Money often costs too much

Ralph Waldo Emerson
About This Quote

Money often costs too much is a phrase that reflects the widely held belief that you cannot buy happiness. In many ways, this statement is true. If we spend our money on things we really don’t need, we may not be as happy as we could be. However, if we take the time to find out what we really want and then work towards getting it, we may find that happiness does not come at a high price.

For instance, if you want to learn to play the piano, you may think it will take a lot of money. But, you can always start with an inexpensive keyboard and work your way up to something more expensive as your skills improve. You can also change your mind about what you want and what you need and end up saving money.
