Interesting post, Sara. I want to comment on the research by Daniel Kahneman that you referred to. Money does lead to happiness :)
Mr. Kahneman eventually found that your happiness level increases quickly up to $75k a year (in 2009 dollars) and then it still increases, just more slowly.
I agree that shooting for money alone is a waste of our resources. There must be a big goal.
Really well written piece and great thoughts in here Sara. A recent post of mine shared similar thoughts regarding it's more about just "running numbers up on a scoreboard." There needs to be something more meaningful than that on the other side of making more money if you want to keep growing as a person and in your career.

Thank you Denis! I'd be more than interested if you can link that research here, curious to take a look.
