As is illustrated in the above picture, for some people money means everything. In their eyes money is the resource of happiness. They believe that with money they can buy beautiful houses, deluxe (豪华的)cars, high social status, and a life of high standard and security. For them a life without money will be meaningless.

Surely, money brings us convenience and comfort and even respect, but money can also make evils. As has been proved, it’s the insatiable(贪得无厌的) desire for money that drives many people to cheat and steal. It’s money that corrupts officials and turns brothers against each other. It’s money that undermines social morality.

From my point of view, money is an important element of happiness, but happiness means far more than money. Happiness is the sense of satisfaction after you accomplish a difficult task, or help a person in trouble. Happiness is the sense of clear conscience and integrity(正直) which money cannot buy.
