- AVTizzle 14y agoThis topic actually piqued my interest and sent me on a little wiki-stroll: "Money correlates with happiness, but the rate diminishes with more money. In 2010, Daniel Kahneman and Angus Deaton found that higher earners generally reported better life satisfaction, but people's day-to-day emotional well-being only rose with earnings until a threshold annual income of $75,000." This entire article is sweet, by the way. Definitely recommended reading for anyone that finds this type of stuff interesting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happiness_economics#Individual_income http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happiness_economics#Individual_...
