Money= happiness??

Recently
I have some questions,because I hear something.
Money can’t buy happiness.
But money plays an important role in our life.
Although money can’t replace wealthy,friendships and so on.
But the much money you own,the more happiness you own.I think that if we have much money,we will get more happiness and respect.
And how much money do you need to be happy?
For more person,the answer is more.

The first,money brings respect and approval from others.In the world,more people think that if you make much money and you will be a successful person.

Secondly,if we have money,we can choose the better life which we want to live.We can live in a great surrounding and we can choose the anything by ourself.

So,these thing can bring our security and happiness.
