Money cant buy happiness but being broke can make us downright miserable.
I have some retired relatives who with lack of savings (they didnt save money) and poor planning later with expensive health problems added are downright misterable now every bill a challenge, its depressing to see them.
Of course the half glass empty Dem will claim this study proves we need more progressives taxes.

Who buys? You can rent and upgrade when a new model comes out.

It might make you happy for a while, but when you can have whatever you want, nothing makes you happy and you start trying things you shouldn't.
Look at hollywood. Look at high paid sport figures and music industry. Ever wonder why homosexuals on average make more money than any other class group? It seems the only ones who survive are those grounded in strong faith. Even they sometimes can't handle it. With money and fame goes your soul.

This is so very obviously true, as we can easily see that with lots of money, we can have true happiness with possessions like titanium straws and red toilet paper.

“Money can’t buy happiness”...that’s what rich people tell poor people so they won’t fell so bad.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Instead of happiness I’d be ok with just a little cherring up.

Money can’t buy happiness but it does provide a sturdy platform from which happiness can be achieved.

Money cant buy happiness but being broke can make us downright miserable.I like this quote as I recall it from Joe Louis, "I don't like money, actually, but it settles my nerves."

Money can buy food, shelter, transportation, health insurance, internet access, contributions, donations, cooperation, etc. But it might take not having money to know the happiness it can bring.

I have been rich and I have been poor. Rich is better. I have been fat and I have been thin. Thin is better. I have been young and I am getting older. Older is definitely better.

Older is definitely better. SSSSHHHHHHH! You're not supposed to TELL anybody that.
Our secret is out. Dang it.
And how can I omit... money can buy grand pianos, cool guitars, hot wheels, good single malts, and sticks.
