For millionaires and billionaires, it sure seems like money can buy happiness.
New research shows that ultra-wealthy individuals are more content than those earning six-figure salaries, Bloomberg reported on Wednesday. That’s according to Matthew Killingsworth, a senior fellow at the Wharton School who studies the causes of human happiness. Killingsworth worked on a similar study last year, and he has now updated his findings to include the super-rich.
“The results suggest that the positive association between money and well-being continues far up the economic ladder, and that the magnitude of the differences can be substantial,” Killingsworth writes in his abstract.
Money means freedom, and if freedom doesn’t bring you happiness, you’re a lost cause.
