Can money make a person happy?

 In reality money is what brings the happiness. Lots of people are saying that money can't bring happiness because you will have fake friends and fake lives or whatever, if you have friends before you get rich or hit the lotto would they then be considered as fake friends? I don't think so, and why would anyone be naive enough to fall for a fake friend and not notice. Some say the love and happiness will be fake but so what? That person is still happy right? I'm sure no one will be happy living in a dump or the streets. Take a homeless person for example, do you guys think they are happy where they are at? No food and no shelter and no where to go. Lots of people say rich people have a bad rep, there are millions of rich people and I'm very certain at least one of them don't. Wouldn't you want to get all you're loved ones the things they desire and see them happy? Wouldn't you want to get you're son or daughter a nice car or get you're daughter or girlfriend a beautiful dress? Yes those are all just luxuries that fulfills ones desire. To obtain happiness is to obtain ones desire. There are many wealthy people that have died happy, everyone just looks at the ones that didn't. Money "CAN" buy happiness.
