“Money won't buy happiness, but it will pay the salaries of a large research staff to study the problem”

Simplified Meaning:

Having money can't directly make you happy, but it can provide you with resources to explore what might lead to happiness. For example, imagine you have a lot of money. While the money itself won't make you feel joy, you can use it to hire experts, like psychologists or life coaches, who can help you understand what makes you happy. You could also fund scientific studies on happiness, paying researchers to find out what truly brings joy to people. In everyday life, this means using your money wisely to invest in experiences or knowledge that can actually lead to genuine happiness. So, rather than just buying things, using money to gain insights and improve your well-being is a smarter way to seek happiness.
