Socrates Exchange: What is the Relationship between Money, Happiness, and a Good Life?

By Laura Knoy on Tuesday, October 28, 2008.

In our next installment of The Socrates Exchange we're asking the question: “What is the relationship between money, happiness, and a good life?” Our culture may often tell us the personal wealth equals success, but most of us are suspicious of this. What really is the relationship between money, happiness, and a good life? If money isn't essential for happiness, why are we concerned with poverty? Is money, as some say, the root of all evil?
