Yes I also think money is not happiness. Money can buy some happiness in the form of material things but permanent happiness that comes from you. And I believe to be happy ourselves we need to be content with
whatever is happening in our daily lives.
I say it can't. It can buy us material things but never happiness. It provides us our needs and wants but material things does not define our happiness. Even if we have lots of money, we will never be satisfied and happy.
For money you can buy power, love, sex, high position in society. You can buy health for money. I think that for many people this is happiness. For me as well. Before, I was not so mercantile. But, when faced with reality, I realized that money is very important in our life
