Sure I will choose sex and money :D
Money is necessary to fulfill our needs, and sex is also one of our need.
Even though money can buy sex, but it can't buy love. That's why what we need is make love, not make sex :D

If these theories were at all valid, wouldn't porn stars and prostitutes be the happiest people around? How about some families living in third world countries who have nothing other than what little food they can put in their mouth – but, they are happy with each other and close in relationships and families. Funny how many 40K families can barely tolerate each other once or twice a year. Interesting.

Sex does make a big difference in ur happiness, especially w/ someone u really love & enjoy. Money, like the article implied, once the basic needs are met, don't add a whole lot to happiness. Over and above financial independence, social relationships are paramount, particularily the sex quotient. Even if u are broke, busted, & disgusted & have good luvin, it smoothes over the rough spots & makes them stepping stones instead of road blocks.
