Money may buy you the means to a happiness, but it cannot buy happiness itself.

About This Quote

Money may buy you the means to a happiness, but it cannot buy happiness itself. This quote demonstrates that money will not make someone happy. However, it does suggest that people can find happiness in their own way. Happiness is something that is found within the person because you are the only one who can be happy.

You can’t buy happiness. You can buy happiness by giving money to those who need it or giving support to those who need it. The reason why money can’t buy happiness is because you have to be wealthy enough to want to give the money because you have to be rich enough to be able to afford it.
