thinking and takeing care of yourself is what makes you happy in life right? Nope!

Looking out for only yourself is definitely should not be your goal in life! Why you ask, its because in the end of your life you will be friendless, have absolutely zero companions, and all people will be able to say about you was "he was a mean unpleasant stingy miser." These sentences are precisely what London and I would use to describe Scrooge. Think about this way if you must, what do you want people to remember you by when you've passed on to the next world. Loving caring people who die will have people sobbing at their funerals and they will be missed dearly. I don't know about you but this sounds way better than being a miser and have people strongly dislike you. You should live your live with a jovial out look on life! Take the little bit of time and extra effort to make someone else's life for the better. In doing this you your self feel happy too by seeing all the people that flourish under your kind helpful words. Some people think money makes you happy and gives you the same feelings you get when you help others. Can money smile back at you and have a heartily felt conversation? For most of us the answer is no. Don't spend your time trying to make as much money as possible when you could be experiencing the elation of being kind, caring, and simply a smiling reminder of the good in this world.
