Reader comment on: Why Giving Makes You Happy

>>43% of the American adults who gave blood two to three times during the year said they were very happy versus only 29% of those who did not give blood, but were very happy.>>

Isn't it obvious? Too much blood will make you unhappy!

Wish they had plotted the information along what percentage of income people were giving away. I mean, if you're unable to make ends meet for yourself, it seems sensible that you would a) be unhappy and b) be unlikely to give to charity.
