Essay: Money Some people say that you don't need much money to be happy. What do you think? Money has always been considered as a method of trading and we use it in exchange of essential items needed to survive. But nowadays it has become one of the keys of a successful life. If you want to be an influent and respected person, you had to possess a great amount of money. But, does money give us happiness? First of all, we had to admit that money is an indispensable way of satisfying our basic needs. We need goods and services and we can only obtain them through money. Every human being in this world need to earn a salary in order to buy food, clothes and even shelter. But that doesn't mean that we need big wealths. On the contrary, those who have less money are proved to be happier. Secondly, it's certain that money provide us stability and a good standard of living, which allows us to travel for holidays, have medical assistance or good food and education. With money we can purchase entertaining devices too, such as computers and tablets. Some of them are really expensive, but you don't need to have the latest gadgets to be happy, as long as there there are affordable ones out there today. In conclusion, although it is claimed that money brings happiness, I don't agree with this thought. Money is necessary to some extent but there are things more valuable in this world.
