The Dark Side of Being Wealthy: Job Dissatisfaction

Having wealth does not guarantee happiness at work. Studies show that high-income families are not significantly happier with their jobs compared to average earners. Despite more income, stress at work can increase and impact work-life balance, with many people preferring a lower income for better balance. Choosing a fulfilling career and using money to buy flexibility are strategies to improve overall job satisfaction.
