Venting Money doesn't make me happy.

[EndlessRage]

I'm well aware a lot of people here want to kill themselves because of financial problems.

I eat nice food that doesn't taste like shit, i dress in nice clothes, i can buy the best phone, having a roof over my head.

It doesn't make anything better for me, it means nothing. This doesn't mean that I'm ungrateful but superficial things haven't brought me any happiness, they're just temporary copes.
If you had a terrible childhood, bad parents, faced bullying in school, rape. Money wouldn't be worth anything because the things i mentioned, you can't buy them, you can't buy emotions, you
can't buy good memories.

Having Benjamin Franklin in your pocket won't fix your trauma. The currency just keeps me alive, allows me to cope. It has no real value,
Everyday i wish i was born broke, but at least happy.

Before i kill myself, i would donate all my money to charity or to a cause that helps people like me.

There's been studies that once people have enough money to meet their basic needs, more money does not equate to more happiness. Having human loving connections through family and or friends is also vital for happiness. All humans experience some degree of trauma. Some are able to cope, work through it, become resilient and thrive. For others it completely destroys them.

Damn, you're on point. There's also hedonic adaptation that contributes to the whole thing, I believe

I agree, I have found that health is the most important thing of all, much more important than money.

Yeah once you have the basic needs met it's diminishing returns afterwards. If you've been seriously damaged or don't have proper emotional bonds with the other humans you will still need to ctb.
