Money can't buy happiness
When prioritizing money versus other life values
Understanding the Rule
Beyond meeting basic needs, wealth doesn't guarantee life satisfaction. Relationships, purpose, health, and personal growth often matter more for wellbeing than material wealth.
What Happens When You Break It
Prioritizing wealth above all else leads to neglected relationships, poor health, lack of meaning, and discovering too late that money doesn't fill the void.
Benefits of Following This Rule
Recognizing money's limitations helps prioritize what truly matters, creates balanced life choices, builds meaningful relationships, and focuses energy on sustainable sources of wellbeing.
