Isn't money just the middle man?

Isn't money just the middle man?
I've been studying economics for a relative while now (Highschool and university) it is an extremely intuitive system though fundamentally GDP just seems halfway there on the logic. No one is getting money for the sake of money (excluding inherently evil game of exchange marketsSmile. People want to make money so they can spend it on things that they believe will make them happy. Thus people are just trying to be happy.
Couldn't we deal with growing materialism and social problems by replacing GDP with a measure of happiness, or more technically a measure of life satisfaction?
