I would like to tell you about money and happiness. Some days ago I happened to read a very interesting article. I learnt a lot about a certain man. His name is Mark Larsen. It so happened that suddenly he became a famous person.
I would like to tell you about money and happiness. Some days ago I happened to read a very interesting article. I learnt a lot about a certain man. His name is Mark Larsen. It so happened that suddenly he became a famous person. When he was in a grocery store, he bought a lottery ticket just only for fun. When Mark opened it, he was greatly shocked – he won a million pounds! Maybe, you think now that he is a lucky man – he has become a millionaire. Honestly, I had been of the same opinion before I read the following lines: “I have not got any friends, and I am completely lonely. My life was much better when I didn`t have much money”.

My life was much better when I didn`t have much money”.I thought about his statement. In my head there was only one question: “Does a lot of money really make you happy?”. Many people think that money brings happiness. However, according to Mark`s story, this is not true. I know that the USA is the richest country, but Americans are not the happiest people in the world.

Many people think that money brings happiness. However, according to Mark`s story, this is not true. I know that the USA is the richest country, but Americans are not the happiest people in the world.Very poor and very rich people are unhappier than those who are in between. For example, very poor people live in overcrowded houses without any running water and with no electricity. There are also many millionaires with personal problems. So what can make us happy? You should have one close relationship and some close friends. You should do a little sport and have a lot of contacts with other people. Other people make you happy, not money!
