know what will.
- mbrodersen 5y agoNope. Happiness is when your expectations matching your results. There are seriously stressed and depressed millionaires out there. And seriously happy non-millionaires. I know because I have met both.
- traveler01 5y agoI think they're way better than people fighting to survive even though they work their ass off everyday...
