What? Money absolutely CAN buy happiness. What do you even talk about?

Probably all of the current problems in my life could be solved with money.

Nah, money can buy pleasure, security, confidence, comfort... but happiness is not necessarily a consequence of that. Some rich people live a very unhappy life. I wouldn't trade places with them for their money.

CAN you be happy because you have money? Yeah, why not. WILL you be happy if you have money? No guarantees at all.

The old joke is that money can't buy happiness, but it certainly can rent it for a while.

Or a more modern tweet, money can't buy happiness but it's more comfortable to cry in a mercedes.
