The Secrets to a Rich Life
What does it mean to be rich?
Rich (Adj) Containing a large amount of something.
Being rich has been pinpointed to this suppressed reality of luxuriousness. My income is not what will determine the stature of my “richness,” instead measured by the level of my happiness.
Income and Level of Happiness
According to a new study from Princeton University’s Woodrow Wilson School, it sort of does — up to about $75,000 a year. The lower a person’s annual income falls below that benchmark, the unhappier he or she feels.
I agree to disagree. I think it depends on multiple factors. One person may find happiness in a new Tesla, while another may find pleasure in biking through the back trails to work.
So my point here is:
Whatever it is that makes you happy while you’re doing it, do it.
Factors of a Happy Life
- To live without having to worry if you can feed your children.
2. To live a life where you don’t hate your career.
3. To live without wondering what you could have or should have done.
