The greed for money and enjoyment is not happiness (original)

Money is only a necessary condition for a happy life,

< p> does not necessarily mean happiness,

Having someone is the real greatest happiness,

No matter how much money you have but no one, you have nowhere to spend it,

Because the places where individuals can spend their money are ultimately limited.

In terms of personal material life alone,

Money is just used to exchange for various items.

If a person can have any item he desires without any difficulty,

Human beings cannot live without spiritual life.

People who are rich in material life but empty in spiritual life will not have real happiness.

This cannot be bought with money.

Spending a lot of money will actually reduce the quality of life,

make people indulge in material enjoyment,

and drift away from the true meaning of life.

It is difficult for a person who loves money very much to love his children very much at any time.

The greed for money and enjoyment is not happiness.
