Day 9 - Does Wealth Make You Happy?

Abraham Oros - The Recovering Escapist

This spiritual reading says that wealth, prestige, and power do not make you happy. I agree. I narrow in on just one of these three things, wealth. I mention a couple of studies that show results that agree. Take a listen and let me know what you think. I'm open to hearing all opinions.

Finding Joy Beyond Wealth: Abraham Oros on Happiness

High income improves evaluation of life, but not emotions.

Ever wondered if having more money really makes you happier? Abraham Oros tackles this age-old question in his podcast, 'The Recovering Escapist'. With over two decades of sobriety and a wealth of therapy experience, Abraham dives into the complex relationship between wealth and happiness. Drawing from his own life, where he has experienced both ends of the financial spectrum, he offers a unique perspective on what truly brings joy.

This episode isn't just about personal anecdotes; it also looks at studies that examine how income affects our sense of well-being. While high income might boost life satisfaction, it doesn't necessarily make us happier on an emotional level. Abraham reminds us that true happiness comes from within, not from our bank accounts. If you're curious about finding joy in your own life, this episode is a must-listen.
