How many times have we heard repeated that happiness does not depend on how much money or wealth that each of us has?

Probably many times, and in truth, this concept is much more than a simple proverb, or a way to recover and console oneself if one does not have many opportunities for economic success.

In fact, money can often bring out the worst side of human beings. Furthermore, money can be connected to an ever-increasing avidity of those individuals who have it but always want more, not to mention that it can create divisions, irregularities, disagreements, and hatred.

Having said that, it is certainly true that having money is useful to improve various aspects of life. But, it is also true that, with a little imagination and determination, beauty and happiness can be found even where there is not a lot of money or even no money at all.

The 16 photos that we have collected below show just this! Be surprised and excited to discover them, always remembering that money can buy everything, except happiness!
