This is a question that many people ask themselves but no one can answer with certainty because people have different thoughts and different points of view.
For me money can buy things that can certainly make you happy, nobody has ever heard a person of much money say "hey it makes me sad to have so much money" that's a lie, having money is not bad.
If you want to travel and have money you can buy tickets for different countries and know different cultures, if you want to do something different you can launch yourself in parachute, if you want to eat something delicious you can go to a luxurious restaurant, if you want to have a nice car you can buy it and get it. If you are a woman and you want to have a more desired body you can perform some operations and that makes them really happy, or if they want new clothes, or new makeup. If you have children you can buy new toys, and you will be the happiest person in the world. If you are a man you can go to a World Cup game that is expensive and that would make you happy.
In short, there are many things that can make you happy, it is not money as such, but the things you can acquire with it.
Now we go with the negative part, money can not buy things that are not material, that is, can not buy LOVE, can not buy appreciation, can not buy friendship, can not buy love, or commitment. In fact, having so much money you will have more false friends around you, more false relationships, more false friends, there are even children who do not want the father or the mother at all but for their interest they always write to him.
In fact there are celebrities who have a lot of money but who already have everything they want and need that they do not have to do with money, so they start destroying their lives buying the most expensive drugs, or buying things that really hurt them.
Money comes and goes, you may have a lot of money in a moment and the days you are in bankruptcy, having money is not bad, bad is not knowing how to use it. If you have money invest, see fruit and profits and of course enjoy it, for that is, but always remember, money is not everything, there is nothing better than having true friendships, a couple who really loves you, and real relationships.
