In a way I think it does because you can't buy things you like without it. Besides family and friend values, of course.

If I had 20 Mill I think I would be pretty happy. Wouldn't have to work and would just do whatever I want all day.

Accumulation of money does give one happiness, however, the happiness is only temporary. Their happiness that originated from financial gain will dissipate gradually.

A wide scale study showed that the wealthiest countries have a higher frequency of major depression than low income countries. Another study showed that privileged teens have a higher frequency of being depressed than the less privileged.

No. We've all seen people with money that aren't happy. Many think 'oh I have money I can buy whatever I want' but the reality is without people to enjoy those items with they are worthless. I think friends=happiness.

Money does not bring happiness. Once you get money you become greedy and then everyone hates you.

Money does buy happiness, but it can't buy happiness with your family and friends. I would say there's two different types if happiness.

I think money brings happiness. Just my opinion, everyone's lives end up differently, just because someone's life isn't so great even though they are rich, doesn't mean you won't have a happy life rich.

I think it does to an extent.
If you earn your own money, and buy something you really want. That will make you happy, at least for the time being. But if you have more money, that is just given to you. You will be less humble, and all around less happy.

I think money can temporarily make you happy, but in the long run I don't really think that it makes you happy.

For me, money does give happiness. This is different for other people. Money always puts a spring in my step, and whenever I know I have that extra cash, I always seem to be happier than normal.

It does in a way as much as it doesn't, you just don't notice it.

"Money can’t buy happiness, but that shit can support it,
‘Cause what’s a family of five if you can’t even afford it?"

In other words, money does not equal happiness, but it is an essential in life and does help in life.

In todays society I think money does buys happiness, but only temporary. My belief Is that happiness comes from love and family, the friends you make, also the experiences you have in your life. Now I`m guessing someone may disagree with me but that's just fine, cause ain't we all free to our own opinion.
