Many of us dream of having thousands and thousands of dollar to spend on what we desire

　　We can buy lottery tickets, enter contests or spend hours building a business or invest in the

　　stock market. We are sure that when we have plenty of money, we will be happy

　　While having some money does have an impact on our level of happiness, having a lot of

　　money does not. It is reported that Americans whose income goes from $20,000 a year to $50,000

　　a year are more likely to be happy. But beyond $50,000, happiness does not increase as salaries

　　go up. It is because we are never satisfied. Catherine Sanderson, a psychology professor at

　　Amherst College says, "We always think if we just had a little more money, we’d be happier. But

　　when we get there, we are not."

　　Daniel Gilbert, a psychology professor at Harvard notes,"The more you make, the more you

　　want. The more you have, the less it brings you joy. We incorrectly assume we’Il get more

　　pleasure from more, and we don’t."

　　The things money can buy don't make you happy either. A lot of research suggests that you

　　won't find the "good life" buying expensive "toys". You finally buy that BMW you've always

　　wanted and it soon loses its appeal. Then, instead of wondering if a new car is what really makes
