rich? or happy?

everyone today is so busy.... even kids are so busy!!!
they aren't even out of their mommies womb and everyone starts deciding as to what the baby would be in future.. which nursery,school the infant would go to!! what career he/she should choose...
everyone is in a hurry!!
everyone wants the best and wants to the best in life... but wait and think.. all this running around.... all this competition.... why are you doing this?
is it for a safe future? for your kids or your future family? why?
do you want to be rich or happy??

i was bored and normally when iam bored i just google search stuff and read about things... or news anything.. so i typed one day...
i typed : i want to be... and i paused... as usual google came up with a series of options to complete my sentence...
the first option that came up was... "i want to be rich"
the second option.. "i want to be happy"
my mind was in a dilemma... should i go with rich? or should i go with happy?
i still haven't really been able to figure out that part...
i would love to be happy and rich....
but does that fairytale stage even exist?
i haven't really come across anyone who says that they are rich& happy.. or content with their lives... all want better things in life.. if you have a two bedroom house.. you want three bedrooms... or a bunglow.. !!
but does all of this really matter??
would you really be happy if you had a huge bunglow.. but no one except you to stay ? no friends to come over?
or get married to someone who is so focused on their job that they hardly give you time.. is all this struggle, competition worth it?
its very difficult to strike a balance between the two.. very rarely people get that right..
it actually depends on each one of us... do we want to be happy? or rich? or perhaps both?
