You've heard it countless times, Money Can't Buy Happiness!
So i guess, poverty does?
This guy gave away his fortune...
Money Can't Buy Happiness, So Man Gives Away Every Penny of His £3 Million Fortune - Neatorama
My take? Money doesn't buy happiness when it is destructive to freedom. Most people use money for material and consumer purposes which is destructive to freedom -- that destruction causes unhappiness.

Money doesn’t buy happiness when it’s misused. Instead of money buying freedom, it buys bondage.
“Wealth” and “happiness” are interchangeable, but only if your definition of wealth hasn’t been corrupted by society’s definition. Society says wealth is “stuff” and because of this faulty definition, the bridge between wealth and happiness collapses. If you don’t feel wealth, you’re likely to try to conjure that feeling. You buy icons of wealth to feel wealth. You crave feelings, respect, pride and joy. You want admiration, love and acceptance. And what are these feelings supposed to deliver? Happiness. And that’s the bait. We equate the corrupted definition of wealth with happiness and when it fails to deliver, expectations are violated and unhappiness creeps in.
