In what way does money relate with happiness?

There is the ever ongoing debate regarding how money can bring about happiness. Some say that happiness is a state of mind, and it does not depend on what you have.
However I beg to differ. Money brings comfort, which in itself brings about a degree of happiness. What should be discouraged is the dependence on money, not being oblivious to its importance.

Whoever says money does not bring happiness can transfer it to my account. 😎

I'm not sure if I'd say money can objectively buy happiness, but the lack of money can certainly affect it.

You also use money to buy or pay for stuff you enjoy and makes you happy. Otherwise, we wouldn't have cinemas or a games industry, would we?

Well, when you can be able to pay for all the things that you need in life and also take care of your responsibilities, I believe that is going to make you happy. This is the reason why money is always connected to someone's happiness.
