On a post making fun of Musk you go and post a link to his website. Fuck X.com! No one should be sharing links to that site.

Money only buys happiness to up about like a 100k a year or so. I don’t know it might be even more now, but definitely not over 200k.
It used to be roughly 70k USD and 50k EUR some 10 years ago when I read the study. That’s the point at which you’re financially secure enough to have your basics needs met and have enough over to climb towards self-actualization.
