"Money doesn't make you happy. I now have $50 million but I was just as happy when I had $48 million"
- Arnold Schwarzenegger
About this Quote
This quote by Arnold Schwarzenegger speaks to the idea that money does not always equate to happiness. Despite having an additional 2 million dollars, Schwarzenegger mentions that he was simply as happy with $48 million as he is with $50 million. This suggests that money does not bring real happiness, and that it is not the most crucial factor in life. Instead, it is the experiences and relationships that we have that bring us joy and satisfaction. Cash can offer us with the methods to do things, but it can not buy us real joy. This quote serves as a suggestion to focus on the things that truly matter in life, instead of chasing money.
"Given the choice, children who don't want for anything will not save... We have an obligation as parents to give our children what they need. What they want we can give them as a special gift, or they can save their money for it"
"I was married to Margaret Joan Howe in 1940. Although not a scientist herself she has contributed more to my work than anyone else by providing a peaceful and happy home"
