h? Script


■

• I learned from a book that happiness and income are positively related. In other words, money can provide many benefits -- more opportunities, higher status in society, the ability to travel, enjoy better food, housing, health care and entertainment, etc.

• I remember the day I discovered that I would be financially independent. It was a summer day in the 1970s when I came home and presented my wife with more than a dozen checks from a mail-order business I had started. Within a year, we had bought our first home. The experience of becoming financially secure gave me an incredible feeling of satisfaction.


• However, it’s pointed out in the book that more money provides diminishing returns in happiness. Subjective well-being rises with income, but once beyond a certain level, income has little or no effect on happiness. That's why many wealthy people are not any happier than middle-class people. In fact, some wealthy people are downright unhappy.

• All in all, money, with no doubt, can help us to do a lot of things. We need money to fulfill our basic needs. We can enjoy ourselves physically at the expense of money. Superficially, money can buy everything in the world. Yet, it may be true only in the tangible environment.
