"When our attitude towards our material possessions and wealth is not proper, it can lead to an extreme attachment towards such things as our property, houses, and belongings. This can lead to an inabililty to feel contented. If that happens then one will always remain in a state of dissatisfaction, always wanting more. In a way, one is then really poor, because the suffering of poverty is the suffering of wanting something and feeling the lack of it. The sense of contentment is a key factor for attaining happiness. Bodily health, material wealth and companions and friends are three factors for happiness. Contentment is the key that will determine the outcome of your realtions with all three of these factors."
