Wealth and Happiness
Everybody wants to get wealthy. Today, making money or becoming wealthy symbolizes a person's success and capability. Many people try to make money at all costs. They claim that wealth can bring everything they want.
人人都希望获得财富。如今，挣钱或富裕象征着一个人的成功和能力。许多人不惜一切代价挣钱。他们声称，财富能为他们带来一切想要的东西。
In my opinion, people cannot do anything without money, but money is not everything. What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, then money is a good thing to you. With it, you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country， and it will bring you happiness as well. If you want money to buy large apartments and luxury cars to keep up with others, or to pursue your materialistic enjoyment, you'll never get the true happiness and even lose some happiness you once owned.
我认为，没有钱人们什么也干不成，但金钱并不是万能的。金钱能给你带来什么，这取决于你生活中的个人信仰和目标。如果你心地善良、乐于助人，尤其是乐于帮助穷人，那么金钱对你而言是一个好东西。有了它，你就能为人民和国家谋利，它也会给你带来幸福。如果你总想着和别人攀比，用钱去购买更大的公寓或豪华的汽车，或者去追求物质享受，那么你便无法得到真正的幸福，甚至还会失去自己曾经拥有的快乐。
In a word, money is a double-edged sword for happiness. You should have enough money spent for more people, only then can money be the source of your happiness.(170words)
总之，金钱对于幸福是一把双刃剑。你的钱应该花在更多人身上，只有那样，金钱才能成为你幸福的源泉。
