When a country is already rich, any additional increase in economic wealth does not make its citizens happier. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

In recent times, it is usually believed that the additional economic edification would not increase its resident’s happiness. In my opinion, I partly agree with

this

point of view. First and foremost,

people

should recognize the fact that economic wealth is only a part of human satisfaction;

therefore

, it can only please

people

to a certain extent. There is no denying that meeting enough dweller's economic needs resulting from the

wealth

needs that the money cannot bring. A good case in point would be that

people

who have a prolonged disease, always wish themselves would be healthy. On in other hand, there are some reasons against the statement that the extra growth in a nation's economy would not make its citizens happier. The top-notch concrete reason is that the financial growth brings out a lot of money that can tackle most of the problems namely the city’s infrastructure, the road system…leading to

people

enjoying a better life quality. It is important to remember that the opportunity for advancing technology

due to

the abundance of property can make

people

easily access a variety of benefits in their lives.

For example

although

the advancing technology applied to medicine cannot save resident’s lives, it can prolong their lifespan beyond their expectation. In conclusion, I partly support economic development in countries with abundant wealth that can still bring happiness to their dwellers.

However

, each of us should consider carefully before reaching the final decision on

this

issue.

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence.

These days, there is a long-term debate on children’s house-leaving themes. While one section of society, including myself, holds the view that young individuals should leave their parents’ home as soon as they reach maturity, others argue that the longer children stay at home, the more beneficial it will be. In this essay, I am going to discuss both of these views and state my personal position.
