How much money makes you happy?
Prof. Jan-Emmanuel De Neve, a director at the University of Oxford Wellbeing Research Centre, explores the intriguing connection between money and happiness. He reveals that while money can enhance happiness, the impact diminishes with increasing income. For those at the lower end of the salary scale, a significant boost in happiness occurs when earnings rise from £20,000 to £40,000. However, doubling income is necessary for similar happiness gains at higher levels. The conversation also touches on the importance of relationships and purpose in overall well-being.
