The expression "to be happy is to make a fortune" is relatively simple and direct. This view mainly emphasizes the importance of wealth to personal happiness. However, the relationship between happiness and wealth is not completely consistent. Although wealth can provide economic security and meet material needs, it is not the only source of happiness.
In fact, people's happiness may be affected by many factors, including family, interpersonal relationship, health, personal achievement, social participation and so on. Many studies have shown that non-material factors such as interpersonal relationship, personal growth and self-realization have an important influence on happiness.
