MAN: I’ll tell you what – I’m sick of hearing of these people who have so much money it makes them miserable!
WOMAN: Don’t you think it’s possible, then? I do.
MAN: Some people are generally cheerful, others are miserable - it’s got nothing to do with money.
WOMAN: Well, I agree with the study that said you need a certain minimum amount to be happy. Then after that happiness is linked to income up to a point, but then after that there’s no link.
MAN: I wouldn’t complain if I came into a couple of million, believe me!
WOMAN: No, but you’ve got your life now, your friends, your routine – that would all change – you’d be forced to make difficult decisions, you might leave your job, move ...
MAN: I think most people would avoid that old trap. Personally, I’d keep some of it, maybe go on a couple of holidays, then I’d give the rest away to family, to charities.
WOMAN: But surely you agree that wealth has its pressures.
MAN: I certainly wouldn’t argue with that – in fact, being either extremely well-off or extremely poor forces you to waste a lot of time thinking about money, but unhappiness comes from other things.
WOMAN: It’s also a matter of being satisfied with what you’ve got. Once your needs are met, you could waste your whole life chasing bigger, better, newer stuff.
