You know the old saying “Money can’t buy you happiness.”? I’ve never bought into it, and now there’s a big fancy Princeton study to prove me right.  See, I’ve always felt that most people’s number one source of stress in their lives was money.  I’ve always felt that if there wasn’t that stress of figuring out how to pay the bills there could generally be a heightened level of happiness.  Not that it was money that was making you happy, but it was the lack of stress that was allowing you to be happy.  Make sense?

Now, I guess to be fair, this study doesn’t completely prove me right, because according to Princeton, it only works if you make $75,000 a year.  Any less and you’re stressed you aren’t making enough.  Any more and you’re stressed about losing it all.  It also states that the more you make it doesn’t show an increased level of happiness.  Fair enough right?

See I’ve never been on the “other side” of the money scale and I’m guessing neither have a lot of you.  But I’m curious.  Any validity to this study?  Have you seen an increase in happiness the more you’ve made?  Or a decrease the less?
