This is true because money is not happiness because poor people are happy and rich people are not because money doesn't buy happyness so I agree

Happiness can mean many different things to all, whether it is material, intellectual, or physical. Happiness takes many different forms depending on our perception, where we come from, how we’re raised and whether we accept our own meaning of what happiness should be. Whether given to us by our parents or anyone else who has influenced our life, we know inside what it should be.
There is nothing we need to be obtain when it comes to happiness, because happiness is not something to gain, buy or find. We spend all our life trying to achieve happiness when happiness is within us. We search in the physical world (i.e. what our eyes perceive) that can not truly make us happy. We forget ourselves completely in this search…when happiness is already with us the minute we are born. The problem is we have been distracted into unnatural preoccupations: money, prestige, power. There for we try to find what we think our happiness is, based on what has been imposed to us by society economically, politically, and morally. Then we find ourselves after someone’s approval, pursuing success through any circumstances, fitting in with the “popular” crowd, trying to find happiness through someone else. When all we have to do is remember who we really are inside and follow our intuition when it comes to making decision on our own and take the courage to move with things that makes us happy.
