Can Money Buy Happiness?

Can Money Buy Happiness?
  Money becomes very important in one's life. Some people even thinking is the source of happiness. They have the following reasons for this idea. First, they think that they can buy material things with money. Second, they believe that they can live longer if they have money to cure some of their diseases. Their most important reason is that they may travel a lot if they have money.
  However, some other people don't think so. They have evidence to be­lieve that money is the root of evil. One evidence is that some officials com­mit crime for the sake of money. Another evidence that makes them hold this belief is that they saw some people spend money freely and spoil them­selves at last.
  It seems that both of the two kinds of people are right, but I think we should take a dialectic point of view. Money can bring happiness, but it is not the source of happiness. Similarly, while it can cause bad things, it is not the root of evil. What is important is that we should be the master of money, not its slaves.
