Even if people argue that Money is not everything that one needs in order to remain happy but scarcity/absense of money may land one up into trouble which may not be a happier way to live the same life. You need money to put down your hunger, you need money to raise your social status, you need money to pay for medical expenses, you need money to improve your quality of life because afterall not everyone are born sadhu-s who can think "sacrific should be the motto of life and enriching the soul is more important than being materialistic about earthly pleasures". So I would say that Money can get us a lot of things which in turn makes us feel happy.
