Maybe yes, maybe no.
Happiness is not externally generated.
Money can make things easier but you can be rich and miserable just the same.

Money gives only luxury , not happiness . Happiness is not what you get , but what you give . Giving not in the physical sense but giving your love to all . Certain things you buy with money may bring temporary happiness . But the real happiness will be coming your way only by living a life without affecting others .

Giving money for happiness is like trying to give someone a glass of fresh air.

Money can make life easier and more comfortable, but happiness is personal and dependent on many other factors, even the richest person can be unhappy just as the poorest person can be happy.

Money doesn't necessarily give happiness in life. But for sure, lack of money brings hardship.

I don't think so.
Money certainly helps but it's not the key!
I know rich people that they are not happy!
The problem is that always something is missing!!!
I am not rich but I don't have financial problems either.
I enjoy what I have materially end emotionally. I'm happy with my mind, my love, my family...
I wish a higher salary :) but this does not affect my happiness..

No. Money is only the means for pleasure. It has nothing to do with happiness.

Not real happiness, not in my opinion.
Money can buy material goods and help feed your sensual appetite, but I have been just as happy without much money. Money doesn't buy time.

yes it does but in an indirect way. What money really buys is free time. If you utilize your free time doing thing that make you truly happy you can say that the money liberated you.

It gets you what you want so that you can be happy. Anyone who says money makes you miserable, I laugh at you. I'll take the money any day and watch you, poor and homeless, on the street. * Points and laughs*

its a cliche
money gives you the freedom to live the life you want, maybe temporary happiness, but probably not true happiness
