IIRC there was a study I once used in a paper I did that said that at around $175,000/year is when money stops making you happy. Something to do with having everything you need/want paid for, your kid's going to good private schools, college paid for, etc takes a huge load off your back. After that it's just numbers and dumb shit like yachts.

Yeah, something like $80k/year gets you 90% of the way there. Basically after that it's paying for future stuff instead of current stuff.
