“The fast degree to which my mental health improved once I had the smallest measure of economic security immediately unmasked this shameful fiction.”

But I thought money doesn’t buy happiness??

What a crock. I agree with this tweet so much. Being poor destroys your state of mind and leads to a perpetual state of anxiety.

It’s very true. Money also turns emergencies into inconveniences.

Normally a blown tire, a blown transmission in a car is a huge stressful event. Same thing if your furnace dies in the middle of the winter, or your kids accidentally throw a baseball through the window.

If people had a few thousand as buffer those emergencies suddenly turn into “ok tow the car to the shop”, or “call the furnace guy and replace it” etc
