I read this on one of the forum and thought I would share it here:

answer was pretty similar to the fisherman in the story below.

Nice Story - Without The Finances The Fisherman Can Only Fish But If His Finances Permit Him, He Can Spend His Time Deep-Sea-Diving,Flying, Mountain Climbing, Racing Or Doing Anything He Desires - His Options Increase Many-Fold :)

@erabaque, definitely money is a tool, but I think real happiness is spending quality time and enjoying with your family and money has nothing to do with it. It always occur to me that if I have 1 Million Dollars and don't have my wife, kids and mother would I be happy, hell no... I would be much happier if I earn enough to take care of my family.
