It makes you happier to a point. We read all about it in psych!

Essentially, when you're needs aren't met, money can help satisfy those needs, which helps in feeling happy. But past a certain point, I think it as about 50,000 a year, an increase in money doesn't really make you happier. It just increases your pleasure.

It certainly helps. I’d certainly rather be miserable with money than miserable and broke
