[Quote No.67540] Need Area: Money > Income "[Money should be a means to a satisfying end use rather than a goal for its own sake; after a certain level more money doesn't mean more pleasure; enough-ism, minimalism, essentialism:-] And yet - and I expect I'm not the first person you've heard tell this tale - the 'mo' money' I made, the more miserable I became. Which led me to simply work harder and buy more toys on the misguided assumption that, sooner or later, all this effort was going to pay off and I'd find the pot of gold - happiness - thought to lie at the end of the high-achievement rainbow. I'd become a hamster on what psychologists call the 'hedonic treadmill.' The more you get, the more you want." - Mo Gawdat Chief Business Officer of Google X and author of ‘Solve For Happy: Engineering Your Path to Uncovering the Joy Inside You’. Quote from his book.

[Quote No.67543] Need Area: Money > Income "[Money should be a means to a satisfying end use rather than a goal for its own sake; after a certain level more money doesn't mean more pleasure; enough-ism, minimalism, essentialism:] The scientific research will tell you that the more income you get the more happy you will become, but once you get to average income your happiness plateaus.

[Quote No.67694] Need Area: Money > Income "[A story about experience and value:]
Where to Tap:
Ever hear the story of the giant ship engine that failed? The ship's owners tried one expert after another, but none of them could figure out how to fix the engine. Then they brought in an old man who had been fixing ships since he was a youngster. He carried a large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very carefully, top to bottom.
Two of the ship's owners were there, watching this man, hoping he would know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached into his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something. Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away. The engine was fixed!
A week later, the owners received a bill from the old man for ten thousand dollars.
'What?!' the owners exclaimed. 'He hardly did anything!' So they wrote the old man a note saying, 'Please send us an itemized bill.'
The man sent a bill that read,
Tapping with a hammer............$2
Knowing where to tap...............$9998
