How Much Money Is Enough?
Earning enough money to live comfortably is a goal of many
people. But how much money is
“enough”? And what is comfortable? One
answer is, it depends on the kind of lifestyle you want to live and what type
of “comforts” you crave. One person with
a modest lifestyle could live comfortably on $90,000 a year. Another person with an extravagant lifestyle
would find $90,000 as being not enough money to enjoy life the way they want to. A life filled with luxuries and always
wanting to experience the “best” does cost more. That does not mean you can only enjoy life if
you are wealthy. It does mean you may
have to pick and choose when to experience life at the extravagant level.
If wealth was the primary indicator of happiness, there
would be many depressed people in this world.
Money is power. Money does buy
you access to people and things, there is no doubt about that. The material nature of the world supports
money being a force to be acknowledged.
Our material desires dictate how much we will spend and how much money
we “need” to enjoy life. Our desires
lead us to pursue our level of “enough”.
Most people can settle for having a level of enjoyment that does not
require that every experience must be a lavish one. So their income needs are not as major as a
person who must have the lavish lifestyle.
How much money is enough?
We all need enough income to support our basic needs. Food, shelter, companionship, entertainment
are among the basic needs of people . It
is the level of enjoyment that we want to experience in each of those categories
that determines what our “enough” is. If
our income level is not enough to achieve our dream levels for food, shelter,
companionship, and entertainment, we have to “settle” for lesser levels that do
not cost as much. Settling for less does
not mean you enjoy an experience less.
It’s all relative to how important the level of experience is to you.
We all create levels in life that we want to achieve. My enough is not your enough. It comes down to personal preference and making
sacrifices to reach the level of preference you desire. Many things we do are
not necessary. It all comes down to that
simple statement. We do things because
we can.
