How much $$ do you need to earn to be happy?

Think about that for a minute. What’s your happy number? Do you know? When I was in my teens, I thought that if could ever make $150 a week, I would be set!

In my late 20’s, I would’ve been ecstatic with $20k a year for the rest of my life.

According to a new survey, the average household income that would produce happiness and satisfaction is;

“Nearly a quarter of the people who took the poll, conducted by ORC International, said between $50,000 and $74,999 would work. That calls to mind the results of a Princeton study, which found that emotional well being rose with income, but not much beyond $75,000.
In other words, past a certain income level, your happiness comes from other factors.”

Interesting.
