Short excerpt from a YouTube video in which Raf Manji discusses personal identity, lifestyle choices, and the role of money in well-being. He argues money is important but beyond a certain point additional money yields diminishing marginal returns on well-being.
I think that's that sort of sense of kind of knowing who you are and what you're about and being comfortable in your own skin in some respects, and not having to, you know, show off, as it were, or not get sort of sucked into maintaining a lifestyle that isn't always that good for you or that supportive for you. And money is, you know, a tricky beast. You know, we all need it. And anyone who says, oh, money's not important, no, money is very, very important. And, but obviously beyond a certain level, you're kind of your marginal return on that extra dollar lessons in terms of your well being impact.
