I work all day to get rich, but nothing is sweeter than a free meetup with a friend/partner. What are ways to live life EVERYDAY but also chase your dreams? (alien.top)

Somedays I get so consumed by getting rich that I work all day. I falsely assume that I'll only be able to enjoy life when I have more money

Then I see people around me who have less money than me, enjoying, and I think to myself, I need to seriously take a break

Nothing feels sweeter than having a good day with a friend or meeting your partner. Or even anything else really

What are ways to live life EVERYDAY but also chase your dreams?

I came across a study this week that surveyed people across various income levels, asking what salary increase they believed would ensure their happiness. Interestingly, the average responses were consistent across all salary ranges:

•	25-50k = 30-50% increase
•	50-100k = 30-50% increase
•	100k-250k = 30-50% increase
•	250k-500k = 30-50% increase

TLDR: It seems no matter how much people earn, they always feel the need for more to be happy.

This is possibly because we tend to buy things for the happiness we think they’ll bring, yet often we can’t fully enjoy these purchases because we’re too busy working to make use of them.
