Money/Happiness

Time’s articles keep saying that money doesn’t buy happiness. They say it over and over again in this Jan. 17 edition.

But then they have a graph which says the opposite.

Just how happy are we? it asks. And then it says, based on income. And the numbers go up for money and % of happiness.

Happy all or most of the time?
income under $35K = 68%
$35-50K = 81%
$50-100K = 85%
$100K+ = 88%

Happy not very often?
under $35K = 7%
$35-50K = 5%
$50-100K= 2%
$100K+ = 1%
