Money one thing that most people want but, to me its not that important to me and it cant buy me happiness. It really is depending on what kind of happiness though. There is true happiness that can not be bought but can be found by finding someone. Or the other is just trying to be happy. Some people act happy when they really aren't they think that money can make them very happy but really how can you buy happiness. The only think you can buy is objects and they can't bring you real happiness.

It is less that money buys happiness, and more that the lack of money makes reaching happiness more difficult due to the stress of financial insecurity.

Side: no

I wonder why Hollywood stars, people who have millions of dollars, are still experiencing depression, eating disorders, and erratic emotional behaviour...

This isn't really a good argument, is it makes the assumption that the only difference between Average Joe, Esq. and a Hollywood Star is the amount of money they have.

Maybe money isn't an issue for the Hollywood Stars, but what about stress? They're under constant scrutiny and pressure by the public, and are typically lacking in a real support structure. Hollywood relationships are often superficial at best, and observation seems to indicate that extends to friendships as well, and even family- look at the disgusting way parents have fought over the wealth of child stars, time and time again?

A lack of money has also been observed to be a significant factor in depression, eating disorders, and any number of issues amongst the lower economic classes.

I'll agree that money can't buy happiness, but lack of money can definitely be an obstacle to achieving happiness- and feeling financially secure is something that should not be underrated.

Of course no , you can not buy friends with your money , you can not buy your health with your money . also you can not buy your happiness with your money. You can look around , you may see a rich man with out friends and family so his money will not help him in this sorrowful situation. -_-"
