TED: Michael Norton: How to buy happiness - Michael Norton (2011): At TEDxCambridge, Michael Norton shares fascinating research on how money can, indeed buy happiness -- when you don't spend it on yourself. Listen for surprising data on the many ways pro-social spending can benefit you, your work, and (of course) other people.

My Feedback on this Video -
In part l agree with a lot of what Michael says in this video and the fact that by giving of ones self is a way of making other peoples lives better, but personally it is the feeling we get of love that makes us a a person feel happier. Then as long as we expect nothing back in return for what we give our happiness stays with us and we continue without being promoted to continue to give of ourselves more and more.

A saying l would like to share with you is that is it not what we give that matters,be it a thought or a penny.It is the reason why you give that will show you how you feel. If you give only to receive you receive nothing more than the feeling,you should have given more.If you give what you can afford you will receive more from within yourself and find the true meaning of happiness forevermore.
