Money Can Buy Happiness [pdf]
I think I&#x27;m happy and I agree with this paper. I&#x27;ve been struggling with my relationship with money for months and I wish I had read this sooner.<p>After covering your basic needs, money gives you the freedom to pursue your greater needs, and in that sense it can buy happiness. Whether those needs are good relationships, health, or fulfilling work, money in a sense, can buy or help you buy that, at least the time to build relationships or work.<p>However, something I have been struggling with is the hedonic treadmill. I feel like expectations are consistently being raised. I worry that it will never end and I also worry about what will happen if it does end. Has anyone ever felt this way? I think that&#x27;s the point of enjoying the journey... Does anyone have tips on how to enjoy the journey?
