Mrs. March said,"Money is a good and useful thing, Jo, and I hope my girls will never feel the need of it too bitterly, nor be tempted by too much" The happiness between material goods and happiness in being genuine are quite different. Material goods are things that could be destroyed, stolen, or temporary things that can be used up and worn out. Genuine happiness is being happy with the people you love and the people you respect without having to have material goods. With genuine happiness all you need are people you love and people that you want to be around because you are truly happy when you're with them.
