New Poll on Personal Happiness

[JimBob1952]

.Sorry, JimBob1952,. One of your first threads drew posts, which you weren't expecting. You must know that people's "happiness" is closely correlated to their financial situation. And "happiness" can mean many things to many people.

No problem at all. All posts were civil and coherent. That's why I like this forum.

I know people think everything is going to hell in a handbasket, but then there is this:

90 percent of Americans say they are satisfied with their personal life....

I'm pretty satisfied with my personal life. I'm in control of it so it's not so bad. It could be a lot worse.

Of course this poll was taken pre-coronavirus and pre-riots. I'm sure the results would be quite different now.

Doesn't matter JB. I'm still pretty satisfied.

 

[JimBob1952]

Me too, but I'm nowhere near as optimistic about the US as I was in January 2020.

JB I haven't been very optimistic about the US in a long time so this has just added fuel to the fire far as I'm concerned. LOL
