Money has always played a very major role in bringing happiness, but it has its limitations. The power of money in evreyones lives is unquestionable. After all, why does most of the people work and work hard. Its for money. The more money a person has, or a company has, or a country has, the more reputed and successful it is.
That brings me to another point. In today's society, the fatter ur paypacket, the better u r placed in soceity.I remember about a term called "Quasimodic Effect", which means the healing effect that buying does on a person's mental health at that moment. It is observed, tht generally people feel much better after shopping, a sense of contentment comes in.
But, here comes the paradox.
If what all i said was so much true, and happiness was just a slave to money why does the super rich society has so much discontent, cases of depression, suicides, high risk behaviour.
That means there is something wrong with the notion.
Enough of anything is bad, and that applies to money also
Which brings about a thought, that happiness is actually the state of mind at a transient moment. One moment u feel u r happy, the next u feel u r not.

So, happiness in a sense is peace of mind.
All in all, i feel money very well plays a role in happiness,but only to an extent.After that, its just ur state of mind.
what do u think?
Money can buy happiness as long as it's something you really desire like an object. But money can't buy emotions like love or hate...neither can it bring peace it your life. Money is deifintely a necessity, but it doesn't guarantee that you will be happy if you don't have it. There are many people who are rich, but can't use it because they are disabled of something like a disease..so at that time..what help is that money doing? On the other hand, there are people who don't have enough money, but they are living life very peacefully. So money can't buy happiness.
