                                       It is rightly said that, ‘health is wealth’. Among the various constituents which can contribute to good health and happiness, money is also one. At the same time, though money is one of the derivatives for constituting a good health and thereby promoting all in all a sense of happiness but, at the same time, money is not the sole constituent in this regard.

                                       Yes, it is true that, money is one of the variants with regards to promoting health and happiness. Among these constituents which promotes good health and happiness money’s role is unique. Money’s role is neumaro uno in promoting good health and happiness but its role is not sin-qua-non in this regard. The role of money as a constituent of good health and happiness must be analysed from a neutral perspective. Health and happiness have more to do with the positive faculties of the mind than any other factors. Most of the time in a person’s life money is in plenty but he may not have the much-desired health and happiness.

                                          Thus, health and happiness are certainly a part of life which is mostly divine in nature. The role of money in promoting good health and happiness is mostly divine in nature. Possessing good health and happiness is mostly the divine qualities of a person’s life then, being a worldly thing. Yes, money can usher in happiness in a person’s life but it is not all pervasive in nature in this regard. Money in this sense cannot be all in all in this behalf. More then money most of the times, the positive faculties of the mind, as well as, the promoters of it has more important role to play in one’s mind as far as promoting good health and happiness are concerned.

                                              Health and happiness have more to do with the psychology and the positive mindset of a person. Money can certainly play the role of positive stimulant and thereby playing its own pivotal role in this regard. Coupled with it, it may be said that, most of the time money may prove out to be a deterrent. Money can bring about the much-needed psychological stimulant in one’s life but, at the same time but not the all in all role in one’s life. Most of the time money loses its shine before divinity.

                                                  All in all, it can be said that, money is one of the constituents of good health and happiness. But, at the same time, it is not the only or the unique constituent for good health and happiness. Money’s role in promoting good health and happiness is quite pivotal. At the same time, money cannot be the be all and the end of all in such a scenario. The role of money in promoting good health and happiness in a nut shell, is one of the paths to follow in a person’s life but, at the same time is certainly is not the only path to imbibe upon in this regard.
