The cliché “Money can’t buy happiness” gets beaten up a lot, mainly because of all the things that money can buy that have the ability to bring happiness.  Poverty certainly doesn’t guarantee happiness, but neither does it guarantee misery.

How you feel does not come from what you own, either how much or how little.  The things that make me happy, truly happy, cost relatively little, but are the most precious to me.  They are things that I cannot buy in any store, but any attempt to take them from me would trigger a visceral and violent protection instinct.
