Argentina is among the happiest countries in the world! Out of 147 countries, it ranks 42nd. I can confirm that life here is truly happy, happiness isn’t about wealth but about connections, relationships, and community. I’ve lived in several countries, and I have to say, this is the best one!

 
Argentina is a great country to live IF you have already made your money and have income in dollars. Not sure if you ask the masses that they would say they are happy. A lot of people are unhappy or miserable here. A lot of people complaining all the time here. I don't know how scientific this is.
 
I'm not sure what this study is based on, but I don't think that's the case. The situation is quite difficult, with nearly half of the population living in poverty. Many people are struggling with depression and financial hardships.
 
I think most people didn’t understand the premise behind this ranking: 'Human happiness is driven by our relationships with others. Investing in positive social connections and engaging in benevolent actions are both matched by greater happiness.'

Most are arguing that the economy is the main factor, but I believe this goes beyond just financial stability. While economic hardship undoubtedly impacts well-being, meaningful relationships and a sense of purpose also play a crucial role in happiness. This study seems to be focusing on a broader perspective rather than just material conditions.
 
I totally get where you're coming from, but I believe happiness isn’t just about financial stability. Sure, it’s easier when you have a steady income in dollars, but the sense of community, culture, and connection that you find here is truly something special. I’ve met so many people who are genuinely happy, despite the challenges. It’s about the warmth, the friendships, and the feeling of being part of something bigger. So, I wouldn’t discount the idea that Argentina can be a happy place 🙂
