In order to (verb) or In order to (verb+ing)? Can anybody please ask me if the both sentenses below are right? And if it is, Why do the verb that comes after the "in order to" is in a different state. Note: the point is "in order to" 1- I did that in order to improve that. 2- I make money in order to having a better life. I hope the question is clear. :)

1- I did that in order to improve that. RIGHT 2- I make money in order to having a better life. WRONG 'In order to' is followed by the verb in its plain infinitive form. The second sentence should be 'I make money in order to HAVE a better life.'
