I didn&#x27;t say there isn&#x27;t a diminishing value of each dollar, but your comment seemed to imply that at a certain point, people will be &quot;content&quot; at a certain income level and not try to get more money.<p>Rich people are a counterpoint because there are people with incomes the size of a small country, and they are still striving for money.  Given the diminishing utility of familiar pleasures, I think its likely that constantly reaching for &quot;more&quot; is the norm, rather than the exception.
