Money does bring happiness no question. The problem is the pursuit of money. Herein lies the corruption of the heart. But to work hard for it and not compromise yourself or family, then money is great.

Money, to most, is not only what can possibly bring happiness but also a tool to secure stability in life. Need good food? Nice clothes? Money is a general means to cause satisfaction and, therefore, happiness. Also, in time of sickness, financial instability, crisis, etc, the big m can help maintain a person's current lifestyle.
This is true to a certain extent but not always. There are things that money can't buy and instability is just one of life's inevitable unwelcome guests. Even the wealthiest person in the world can get heart-broken or even an emperor can suffer from a life-threatening disease. Money can help alleviate some of these problems but, in a lot of cases, wealth accumulation is over-rated.
Now- happiness, while nice to have, it's just- like everything else- not lasting. The more one clings to happiness the more one is going to suffer once happiness is gone. Just like a token-- double-sided, happiness' illusive counterpart is none but unhappiness itself.
Verdict: Neither is what one should cling on to.
