In the Declaration of Independence from our founding fathers:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
As we see in the modern days, "extra pleasure of owning these grander homes is muted... added debt to buy the house may make us more anxious; and we may regret sacrificing some leisure. Money can't buy happiness. We ultimately get satisfaction from our relations with family and friends, the love we give or receive, the meaning we find in work, service, religion or hobbies. Happiness depends heavily on individual character and national culture. Some people will complain no matter how great their fortune; others will smile through the worst of times. "
May you find your happiness in life.
