Hi rairaichan0323 ,

I guess you misunderstand the topic , the topic is ;

money brings happiness; this is defined already, so you not need to discuss about this.

will extra money cause problems or not?
extra money means after all your expenses , if you have some money what you do? is it benefit or drawback.

you have done this but you should mention with word like, extra money, disposable income, savings from salary, extra earnings...and use it appropriately.

I changed your first supporting paragraph.

First of all, extra money can remove the barrier for people confronting with living difficulties. Having an extra income enables individuals to buy whatever they like and enjoy good standard of living. A man, for example, able to save money after his expense will enable him in the future to buy well-structured house to live with immense happiness. This makes it clear that people would feel blissful when they are living in a comfortable environment with disposable income in their hand.

In short, four sentences in one paragraph.

1st sentence: tell how extra money is benefit
2nd sentence: expand your reason form first point.
3rd sentence : give example support of 2nd sentence( example should be very similar 2nd sentence.
4th sentence: what is the result of extra money.( positive or negative, in this case it is positive)


grammar part, if want band 7 , you need to write more complex structures, means , different clauses. I would recommend to use at least 2 noun clause, 2 adverbial clause and 2 relative clause.

your introduction is not clear, you said there is pleasant environment without money, that means you can enjoy your life without money , that contradicts your whole essay.

sorry to say, if you write same response for this question, you end up in band 5.5 or 6.
