> The belief that high income is associated with good mood is widespread but
> mostly illusory. People with above-average income are relatively satisfied
> with their lives but are barely happier than others in moment-to-moment
> experience, tend to be more tense, and do not spend more time in particularly
> enjoyable activities. Moreover, the effect of income on life satisfaction
> seems to be transient. We argue that people exaggerate the contribution of
> income to happiness because they focus, in part, on conventional achievements
> when evaluating their life or the lives of others.
