Most people will tell you that money can’t buy you happiness, however, money sure can solve a lot of problems that cause unhappiness! “What are the economics of happiness?” is the title of an interview with Betsey Stevenson, an associate professor at University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School. In the interview she talks about measuring happiness Income is one of the larger influences on happiness. Changes in happiness due to income are more pronounced when the increase in income is meaningful enough to change your “station in life”. Have you heard the love of money as the root of all evil? The pursuit of more income is not about loving money, but rather about allowing you and your family to enjoy life. Quality of life is why we go to work in order to generate income. Even if you narrow your view on income and think you are only working to pay the bills you are still thinking about your quality of life. If you didn’t pay the bills what would your quality of life then be like? Look at your efforts to increase your income as ways to not only prevent a poor life, by not paying bills, but ways to enrich your life by giving you the opportunity to do the things you want.
