#4People with higher intelligence are less happy
So what do we truly want? To be intelligent and unhappy or not intelligent and happy? I am trying to decide.
By the way I am feeling very happyComment -

#13^^^^ This. I envy all the morons everywhere, oblivious of all the chit going on, Not a care in the world, Forest Gumping their way thru life. Others are worried about China, Ukraine, the economy, the market in the toilet etc.Comment -

Yep, the happiest people I know are completely uninformed and oblivious about so many things in the world. A really great example are kids - they are so happy because they haven't learned about how F-ed up the world is and all the problems they will face.
I have a sister that lives a really safe lifestyle. She's a really smart college teacher (physics), totally set financially with retirement, etc. No kids or family to worry about but she's super-worried about her health and germs and things like that and basically unhappy. Almost as though she's run out of things that actually pose a threat to her so she subconsciously makes up things to worry and be be unhappy about.
I'm much less "set" that sis. I probably make close to the same money but work in a volatile industry where my income goes up/down and have a wife, four kids and all the stress and BS that comes along with that. I'm often worry and wouldn't describe myself as overly happy.
In the end 99% of the people on this board really don't have real things to worry about. As in we really don't have threats to our health or lives. We have "First-World Problems" as I like to describe them.Comment -

Unfortunately there is no choice to be made on both counts.
Either your inteligent or your not and either your happy or your not.Comment -

#19people think they are intelligent because they have an opinion about what they see on TV
"i'm informed about important issues !!"
meanwhile family life is a nuclear dumpster fire

We are all going to die.
But I don't think we are all going to die because the universe is expanding. At least not in any current human's lifetime. Do you?Comment -
