Didn't get much from the article except that one's relationships are an important factor in happiness. Personally, I found the following paper more actionable: "If Money Doesn't Make You Happy Then You Probably Aren't Spending It Right"[1].
> The relationship between money and happiness is surprisingly
weak, which may stem in part from the way people spend it. Drawing on
empirical research, we propose eight principles designed to help
consumers get more happiness for their money. Specifically, we suggest
that consumers should (1) buy more experiences and fewer material
goods; (2) use their money to benefit others rather than themselves;
(3) buy many small pleasures rather than fewer large ones; (4) eschew
extended warranties and other forms of overpriced insurance; (5) delay
consumption; (6) consider how peripheral features of their purchases
may affect their day-to-day lives; (7) beware of comparison shopping;
and (8) pay close attention to the happiness of others.
