How to Buy Happiness

<p>Can money buy happiness? It’s easy to get trapped in a cycle of working more and more hours, chasing more and more money, in the hopes of getting happier. But after a certain point, despite our hard-wired belief to the contrary, more money doesn’t bring more happiness. In this episode, Arthur and Ceci discuss the sometimes complicated relationship between money, happiness, and satisfaction. They also share how, at any income level, with a little knowledge and practice, we <em>can </em>actually use money to buy a little more happiness.</p> <p>Join <a target='_blank' href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.facebook.com_groups_happinesscirclefriends&amp;d=DwMGaQ&amp;c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&amp;r=rYZR18gIl2neyVAIux8mhLcDg4aICLDh-OHgt0c58qs&amp;m=emxi8jaJozZFZs-irE-95ss7R3Vyv_WQ4MBUuiVgyAY&amp;s=RrPaujo5eMokTny57eXwNnsQAVmLcJTFxSSCD1R7oeg&amp;e=" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Art of Happiness Circle of Friends</a>!</p> <p><strong>Happiness Survey:</strong> I’d love to hear from you about your thoughts on happiness and current practices to improve your well-being.
