Does money really bring happiness?

It all depends upon the my, morals and values of the person with the money. Money cannot buy happiness becuase Happiness lives in each of us. It all depends on what makes you happy. For instance my husband and children make me happy, so what could mon ey do if I'm already happy? Well seeing them smile makes m e happier so we would take vacations, enjoy good food, see exotic places. I would not spoil them, because there s no returning from that just look at Paris Hilton. Spoiling is not love. Granted they would not walk around like raggedy anne and andy, but I would install my virtues and morals in them. Could I be happy driving a 2008 lincoln navigator ,oh yes! But I appreciate my 98 jeep. But I could see donating money to help others as well, especially the public school systems. Some rich people go to a poor land and take one lucky kid home, one out 60, its like a kiddie lottery, granted its a great thing to do, but what if thwy donated time and money to make these places better. But I have a disheartment about that as well I feel people in the USA are starving and homeless. We should start our sacrifices at home. Also in my mind sticks with money comes GREED, and greed is evil. Everyone of us has that little greedy goat that sits on our shoulders.Money can make happiness if you spend wisely. Happiness starts from within you.
