    Can money buy you happiness? Money would probably be on the top of everyone’s list of things they desire‚ along with other things that only money could buy‚ but does that mean that money will make you happy?

    The Emotional Breakdown of Margot Macomber In Ernest Hemingway’s “The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber”‚ many have wondered – even debated – if the death of Francis Macomber was accidental or intentional when his wife‚ Margot‚ shot him in his skull on a hunting expedition in Africa.

Igor Kopytoff (1986) defines this process in modern nations as a tension between culturally ascribed and individually determined value‚ which takes into account the degree to which something is unique.

    Money Doesn’t Make People Happy Tim Harford “The hippies‚" claimed economist Andrew Oswald recently‚ "are having their quiet revenge." Oswald‚ a professor at Warwick University in England‚ is one of a growing number of economists fascinated by the question of what makes us happy.

    Happy Mardi Gras! It seems we’ve just finished planning and shopping and cooking and giving for Valentine’s Day and now another big food day descends upon us‚ that of Mardi Gras! Many people associate Mardi Gras with New Orleans Jazz bands‚ parade krewes‚ and overall hedonistic behavior. I’d say that’s about right. Shrove Tuesday‚ Pancake Tuesday‚ Fat Tuesday‚ (or in French‚ it’s Mardi Gras)‚ and Carnival. Whatever one calls it‚ it adds up to a day‚ for some‚ of pure debauchery. For most‚ it’s

    Is it possible to have a happy marriage today? The NY Times called America a “post-marital society.” Tragically‚ that seems to be accurate. I say tragically because marriage is good. It’s good for your spiritual health‚ your mental health‚ your physical health‚ your fiscal health‚ your sexual life. In short‚ it’s good all around. In fact‚ a classic book by Peggy Waite and Maggie Gallagher‚ The Case for Marriage‚ documents all these things. They even show that people who are married live longer and
