The findings clearly tilt the balance in favor of the prevalent belief that more the money, higher the satisfaction compared to the other widespread notion that more money brings in more problems too. Though there is a thin line between people’s satisfaction and happiness; in its political interpretation, governments would do well to frame policies that enhance the general level of satisfaction of their people.
