She’s dated other dudes with money and they weren’t having it. The money wasn’t enough to deal with whatever drove them apart. Poverty can make you miserable, but having money can’t make you happy.
A school teacher was married to MacKenzie Bezos for a year. I honestly can’t imagine going from teacher salary to having so much money it’s not realistically possible to spend it faster than more comes in, then saying naahh nevermind.
Disagree. Its true that money itself can’t make you happy, but everyone has something that makes them happy, even if they haven’t discovered it yet, and you need money to buy/fund that thing. So yes, money does buy happiness
Whoever came up with the phrase money can't buy happiness is either delusional, super rich and ignorant, coping, or conflating irrelevant ideas with happiness.
So if all of my loved ones die of cancer within a week and I develop cancer myself, those are just "irrelevant issues", and I should always experience happiness because I have money?
I sincerely don't think you understand what happiness means.
Yes I am saying they aren't related to money buying happiness.
Nobody said money is all powerful. There are realities in the world we live in that cannot change. If you tell me that you will only be happy if you know how to fly like a bird or shoot fireballs from your hand. Money can't buy you that if that's what is supposedly going to make you happy. This is just like incurable diseases. Money can't make impossible possible.
But within the realms of possibility, there will be very few things money can't fix. For every 1 thing you find money can't fix there will be innumerable things it can.
So saying that money can't buy happiness is taking that extreme niche case and saying because it can't buy something impossible, therefore it can't buy happiness. That's just a disingenuous basis for an argument.
But there are plenty of rich people who have health issues, depression, say they aren't fulfilled/happy, and/or take their own lives. You don't need to look at niche cases.
Why didn't they just use their money to buy happiness and fix their problems?
I'm not saying that being wealthy is not helpful - it certainly fixes issues that poor people face. That's why studies show people are happy up to a certain income level ($75k or so) and not much happier after that. Their needs are met.
But beyond that, there are reasons to be unhappy that are not financial.
you're repeating yourself re: health issues again. i'm not going to repeat the same answer. go read my previous response as it applies as a valid response to this.
A health issue is just one of many examples of something money can't control... It doesn't have to be some niche, outlandish scenario like you seemed to suggest.
Again - I'm not saying money can't help with many things. But I totally disagree that an unhappy person can simply "buy" their happiness, or that they can't be unhappy because they are rich.
Money can't fix people with problems but don't seek help. Duh.
Those people either have incurable problems, just like the analogies I mentioned before, or they have problems that can be fixed but they aren't seeking a cure. For example, if you have billions of dollars but refuse to spend your money on getting therapy to get clean then that's on you. Money could've fixed it, you just chose not to.
Why are you assuming that money can always buy that thing that will make someone happy?
Examples: You have a disability/impairment that can't be resolved through money. You want close friends who you can trust, but you're famous and finding genuine friends is almost impossible
There's thousands of ways that someone can be unhappy and money can't fix it
Money doesn't buy you happiness? Being broke definitely buys you misery.
Most arguments I have had in my relationships would never have happened had we had that amount of wealth. Or even enough to pay people to do chores around the house.
Most arguments are down to one of more of these.
Cleaning.
Cooking.
Financial stress
Getting things fixed, having to do other chores, shopping, sorting everyday problems out. The sort of stuff a P.A. would do.
Stress at work.
Being tired.
Being worn out.
Work life balance.
The list goes on. You have enough money 99% of the shit people argue about evaporates.
Yes there are other things people get cranky about. Especially if addictions are involved, which with the rich certainly becomes an issue as normal rules cease to apply to them.
It’s not about necessity, it’s about sufficiency. You need money for happiness but money alone is insufficient. It’s for people who are workaholics and hoard wealth, not for people who are in poverty.
He's not arguing with her because he doesn't wanna be the next album. If he was smart tho he'd have learned from the previous dudes what he's gotten himself into. Just saying...
Oh I'm by no means saying she's important, her music is about as good as a dumpster fire and I've seen way more C-list actresses that look better than her.
What a stupid statement. People argue all the time even petty little things that doesn’t turn into a fight. I think he misunderstood fighting with having a discussion/argument
Let’s hope. As far as I’m concerned, never arguing in 2.5 years is a red flag. Particularly, it’s a red flag to be engaged while having never once had an argument.
Nothing like being married to a person the first time you find out what they’re like when they’re mad at you.
Maybe it is a definition thing. My wife and I have argued but I could see someone describing those arguments as disagreements. They would probably only consider something an argument if it became disrespectful or overly contentious.
Eh it's also a sign of a healthy relationship. I've been with my wife for 4 years now and I think I can count the number of genuine arguments we've had on one hand.
Thats not a sign of a healthy relationship. You will have disagreements. That means they just hold it in rather than saying anything. Obviously they dont spend a lot of time together, it would happen eventually. One of them is too scared to go against the other.
Obviously arguing constantly isn’t healthy. But at a certain point it’s human nature to be angry about something, anything. Is this healthy to never argue about something?
Never arguing in a 2.5-year relationship is a huge red flag. Never arguing would imply that you either agree with everything that your partner says/does/believes, which is impossible, or you are compromising yourself just to get along with the other person.
She does not argue but she will write about it one one of her songs
Guess we’ll hear about it on the next platinum album
Being this rich... You just hire people to argue for you.
Or let their fans do it for free

'half'
Money doesnt force happiness, but it sure as fuck makes a LOT of problems disappear especially with the level they're at
I think the best way to put it is still:
Money can't buy happiness, but not having enough money can cause unhappiness.
Disagree. Its true that money itself can’t make you happy, but everyone has something that makes them happy, even if they haven’t discovered it yet, and you need money to buy/fund that thing. So yes, money does buy happiness
Whoever came up with the phrase money can't buy happiness is either delusional, super rich and ignorant, coping, or conflating irrelevant ideas with happiness.
So someone with severe health issues is supposed to be happy?
What about all the rich and famous people who have taken their own lives?
Your conflating irrelevant issues with money buying happiness
So if all of my loved ones die of cancer within a week and I develop cancer myself, those are just "irrelevant issues", and I should always experience happiness because I have money?

“Nobody said money is all powerful”
Exactly— the phrase is talking about sufficiency, not necessity. Similar to the story of midas touch. Money is insufficient for happiness.
Here's another way of putting it. If tomorrow they invent a way to 100% cure any cancer but it is going to cost 10 million bucks.
Money will buy your type of happiness then.
And guess what, this happens already today with many diseases.
Tons of rich folks aren't happy...
Many wealthy folks have tons of problems, drugs, booze, divorces etc.
To you, they can go out and buy happiness.... if that was the case why are many wealthy folks unhappy then?
Money can't fix people with problems but don't seek help. Duh.
Those people either have incurable problems, just like the analogies I mentioned before, or they have problems that can be fixed but they aren't seeking a cure. For example, if you have billions of dollars but refuse to spend your money on getting therapy to get clean then that's on you. Money could've fixed it, you just chose not to.
I guess you can say money can't fix stupidity.
So your argument is that because some people are mega rich and still unhappy, then money will simply make nobody happy?
I hope you realise how ridiculous that is.
The phrase doesn’t say money will make no one happy. It’s that money alone is insufficient to be happy.
I don't know why you're telling me that. I'm disputing that person's assertion that what is true for some is true for all.
Some poor people are happy and some rich people are unhappy. That enough is proof that money is only part of the equation.
I agree. Money might not buy happiness, but it sure as hell buys you the time to find happiness.
Why are you assuming that money can always buy that thing that will make someone happy?

He's not arguing with her because he doesn't wanna be the next album. If he was smart tho he'd have learned from the previous dudes what he's gotten himself into. Just saying...
You make her sound awfully important. Worse case scenario she writes a song about him... that's about it...
Oh I'm by no means saying she's important, her music is about as good as a dumpster fire and I've seen way more C-list actresses that look better than her.
Whoa. Wow. What did a dumpster fire ever do to you dude. lol jk
Lol I'd take the dumpster fire over her 🤪
I dunno she's pretty cute. I'd be okay with being the inspiration for her next album
She doesn't really do anything for me. Now Sabrina Carpenter and Billie Eilish... 😍🫠
Ok. Fuck Billie. Marry Sabrina. Kill Taylor. hahaha
Yes that lol
And the swifties become a hive mind

This is getting moldy …
Ahh yes he surely lacks financial independence with only 70 million net worth. What will he do if she doesn’t support his broke ass?
Damn..has it been 2.5 years already?? Felt like yesterday this was all over the news
Kelce is worth 90 mil
Eh it's also a sign of a healthy relationship. I've been with my wife for 4 years now and I think I can count the number of genuine arguments we've had on one hand.
Thats not a sign of a healthy relationship. You will have disagreements. That means they just hold it in rather than saying anything. Obviously they dont spend a lot of time together, it would happen eventually. One of them is too scared to go against the other.
It depends how they define disagreement vs an argument.
Without more detail it’s a bit meaningless.
Disagreements aren't inherently arguments.
This is possibly the dumbest thing I’ve seen circulated relentlessly for longer than a week. Not funny. Not a meme.
Eat the rich. Taylor is a money grubbing piece of shit billionaire and that why we are so poor.
Someone making music is why you’re poor?
Taylor Swift isn't the reason you are poor. You are the reason you are poor.
How fucking dare you try and hold people accountable for their own choices… and on Reddit of all places.

They'd think he's marrying her for her money
There’s a picture out there of her yelling at him.
There's also a video of Trump passionately sucking Elon Musk's toes. Thanks to AI, we can no longer trust anything we see.
Its not about the money, they just probably have a good relationship
I mean he makes enough money himself to live comfortably
Like what would their argument be... What type of mega yacht they want to buy next?
Dude doesn't want a song about him. End of story. It might be different if she made good music.
Or they just have a good relationship and compatibility?
Maybe, they wouldn't fight with each other if they both made 40k a year too?
Also, their relationship is still pretty new (relatively,) arguments and points of disagreement tend to foster with time.
The lived experience of someone with $70M vs $1.6B is what? Flying private all the time vs. sometimes?
They haven’t argued in any of the 12 times they’ve seen each other
Obviously arguing constantly isn’t healthy. But at a certain point it’s human nature to be angry about something, anything. Is this healthy to never argue about something?
This is like the 30th time I’ve seen this dumbass meme.
Why have I seen this meme every single day for the last month?
He’s an NFL super bowl Champion.
Everyone acting like he couldn’t get a model anytime he wants.
Come on now.
I wouldnt argue either.. especially not until marriage is official 🤣
Guess its ok when she hordes 1.6 billion. You can still have a few mansions and cars and have a sensible 300 million networth.
Never arguing in a 2.5-year relationship is a huge red flag. Never arguing would imply that you either agree with everything that your partner says/does/believes, which is impossible, or you are compromising yourself just to get along with the other person.
Well certainly not money I read her tour made 2 billion & shes giving her crew 197 million in bonuses
Can’t imagine they’re with each other 24/7 though.
No way Kelce is worth $70m
What is funny about Taylor, is that all her songs from ex's are painted bad.
The rule of thumb is.
If every guy you date is the problem, then it's actually not the men, it's you. You are the common denominator.
People who say they never fight always seem to spontaneously split up. Like who knew
Meh. Fuck that. I like my integrity and my hard earned money.
Her "share," not her half.
There’s that 40% again.
.what billion?
