Thank you for raising skepticism about old studies! The new one that you mention is slightly suspect as well though :) It is based on data gathered from trackyourhappiness.org.

Another interesting paper about this is "Income and emotional well-being: A conflict resolved", Kahneman and Mellers, 2022 https://www.pnas.org/doi/epdf/10.1073/pnas.2208661120 https://www.pnas.org/doi/epdf/10.1073/pnas.2208661120
