The Money Paradox
Why you need it to be happy, but how you’ll be miserable if that’s all you chase.
92% of the money that circulates nowadays is digital. You can’t touch it, stack it, or smell it, however, the importance it carries remains the same.
In many ways, it’s the gatekeeper who holds all the freedom and pleasure we work 8 hours a day for.
We need it to pay rent, gas, buy food, and as research has shown, to make us happy.
Yes, you read that right.
“What?”
You may have just instinctively questioned.
“Money doesn’t bring happiness, we all know plenty of rich people who are depressed.”
While there are countless examples of wealthy individuals succumbing to the tragedy inside their minds, we have much more of the opposite:
Unwealthy people struggling with their happiness.
While the amount of 0’s in your bank account has all to do with how proficient you are at making money, and nothing to do with how good of a person you are, it will provide, generally speaking, a better level of happiness to those who possess more of it.
