Wealth does not necessarily guaranty happiness. To what extent do you agree with this statement?

Many people believe that wealth is the key to happiness. Others feel that

having a lot of money create
money
 create more problems than solving them. In my opinion, people who have sufficient
money
 for basic necessities are more content compared to the ones who have surplus funds. To commence with, undoubtedly,
money
 plays a vital role in today’s scenario because it is the medium to purchase almost everything required for survival
such
 as food, clothes, shelter, medicines, etc. If you possess

 funds to be able to fulfil these requirements, you are going to be satisfied which in turn gives you pleasure.

 doesn’t give you a real motivation to go out to work which makes you lethargic and depressed.
Secondly

Last
 but not the least, having plenty of
money
 results in a fear of losing it which leads to the

 being mentally and socially unhealthy. For all these reasons I feel that having a great deal of
money
 actually brings the opposite of happiness. It leads people to lose sight of the real sources of happiness, which often come from simple things like family life and friendship. Wealth prevents people from seeing the true value of things, only recognising what they cost.
