Comment: After surveying 1.7 million people across 164 countries, American psychologists determined how much money a person needs to feel happy. It turns out that there is a threshold of income beyond which the feeling of happiness starts to decline.

The ideal income for an individual is, on average, $60,000 to $75,000 per year. “Now we understand,” the researchers say, “that happiness has a limit.”

My Response: In reality, they are talking about the limit of happiness that money can buy. But happiness itself has no limit. One simply needs to properly balance “appetite” and “food” when there is happiness but just a little bit is missing. Then everything falls into place.

As for money, it is a tool to achieve goals in our material world. For a spiritual goal in the upper world, a different kind of money is needed. There money turns into a means of elevation, a means of bestowal. That is the true feeling of life.

A wealthy person in spirituality is the one who constantly has the opportunity to fill others to the extent of his connection with the Creator.
