We have all heard that more money does not make us happy. Helps low income, but just do not do middle class, not money much, much happier. When the Beatles sang many years ago, money can not buyLove. And money can not buy happiness either. Even Henry Ford said he was happier if it were a mechanical work. All her money will not buy much happiness.
