Happy people are happy, rich or poor; happiness and money are two separate topics; I agree that things fade away in a while and people with money get into a lot of trouble than the ones with less cash; however, the people with money have financial advisors and assistants to keep them up to date and on the right track. Money is an advantage in a capatllilsitc society, and it’s a powerful one, just like solid bodies for athletics. It's a must to survive, grow and strive, and it’s a medium of transaction no less and no more. It's better to have the upper hand than be the one at the bottom. Especially if someone lives in the game of capitalism; otherwise, they can decide to move somewhere else and have a simpler life 😊 when people are satisfied with what they have they become happy however that is a different story 😊 Have a wonderful day, my friend
