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

Wealth does not necessarily guarantee happiness. I partly agree with
this
idea. On the one hand, in some cases being rich makes us feel happy.
Firstly
, we often feel proud when we are richer than others. The rich are rarely looked down on by society as the poor.
For
example
, my brother earned $2000 per month in business when he was a student. He has been happy with it.
Secondly
, the rich are often given priority in services. So they hardly ever use bad service, so they are
also
in a more comfortable mood.
For
example
, when I book a
ticket
for a flight. I always book a VIP
ticket
. Because the VIP
ticket
gives me more incentives and the seat on the plane is more comfortable than the regular
ticket
.
On the other hand
, there are many things that can make us happy the same as being rich.
First
, Getting a successful career can make us feel happy and confident.
For
example
, my uncle got a promotion
last
week and he was very happy so he organized a party to celebrate.
Second
, being loved by everyone
also
make us happy a lot.
For
example
, my close friend often helps anyone he meets.
Therefore
he is usually loved by everyone, and his face is always happy. In conclusion, there are many things that can bring happiness to you. It can be being rich, getting a successful job or you can help others to feel happiness.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
