Not directly.

But you can use money to eliminate anxiety, get nice clothes, have better friends, lead a more interesting life, and be a better person. For most people this is enough to be happy.

I just walked for free through some nice parks and ritzy houses. That was free and made me happy.

On the other hand, money meant I had food and water beforehand, as well as a simple, cheap hovel to return to.

What this guy said.
Money doesn´t buy you happiness. It brings you freedom, and more (of the right kind of) freedom usually brings you more happiness.

If you become ill you can pay the most world-renowned doctors to perform a surgery on you.

Now that's not something the average person can afford to miss out on.

If there were happy pills or surgeries to alter your brain in order to make you naturally satisfied and positive, then yeah.

Maybe there is, but it's kept top secret and only the rich billionaires know about it.

A little money buys a treat, to please you for a day.
A little more buys a roof under which your things you lay.
But good money, that gives you stability.
And only when you're stable can you truly be happy.
