I know that having money is important to be happy but it’s not fundamental. The happiness is first of all a spirit minded who depends where we place the cursor.
In a materialistic society, it is necessary to have a minimum of money to live correctly, especially when the welfare system is not really developed. Without money, you cannot leave anywhere you want and it’s not very easy to have a social life because many activities are not free. In fact, you are limited by your means. Of course, money may not buy happiness but it helps to leave correctly.
But, often, when you have money, you are looking for to have more and more. It’s never ending. You have a lot of things but it’s always not enough. You become unhappiness because you don’t have this or this thing.
In reality, in the two situations you’re not satisfied : but, as for me,when you have not enough money, the life is objectively more difficult. All the time, you need to make choice : you’re permanently stressed with increased mental workload and your choices are reduced. When you have money, I think that your issues are not vitals but superficials. They are not insurmontable and you can easely life with them. On the contrary, When you have money issues, they polite your spirit and create many fears that prevent you from moving.
