Money can buy you things that make you happy but happiness as a feeling, no money can not buy that, that has to come from within. Example, if you love to cook and see a great cookware set and you buy it, that can make you happy. If your a fisherman and want to live on a boat, that can make you happy. Money is related to material things. Yes, you can donate money and feel good that you helped a cause but eventually that money buys something for someone. Happiness is a state of chi, inner peace, that can only be achieved if you see the beauty in your inner and outerself and that which is around you, without fear,judgement or anger. Not to say you can't be afraid, or you can't judge or be mad, but inner peace will not be felt, if you are consistantly in those states.

True, but really the phrase should be, "Money can be exchanged for things that generate happiness". Money ITSELF is useless, just plastic or metal, but its exchanged for things like food, clothes, entertainment, etc which creates happiness.

I dont know when I get my cheque at the end of the month im pretty pleased. The saying Money cant buy happiness applies to very few people.
Money can potentially buy happiness but only if the person with the money knows hes priorities and what makes him or her happy. If you do not know what happiness is and what makes you happy than you cannot buy it for you would not know what to buy.

Why is it true happiness cannot be bought with money?

It is true that happiness cannot be bought with money because money can create pleasure but that is only momentary happiness. Money can give you a bed but not sleep, money can give you medicine but not health, money can buy a diamond ring but not love. Therefore money is important. It can give us food, clothing and shelter but money is not the ultimate tool for happiness. We must understand that you cannot get happiness, you have to be happy. And you don't need money to be happy, you need to learn the art of happiness, you need to learn to live moment by moment with bliss and joy. We need to understand the source of happiness. If we chase happiness like we chase success, money, name and fame then like a shadow, happiness will go further away. Therefore money cannot buy happiness and while money is important, happiness can be attained by learning the art of being happy.
