In this quote, Bob Truman is pondering the common saying that “money can’t buy happiness.” The best interpretation is that while money alone may not directly make someone happy, it certainly provides the means to acquire most other things that can bring enjoyment and fulfillment in life. Truman acknowledges that basic human wants and needs are the root of much of people’s motivations.
While money cannot buy true happiness, it allows one to satisfy many wants and needs through purchasing goods, services, and experiences. So in Truman’s view, money may not directly buy happiness but it can buy “everything else” that enables happiness, such as comfort, leisure activities, relationships, health, and peace of mind by removing financial stresses. He seems to be challenging the simple notion that wealth cannot improve quality of life.

Warren Buffett: Buy Farm for Years
on Monday, March 22, 2021Warren Buffett Money Quote saying short-term thinking doesn’t lead anyone to invest in long-term assets. Warren Buffett said:
“Nobody buys a farm based on whether they think it’s going to rain next year. They buy it because they think it’s a good investment over 10 or 20 years” — Warren Buffett

Short Link to this Quote:
Warren Buffett is saying that when people invest in farms, they don’t do it based on whether they think it will rain the following year and help crop yields. Instead, they buy farms as a long-term investment because over many years, farms tend to appreciate in value or generate income from crops/livestock.
His point is that people shouldn’t take a short-term view when investing, but rather consider an investment’s potential over 10-20 years or more. By owning a farm for its long-term value, short-term weather fluctuations won’t sway the investor’s view of whether it was a good investment.
