    Honestly, that’s one of the dumbest sayings ever. It’s simply not true.

    Money buys every item you need on your hierarchy of needs: food, shelter, safety, it increases your chances at a relationship, helps you realise your goals, etc. etc. And the more money you have, the better your needs will be met. Nicer house, better neighbourhood, healthier foods, more leisure time…

    And that’s not even talking about the actual fun things it buys: LEGO sets, jet skis, a Ferrari, a gold Rolex. They might be material, but I’ve never seen someone depressed on a jet ski.
