At present, money is a source of motivation for someone to do anything. Working to get large amounts of money, using superstitious methods, to marry children or rich people even though they have far age differences are ways that are still widely used by our society today.

With hope, the money generated can bring happiness. By following the changing trends and lifestyles today. Money is the main source to get all the things you want.

Is it true that having large amounts of money can make someone feel happier?

The answer depends. Yes and no. If we refer to Abraham Maslow's theory of needs it will be very easy to answer.

According to Maslow, humans are motivated to fulfill their needs. This need has a level and hierarchy. Here is the hierarchy of needs expressed by Maslow.

Physiological needs
The need for security
Social needs
Need for awards
The need for self-actualization
There are two major things that are most striking from the above theory. First, when one needs is successfully satisfied, one will stop fulfilling that need. This is the basic requirement that must first be met. That is physiological needs. You will stop eating and drinking when you are full and satisfied.

But, there are other needs that must be fulfilled continuously. This need has a major role and influence on an individual. Starting from learning speed, adjustment, work productivity, physical and mental health and many other benefits.

Answering the question above, can having a large amount of money make someone happy?

Yes, if the person is still focused on meeting his physiological needs. Like eating, drinking and living. Obviously, money can make them happy.

But different from people who have been able to meet their physiological needs. Money is not the main thing to feel happy. There are other things besides money that can make them happy like social relationships and rewards.

Returning to the topic, talking about happiness and money, here are some reasons why money can't make you happy:

1. Temporary Pleasure
   Indeed when buying a new item someone will definitely feel happy and happy. Especially if it is balanced with a well-known brand. It will definitely add to their confidence when dealing with other people.

Happiness will increase when someone gives a compliment "wow your cellphone is new, how much is it? How does it feel compared to those of X? What are the advantages? "And other questions about cellphones, for example. This praise will increase happiness and trust him.

Happiness above is like a moment of pleasure. It is difficult to maintain and fade over time. It takes a proper understanding that happiness does not originate from new items.

There are special technical and ways to make someone happy for a long time. It's not about money. Unless you are currently focused on meeting your
physiological needs.

1. Conditions for False Blessings
   Is the condition for you happy is money by having material you like? If money is a condition for your happiness, it will be increasingly difficult for you to feel happy. You will be happy if you can buy the item. If you can't have it, you won't feel happy.

Many people set the wrong conditions for happiness. They assume that money can make them happy. They set difficult conditions for them to be happy.

Why not make the terms easier to feel happy. For example, passing time with your partner. Look for conditions that you can easily achieve. So that you are easy to be happy.
