To this, Jimmy said, “Does money buy happiness? No, not… I mean, to a point, yes. Once you can take care of your health, you can take care of any immediate dangers, and you can take care of your family. Relatively, no, it doesn’t, but those things do.”

Supporting his ideology, he said, “When I first came into money, one of the first things I did was retire my mom and that brought me tons of happiness, you know what I mean? And if my brother had a medical emergency and we couldn’t afford it, and I made money to afford it, that’d bring tons of happiness, you know?”
He continued, “So once you take care of those basic necessities, so we’ll say make over, hypothetically, a million dollars, no, it really doesn’t. Adding an extra zero, going from 10 million to 100 million, or whatever it is, makes no difference.” It can be imbibed that the young YouTuber understands money to bring/buy happiness till it fulfills basic necessities.
