Money can buy happiness is true in the sense of fulfilling a requirement for obtaining the need(s) to experience a happy outgoing life. A person may need an operation to improve their own health and afterwards would be able to seek happiness as the current moment is dread by the variables of requiring the procedure. Further, the person can only obtain the course of action needed with a sum of finances they lack. Another person may fit the same scenario but have the finances and can place themselves on the path of happiness sooner which may be better than later. I see this in the transgender community a lot. People debate it all the time because of discomfort towards the idea that finances are a factor in obtaining vs not in having a happy life.
