Model 7 Can Money Buy Happiness?

There are people who think that money can buy happiness. It is true that with enough money one can buy all the things one wants，and live a life of comfort and security. And it is equally true that la

ck of money causes great distress.

However，it is a common view that “money is the root of all evil.” The pursuit of money drives many people to cheat and steal. In some places there is nothing that cannot be bought with money，resulting in corrupt societies where everybody is miserable.

In my opinion，if we make honest and sensible use of money it can be a stepping-stone to happiness. If we earn money lawfully we can be proud of our achievement in gaining wealth. But we must also put our money to good use，so that it benefits not only ourselves but our fellow-man as well. Thus，my conclusion is that although money cannot buy happiness，it can make happiness possible if it is employed sensibly.
