People who do not work because they have money are rarely happy. Do you agree or disagree with this statement. My neighbor is a rich old man who live in a big house, drive a luxurious car and wear name-brand suits, but he has never earned even one dollar through his life. When he inherited the fortune from his father, he thought the huge money could bring him joys and comforts and he did not need to work at all. Time flies, when he becomes an elder man, he always fell empty, no sense of achievement and no aim of life. Now, sorrow, depression and frustration are awash his life. He always tell us how he regrets he did not work when he was young. From the story of my neighbor I strongly hold the claim that people who do not work will rarely obtain real happiness.
On the one hand, although the people who do not work still can maintain a good substantial life, they will fell empty in their spiritual life. We have to recognize that one of the aim of work is to earn money, but, in turn, work will bring us things far beyond money, such as a sense of satisfy, the happiness of success, the respect of others, and the pursue of life, to list just a few. If people who have never worked because they have money, they only can get the things bought by money but they will never fell the happiness beyond money. Moreover, if The pleasures of idleness soon cloy, they may hit some bad habits. For instants, they are indulged in the red wine for forgetting the nonsense of life, they are addicted in drugs for kicks, or they watch some films are gratuitous violence and pornography. If these small bad habits are not controlled in proper ways, they may the source of some heinous crimes. If theses bad habits parallel them towards life of crime, the crime will cast shadow in their life and the happiness of life will vanish forever. On the other hand, if people don’t attend work, they will not experience the hardship of life, namely that they will not know how fantastic their life is. Affluent life makes people more vulnerable. When people who do not work experienced some frustration, they will easily be knocked down. Then they will complain the unfair of life and no courage to live on the world. That is the reason why the survey show us that the rich men, especially who do not work, are more likely get depression. In turn, if people who attend work, they will learn some skills about how to surmount the difficulties, they will know how to face troubles and they can deal with the frustrations easily. When they are in front of difficulties, what they think is how to conquer the difficulties and challenge themselves instead give up life. After they success, they will more cherish the rest life and enjoy the life as much as they can. Only people who has experieced l difficulties, they will know the nature of happiness.

From the discussion above, I can safely draw the conclusion that people who do not work because they have money are seldomly happy.
