Happiness isn't just about the numbers in your bank account, but having financial security can certainly ease life's stresses. Research suggests that emotional well-being increases with income, up to around $75,000 per year. Beyond that, the impact of extra income on day-to-day happiness is marginal. However, true happiness often comes from relationships, purpose, and health, not just money. So, while money can buy comfort and security, it's the intangible wealth that truly enriches our lives. Remember, happiness is personal and varies from person to person.
