Wait a minute and think about the question, "Can money buy happiness?" Please take a moment to read it, and I will give you a better understanding of this subject matter.
Happiness is a difficult word to define. Happiness can be made from your actions and the way you think of it.
"Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better to take things as they come along with patience and equanimity." β Carl Jung
Others might say that money can buy happiness because money can be used to pay for the shoes you have been dreaming to have or the gadgets you really wanted. Some people say that money gives you strength, power, influence, and other skills, while others disagree.
What does it really mean to be happy?
It seems that this is just another inquiry that can be challenged to answer in many ways, but I want to believe that happiness is not determined by the number of zeros in your money, but by the people in our lives and what determines us.
Even though money is considered one of the most powerful things in this world because everyone is looking for money, it cannot bring you genuine happiness.
It cannot even keep us close to friends or loving families throughout our lives because admit it or not, some people, even our relatives sometimes, only know you when you have money. But if you have nothing, you'll be nothing to them as if you are not related to them.

Happiness depends on living with proper virtues.
Virtue is character rather than activity. In other words, a moral person naturally wants to act for the right reasons and enjoy the right behavior. Virtue is a state between excess and deficiency. This average value varies from one person to another person, so there are no strict rules on it.
Why is happiness important?
If we tend to be happy, there will be more effects and advantages in life. They embrace us and make us more compassionate and healthy physically and emotionally. Being you is fun and can lead to a more happy life.
The main reason why it is so important is that happiness is essential to our life goals and can help us achieve several cherished personal ambitions.
When we are happy, we can also change the pressure of the environment simply by being ourselves.
How many times have you been to a place, and there is a problem with your mood or atmosphere?
When you have joy in your heart, it not only affects you but also positively affects everyone you meet, including the atmosphere.
So this is the domino effect, and it all starts with you as a person. To feel happiness, you need to be open-minded and ready to build what you deserve.
To be able to try, we hope to get rid of the negative energies or vibes that make us sad every day in our lives, or at best, to make ourselves feel that we are striving for a superficial area of ββunity.
Therefore, I firmly believe that money cannot bring eternal happiness to our lives because buying goods will lead to a limited sense of satisfaction.
You cannot purchase your emotions nor happy moments, nor can you buy everything related to them.
Money cannot be used to buy joy because the most precious gift in life cannot be purchased with cash. Happiness must be made the same way friendship and love can be felt.
Summary:
Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. People will say that money can buy joy because money can be used to pay for the shoes you have been dreaming to have or the gadgets you really wanted, but the feeling of delight that can be felt is just temporary. Money cannot bring eternal joy to our lives because buying goods will lead to a limited sense of satisfaction. Real and genuine happiness is priceless.
