From the very first of our childhood we learnt one thing that "Money can not buy happiness". But is it applicable for all kinds of man? Does this proverb suits all?

I doubt! Because, if a person does not have enough or sufficient money to live how can he be happy? A child of slums may looks happy, may looks be in an incredible joy. But how long he will remain happy? When he will not get proper food or proper residence, when he will not meet his needs, he will turn out to be a beggar, thief, smuggler. This shortness and lackings of money will turn him from an innocent child or person to a lucifer.

According to me, this proverb suits to men who live in abundance, lead a life surrounding by immense wealth but does not have anyone to share his personal life, happiness, sorrow.

One example also come to my mind about me. My parents are feeding me, bearing my expenses but still i can not be happy. Because i do not have my own income, my own penny. Sometimes it seems the world is surrounded by money. Without money we barely can do anything.

All this for now. Though I do not know others will agree or not. Thanks for reading the post.

Actually, I am raised money does make happy. You need to work hard and save, save, and save for later. It is what generations before me was told and why they work hard and saved and... why so many are "angry" because they work hard their entire life and now need to give it away to those who never did. Never saved for the day they became older.

Money is needed everywhere we live. For without money we can not step a foot even in the world. And we should save some for our future.

No i did not mean that money is everything. Money is the medium of our live,our goal to be fulfilled. If we can not fulfill our goal how can we ensure our happiness. Ofcourse we are happy when we spend time with our dearest one. But in the long run money is also be needed. That's it.

You are very correct @Piku. When there is money, happiness will flow. On the contrary, it is sorrow. 'Money is very important in our lives".

Yes true. Many peoples are struggling just to meet their basic needs. When they able to eat two meals a day, that is their happiness! Although money can not be the only indicator of happiness. We should be just thankful to God for what we have.

That is the point. For some people only eat two meals a day is happiness. And without money they cannot fulfill thei needs. Even their basic needs cannot be fulfilled without money.

Money is important too but the main power is to be happy is satisfying with what i have... I guess satisfaction can bring Happiness in life.

Satisfaction is the basic of all kind of happiness i think. And if a person can be satisfied with only a day course meal he is happy. But for that he will need money to buy food!

This is true on the one side, but the biggest lie on the other. For those who can't eat properly, it is a pleasure for them to live on full stomachs, and many people have a lot of money and a lot of property, but they are unhappy for various reasons.They may not be happy for the reason that their loved ones are not there to share their happiness

This proverb suits to those who has a lot still they have less people to share life. And yes ofcourse there are people who are happy on full stomach, but for this they also need money. Without money how can they fulfil their stomach? We are always surrounded by money. 🤷‍♀

People say money cant buy happiness but I think for fulfilling your dreams you need money. And that dreams will bring you happiness. If you have money you can give a world tour. You can buy whatever you want. You can go wherever you wish. Do whatever you wish . Haaa.. Wouldnt it make you happy?? Just kidding.

I think that what the proverb is trying to say is that money should not be treated as an object, as a goal, but as a means to something.

I agree. I think though that it's not as much about money but about living in a place propitious to life and sharing something in common with the people.
Unfortunately as I see it, society is a mess. And so people need to have more than otherwise would be needed to live happily - to shelter from the noise, pollution and stigma from that society. Otherwise, [ ] beyond the basic and simple needs money is not that important.

(and you seem to be talking more about a purpose and independence and ownership, about what you are missing, than money. I think) (though money can represent that)

Money is not the ultimate thing a person want. But according to me to get what a man want and to fulfill the desire of a human being money is needed. That's it.
