Formal Outline
I changed my topic as in the discussion I realized my previous topic would be hard to write about as it'd be harder to describing my meaning of the situation. I will now write my essay on if money buy can happiness.
Thesis: Money is a huge part of our lives whether we have lots or nearly none of it. It changes our lives immensely as we come across it everyday. Money pays for the clothes on our back, the shelter we live under and the food on the table. Having money can make people centered on how rich they may be. It can also make people selfish and greedy or even lose your perspective.
Paragraph 1:

Paragraph 3:

Paragraph 4:
