Check this out from the article referenced from Green Futures: "The only exception to the Money doesn't buy happiness? rule is in the case of those on very low incomes -around £7,500 per year or less- where increased income does indeed appear to translate into higher levels of life satisfaction. Once they're over the poverty threshold, though, further riches have little long-term effect."
It's worth looking at the whole article as it draws on a lot of studies on wellbeing and happiness
So if more money won't make most of us happier, what will? -Well there are some clues on that too ... though I trust most reader might already have some idea about what they might be.
Nous like scouse or French -oui? We wee whee all the way ... to mind us a bunch of thunks. Too much information? How could that be?
