Ask HN: What are the best ways you've seen for turning money into happiness?

Becoming softer on yourself and start acting without thinking, knowing that you have a bag of money to fall on which can make whaterver problem you get into due to your newly acquired impulsivity simply go away.

Thinking is kinda painful, if you think about it. You think today in order not to think in the future.

Many people never get to see that future because they don't allow themselves to.

Buying time. Working less and throwing money at problems so you have more time for friends, family, and hobbies you love.

People disagree with you here, but they obviously spend a lot of money on it because it makes them happy.

Hired a personal trainer for 3 months. Best part of my life. He was the best in the city, and he made me push my limits like anything. I achieved physical capabilities and mental toughness I never imagined I could. Gave me immense confidence in myself.

Planning to hire a seasoned developer to help me speed up learning C and C++ at an in depth level. Am a Linux admin, and don't find time to spend time on C/C++. So thinking of spending money on that too.
