Money does not buy happiness, especially when it is in small quantities

If you have no money to buy a dollar picture
draw one
Let's begin this series of proverbs with one that I like in particular: "Money does not buy happiness, especially when it is in small quantities". The reason I like it is simply that I helped making it !

As you may have noticed, the first part of the proverb is pretty well known with several versions like "Money does not make happiness" or "Money does not bring happiness" that express in fact the idea that one cannot be happy only with money. But since the word "only" has been omitted, I took advantage of that and added this awesome second part that completely changes the meaning by putting emphasis on the amount of money one is willing to put on the table to have happiness in return. Well, happiness is still not guaranteed with a lot of money, but with practically no money I can assure you that achieving happiness will not be a piece of cake.

See you tomorrow for the next Proverb.
