Giving people money to rise them out of poverty does but happiness
Greedily accumulating wealth after you have enough money for anything you could have ever needed doesn’t

While money doesn’t literally buy happiness, it does get rid of 95% of the things in life that cause unhappiness like paying for food, shelter, clothing and bills.

I’m not sure but spending my money on park rides definitely buys happiness for me, instead of having no money and just thinking how I can survive this month. Nearly everything nowadays is monetized, sure you could go for a bike ride and picnic, buy bike, buy food, still some money investment.
