    Default The Happiest States "Ironic?"

    Happiest States Revealed by New Research - Yahoo! News


    I noticed this on yahoo news. I find it interesting that 5 of the ten are in the southeast even if you exclude Florida. I find this great for SC, AL, and TN where I might want to live. Yet, these are some of the poorest states,so apparently money greed and multiple government handouts does not equal happiness!So if you are unhappy please don't move to these states because I want them to stay happy for when I get there!
    I would love to hear the thoughts as to why this happened.

    I'm pretty sure they still take in their fair share of government handouts.

    Top 3 are all pretty obvious. Tenn isn't even a stretch... but Arizona? 120 degrees does not make me happy.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    That is by far the most offensive and mean thing I have ever been called. I have been called many mean nasty ugly things, buy that was by far te worst.
    I am crying now and don't know if I can go on.
    I may live here in the north now, but I still look at myself as the old phrase," American by birth, Southern by the grace of God!"

    Trey, you are always mentioning that you are from Mississippi ..... I know that you live in God's country now .... OOPS I mean NY so I hope you will take my post as the jest it was meant to be. BTW, my father was born and raised in Mississippi and died in Louisiana for whatever that is worth.

    My homestate is #8? BS! This place is miserable, IMO.

    Real estate is one good part about living down here, though. You can buy a nice, roomy, brick 4 bedroom house in a nice suburb for around $250K.
