Some people say the main way to be happy in life is to have a lot of money. How might having a lot of money make people happy? What other things in life can make people happy?
The man's search for
happiness
has transcended centuries. It is widely believed that the only path to happiness
is to have a significant amount of money
. Money
indeed enables people to buy amenities and things
in life
that directly or indirectly correlate to satisfaction. Still, other things
in life
like personal relationships make people happy that no amount of money
can ever buy.
It can be said without a doubt that money
brings convenience and comfort in life
. Happiness
can often be related to having the ability to travel, or shoot for one
's dreams or reach for higher goals, or buy what one
wants without worrying about the cost. It is, therefore
, not only the money
but the ability to spend money
comfortably to make things
happen. For instance
, for some, happiness
may come in the form of buying their favourite high-end sports car or taking that impromptu luxury trip to Paris or investing in a house in a different country.
However
, money
is not everything, and more money
does not guarantee happiness
. A person with all the riches in the world can also
be unhappy, sad or unsatisfied. Other things
that we often underestimate tend to be equally important in life
. Things
like - having the support of friends, family or relationships with loved ones can have a considerable impact on a person's well being. A sense of being a part of the community, being
well known in society, having a job Change the form of the verb
is
that is
fulfilling and having a purpose in life
can immensely influence the quality of life
we live and how happy, validated and satisfied we feel.
In conclusion, money
can help one
with resources that can lead one
to live a happy and comfortable life
. Still, money
alone doesn't guarantee happiness
- personal relationships, a job with a purpose, and status in society are all equally important to shape our lives and what keeps us happy.Submitted by mishrashalki21 on
