Yeah, there is this really interesting idea out there based on research from years ago that once you earn a certain amount, in the study it was $60,000 to $90,000 a year, but I guess with inflation, probably talking around $100,000 a year, that your happiness level levels out.

What do you wish you'd done more of?

What do people tend to say?

It's true.

Yeah.
