No one can reach the state of perfect happiness unless he brings his covetous heart and mind under complete control. So long as he seeks his happiness in the satisfaction of his desire for material gains, he will never find it. It will be just an elusive dream. It is humanly impossible to obtain everything one wishes, since insatiability is the very nature of craving.

I think it's depend of the person. Some people believe that only gaining material things can makes them happy. More money they can gain and spend more happy they feel. But this is short therm happiness ans they want more and more all the time. Some people wants to find love of that lives, have a family be happy in emotional aspect of life and kind of happiness or seeking that kind of happiness got more sense to me.

Yes I think too, many people have the mistaken idea that they can solve all their problems with money. While money is necessary for one to lead a comfortable life in modern society, it does not always solve one's problems. Not only that, it also creates new problems as well.
