I like to discuss all kinds of topics regarding happiness and life advice here.

 

For example:
How do you know you earn enough money?
If you spend more money than you earn, you might get in trouble.

If you earn too much money, you might have a bad work life balance.

At 62 I work 2 part time jobs and love connecting with the people in those places.  We truly are all in this life together!

Funny thing is millionaires often feel financially insecure :)

I think it's hard for millionaires to find real friends and relationships who are not just after their money. And if they can't get appreciation by their friends because of that, they try to feel good and being respected by spending the money for status symbols. But when they start trying to show off with their expensive status symbols, they start comparing with other rich people and there will always be someone with a more expensive status symbol, so in the end they will be unhappy even though they have a lot of expensive stuff.

 

That's why I don't tell people about how much money I've got. When I'm asked, my answer will be "Enough". This way, nobody gets jealous and nobody wants to be my friend just for the money.

But comparing with others is a problem to me. Generally I think comparing is a good thing, because it can inspire me to improve my life. But on the other hand it can ruin my happiness, because there is always someone better than yourself.

So I try to stop comparing sometimes, I try to be proud of what I achieved and to make the best of what I have.
