Having more is great, up to a certain point.

I think that point is probably after you can buy everything that you ever wanted for yourself, and still have some left afterward. After that, unless you actually hire someone to spend your money for you, or you learn to want bigger and more expensive things, you are turning the economic flow from a perpetual circulation into a one-way dead end.
