It can the average person will have lots of fun with money wether it be spent on holidays cars life experiences etc.
A lot of people think that being rich will make them happy. The most obvious and biggest advantage of being rich is not needing a job. Yet, the few rich people that I know, that are jobless, are still not happy... at least not openly happy. Even if they are happy, it is not because their money made them happy.
Sure, there are a lot of people who enjoy earning money, yet they might not have much money or not be happy with their money that they already earned. I have a particular greedy friend who fits this description perfectly. I noticed that these types of people have much more satisfaction talking about how much money they earned, overtime hours collected, or money saved; rather than just being happy with their money. As a result, I think that the happiness from greed of wealth is very temporary, because greedy people can never have enough money.
There are other types of people who are very materialistic. I have several friends that continuously buy new toys (such as a new car, computer, camera, electronics, etc.) and lavish entertainment expenses (such as vacations, dinner at expensive restaurants, etc.) way more often than their actual needs or long term affordability. These people always appear to thoroughly enjoy their new toys yet continuously have little or no savings. Unfortunately, their new toys quickly become not so new any more, and a new toy is needed to feel temporarily happy again. In actuality, this is more of a distraction from the really important things in life, and not true happiness or contentment.
Therefore, money can not buy happiness. True happiness is what people do with their life, their family, their friends, and everyone's health. Money is a means to do more and live longer, yet quantity is seldom better than quality.
Is anyone familiar with Roy Noble? If not he made a quote that has since stuck with me, it's as followed ''Anyone who says money cant buy happiness doesn't know where to shop''. I find this most true as I feel a whole lot happier with money than without, mostly as a result of what one can buy it. Though this may not be true for all, anyone who says money cant buy happiness can not answer for all and therefor the statement is false!

Happiness is better than money?
Money is better than happiness, because when you're family's sick, and you have money, you can fix them, take care of them, and all those things, but if you don't have money you'll not be able to fix them, so no happiness will be there. Unless your living in the UK where the NHS will take care of you, free of charge!

Why money cant buy you happiness?
If money buys people happiness, then Princess Diana should have been the happiest person in the world. She had jewels, cars, palaces, ball gowns, was married to a Prince, travelled where she wanted, had ships for trips, went to parties, ate the best food, knew the best people, was famous, but was she happy? No, she wasn't. There is more to life than "things" life is far richer when you appreciate the little things, the sunsets, the snowy mountains, playing in the snow and walking on the beach, having love. These are the things that count.
