* Drag the correct answer into all target fields

The concept that money brings happiness is flawed and naive for two reasons. Firstly, being rich is only relative to the spending power of others within our circle, so inevitably we compare ourselves to this cohort. In other words, the desire is not necessarily to be but wealthier than others. In addition to this, we set ourselves goals, such as the purchase of a car or the acquisition of a house; on of such achievements we feel a sense of satisfaction. Yet this is short-lived, and the cycle requires new goals and targets to make us happy; , these methods will never bring happiness.

A.I. Explanation:

Correct answer: fundamental
Explanation: The word 'fundamental' serves as an adjective that describes the two reasons being discussed. It fits grammatically as it modifies 'reasons' and contextually emphasizes the essential nature of these reasons in the argument about money and happiness.
Meaning: 'Fundamental' means basic or essential, indicating that the reasons are core to the argument.
Wrong options:

facilitate: 'Facilitate' is a verb meaning to make an action or process easier, which does not appropriately describe the reasons in this context.
wealthy: 'Wealthy' is an adjective that describes someone who has a lot of money, but it does not relate to the nature of the reasons being discussed.
endless: 'Endless' is an adjective that means having no end, which does not fit as it does not describe the reasons themselves.
inevitably: 'Inevitably' is an adverb that means unavoidably, which does not fit as it does not describe the reasons.
