Our goal isn't to just make as much money as we possibly can because we feel like a certain dollar amount is what's going to bring us happiness.
around $100,000 a year.
And this was in 2023.
So I would say it's with inflation, probably about 115, 120 a year is where the happiness level starts to plateau.
Which means like more money past that point doesn't have a big impact on our mental health when it comes to money.
But obviously if you make less than that, it has a much greater impact.
So our goal isn't to just hoard all the money in the world and make as much money as we possibly can to not do anything with it, right?
Like we don't want to be that extreme.
But it's important to remember that money does help drive happiness to a certain point because it gives us options.
It gives us peace of mind.
It helps our mental health, right?
And that's what it boils down to.
That is what happiness is about, is our mental health.
And money helps us do the things that help improve our mental health, which could be counseling, could be experiences, could be time with family.
In order to have those things, you need money.
You need money to be able to travel.
You need money to be able to miss work.
You need money to be able to...
have the experience, right?
So yes, you can't just go to the store and buy happiness, but to a certain point, you need money in order to do the things that make you happy for most things, right?
