    Other: Being loved. Loving others.

    I can't believe that everything you put is SO far from things that make you happy.

    All that stuff is ego related and ego is the enemy of peace and happiness, ie enjoying life.

    Money is incredibly important. Not so you can have status, but because it buys freedom. The freedom to do what you want. To not have to work. To go anywhere and do anything you want without having the obligation to be at a job at a certain time and place.

    what can make a person happy is having everything enough, I mean.. Enough money to spent, enough friend to hangout, enough time to relax and do hobbies, a good enough job, a perfect enough family, enough amount of foods and snacks, closet full enough with clothes, enough technology devices to have and any other things that enough to make you happy.. Lol

    I think that having a happy childhood sets you up for the rest of your life - and I don't mean being wealthy. I mean growing up with fun and laughter, and having loving parents who neither beat nor belittled you. The adults who come from these home should be well rounded with few issues, able to see the good in others or the fun all around them.

    Money is not important and sometimes a couple are happiest when they are both striving to make a home by pulling in the same direction. When they've achieved this, they sit bored looking at each other :o(

      My goal in life is to have children and watch them grow and learn. Children are so important to me. I also want to find a loving spouse who can complete my life! That's all I want.
      A family.

    i go by, obey only the rules you got to obey, like your job for instance or not shout profanities in public places. Other than that exercise your own world free of standards the others creat. Do you thing,sing loud,dance ,walk naked in your house. Go hiking, take photographs, tell someone you love that you love them. Simple things make a big difference.

    Ok, i am not "people" so i dont believe i am going to answer this very clearly, for me it would have to be something like: "To Live with you love, and to love where you are" or "to never be sad at hard times, always be happy at great times, and never be silent when your alone" But you know, thats just me...

    I really have no idea whatsoever, but the Buddhists seem to be a happy bunch, and they've got bugger all.

    I'm surprised you didn't have 'find true love' on there. Not that this is mine.
    Having some really close friends I can have fun with and who care about me is what makes me happy.

    Not to brag but I have a magnificent taste in music, and as I long as I have music, I am happy with life. If I didn't have music I'd sit in the corner and cry.

    How do the above 'possible' poll options make people enjoy life? ._. I bet you're trying to imply that life is too cruel for anyone to enjoy by the way you wrote those options.

    I think a person enjoys life by doing what they love. (It's better to die by the hands of what you love, than living out what is considered a 'good life' but to you it's 'dull and restrained'.) One only needs to be happy to enjoy life, and how to achieve that varies from person to person.

    Apparently what makes us most happy is helping others. I didn't exactly welcome that research, though, because it makes me feel selfish. Although if your selfish act benefits others, then maybe it's not so bad.

    Money is the most needed in this society so I would be lying if I said anything but the rich option.

      Needed for what? People don't NEED much money to live nowadays. Having more money than you need is just LUXURY.

      IMO, person can enjoy life when he/she is able to live as he wants to. I for example enjoy my life when I can do my work (I love my job). I don't need luxury, fame or love. Of course I take those too if possible (except fame), but I don't need them.
