You betcha!

As a graduation present, I got a new Athlon computer with state of the art graphics card and I am in complete ecstasy over it!

Now I'm off to the store to buy PoR!

'See you in a couple months!

Nice going, @Eminem. But I think you'll find PoR a little lacking next to some of the other current CRPG offerings (BG2, Arcanum), and will be back sooner than you imagine.

You can buy happiness. Haven't we all learned this from the mastercard commercial? ^_~

Happiness, no.

momentary gratification, yes.

you can definitely buy happiness.
if you were exceedingly wealthy, then you wouldn't have to work and could all the things that make you happy.

Doesn't it depend what makes you happy? Can't buy me love, as someone once sang...

i disagree, with tons of money at your disposal, you would be free to spend time with the one you love, pursue a new love, whatever.
most couples fight over money...with that out of the way, you are free to enjoy life and eachother.

Well I disagree Having time and money doesn't help you find someone you love in the first place, though I agree it can remove some amount of stress from a relationship

I personally don't think one can buy happiness, at least I know I can't.

Love, inner peace, a feeling of meaning to your existance, health...you can't buy any of this even if a lot of money will make things easier.
