Happiness Is Earning $60,000 A Year? » My Money Blog
“Below 60,000 dollars a year, people are unhappy, and they get progressively unhappier the poorer they get. Above that, we get an absolutely flat line. I mean I’ve rarely seen lines so flat.”
“Clearly… money does not buy you experiential happiness, but lack of money certainly buys you misery,” he said.
Interesting article.
Obviously, this forum attracts people that are generally more ambitious, but I also get the hint that many (if not most) people here don't even earn $60k a year. If that insults you, I apologize. Just realize that I am also in that same boat, lol... for now. (And yes, I know, we all have plans to make millions soon enough.)
Thoughts on article? To be fair, it does make sense. Not that it will stop me from going Fastlane...
