Deepak Chopra says money doesn't mean happiness

According to author Deepak Chopra, happiness comes from how people look at situations in their lives plus their living conditions and the choices they make. Chopra's comments come following a report from the National Academy of Sciences on longevity. Says the report, older people who are happy have a 35% lower risk of dying over a five-year period than those who are not happy.

     Cashing In

Can't pay the rent?

Landlord gets snappy.
Write him check
You make him happy.

And what you need
To do that, though,
Is what is known
As lots of dough.

If you're feeling
A bit dysphoric,
Buy Deepak's book;
He'll be euphoric.
