At last! Naboo, you have taken this to the most important point.
Wealth does not bring happiness.
Would you rather be poor and happy or rich and unhappy? (Rich and happy not available at this time, please call back later!)
Happiness is also dependant on the decisions you make and there are as many chances to get it wrong making it exponentially harder to be both rich and happy.
I passionatley agree with your final line though; I considered religion in that but then realised that it was the love of money that made religion evil.
(caveat: I intend a huge difference between "religion" and "faith" with faith being the personal level. Phew!))
