They say money can't buy happiness, but damn if I'm not downright giddy when I have money.

"Money can't buy everything!
Money can't make you a king.
Money may not bring success;
Money can't buy happiness!

But of one thing I am sure:
Money doesn't make you poor.
Money doesn't make you sad;
Money can't be all that bad!"

from a beginner piano book in the Alfred series.

It may not be able to buy happiness, but it can sure rent a reasonable facsimile...

Yay money! We should make wine now before our money goes away.

"Anybody who tells you money is the root of all evil doesn't fucking have any. They say money can't buy happiness? Look at the fucking smile on my face. Ear to ear, baby...."

Money can most certainly buy happiness. In fact, right this moment, about ten thousand dollars would buy me all the happiness I need. I don't know what the person who came up with "money can't buy happiness" was smoking.

I think what is meant by that is there are things that you need to be happy that money can't buy.

Still, those things aren't hard to get, at least if you have some basic social skills, and live in a place with a climate you can stand and a decent population density (the last part can be fixed with money as well).

Pretty much. Money can't buy love, but basically everything else can be taken care of with money.

It also can't buy health, but it can sure help with treatment.

And even on the love thing, it can help you get out more, and never have to face a long distance relationship.

Yup, so all in all, money's damn good and is extremely useful for getting even that which cannot be bought ;)

Yup, as long as you make sure that you're not selling more than you get.
