Nick Ledger explores why wealthy individuals often report lower life satisfaction despite financial success. Drawing from psychological research on dispositional greed, Buddhist philosophy, and Nordic cultural concepts like lagom, the episode examines how insatiability drives unhappiness. Learn how gratitude practices and redefining "enough" can break the cycle of perpetual wanting and restore genuine contentment. Loved this episode?
