Question 8
If 50 people in your age group were selected randomly, how many do you think you would find leading a happier life than yours?
You suck. This Question Sucks.
EverydaySuperGoddess I prefer to keep my focus on my own level of happiness, thanks.
Lauren My Lord! Are you trying to make me cry? What kind of question is that? Okay, 10. Maybe 20.
I love this question! I’m happy!
Jill Miller Zimon Great question! I'm guessing...ten to twenty.
Eulallia That's a great question. I would have to say none. I am so fulfilled, and I think that is rare for someone my age.
Money might change my answer
Buffi Maybe five. In spite of my complaining, I can't imagine anything else that I would rather be doing. Except, perhaps, you know, winning the lottery...
Barbex Three maybe, my life is pretty good it just lacks some money.
Carmen Hmm, I've asked this question before, and I can't STAND the people who say - no one! I am the happiest EVER - they are the lyingest ever! I'd say maybe 1/3 - it'd be those with more money. A huge sum of money would make me the happiest person on the planet right now, because I'd put my autistic child in therapy every.single.day.
I’m just going to pick a number, okay?
Mazeway 17. Smug bastards.
Summer See, the pefectionist in me wants to say 0, and the self-deprecating turd in me wants to say 50 (or 49, if I am included in the 50, but why would anyoneinclude the likes of me?). They never agree on anything, so I shall default to the old standard: 42.
ishouldbeworking probably at least 25
Sleepless Mama About 15 or 20. But maybe I'm short-changing myself. I do have so many blessings.
Mir My guess is that I'm right in the middle, so let's say 25.
Jelly - Seven
Dawn 40
It’s so objective. I mean, I’m happy, but I can only speak for myself, and…
Holli I have no idea, I guess it depends on what day of the month you asked me that question.
Mother Goose Mouse Difficult to objectively quantify happiness, but I would say that I do lead a happier life than most. That's not to say that most would be happier if they traded places with me, just that I am really quite satisfied with what I've got (and not just on Thanksgiving!).
cmhl Happiness is relative--- it would depend on the level of neurosis of each person, and their ability to delegate. In certain aspects of my life, I would be the happiest out of the 50, I'm sure
Maryanne I hope at least half, but realistically probably on 10% or so. Happiness is hard for most of us to obtain.
Justice3 (if I base it on acquaintance/friends)
TOTALLY HAPPY!
Allison Maybe one, probably none.
Surcie One or two.
Mary Probably not many. Ignorance is bliss, you know.
Lin I think I’m a very happy person, usually optimistic and seldom way down, but I am sure there are people who are more naturally sunny. I have a secret joy that sometimes just washes over me and it has everything to do with just being alive. After being treated for ovarian cancer four (and a half) years ago, I do sometimes just feel very happy to be on this earth, healthy and mostly whole.
Jenijen Maybe one or two. I'm happy
The Happiest In the Land, Right? Magic Mirror? Right?
VickyOne...but I'd hunt her down... .

Probably about half. But half of that half would more than likely be lying or delusional.

I hope at least half are as happy or happier, unfortunatly I don't think that is the case.

Maybe 20...I'm with the people who say the ones with more money...that's really the only stress in my life.
