Money aint everything.

Sounds like the sort of thing someone with money would say.

I think what GP meant was that money, beyond a certain point, means little. Upto that point money does mean a lot, and anybody who denies that has never lived in poverty.

What that specific point is, depends on who you're asking. If you ask me (a student in India), that point lies around $50k/year. For me that is an unimaginable amount of money, and I don't believe earning any more than that would result in a significant increase in quality of life.

But if you ask someone in USA, you might get a different answer. Maybe for them $300k/year is around where earning more wouldn't necessarily result in a significant benefit.

It depends on where you are, who you've been around, and what dreams you have.

Here's a good question: if there was a sensible UBI for every human being, would you still do the work you do and still work just as hard?

The answer is going to be different for everybody. I hope people find their ikigai.
