Any other solution besides god?

I don't think money itself is what creates happiness, but rather the result of money. If I had 2045995876934 dollars, and couldn't do anything with it, I wouldn't be happy. If i had 0 dollars and could do anything I wanted, I would be happy. Or would I?

It seems to me that happiness is a proccess rather than a state. I'm just throwing this out there as I've just thought about it right now. You don't get to happiness, because once you're happy, it's in the past. Whatever made you happy is in the past, so you need something else to make you happy. Maybe, maybe not, it all depends on what you see as being happy. Are you being happy or are you at happy?

Though maybe I'm mistaking happiness with fun. Fun equals happiness, but happiness does not always equal fun.
