Money matters

I’m Miriam Neff,  and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, with Wise Women Managing Money

M How much money do you need to be satisfied?  Recent surveys say that earnings beyond $85,000 a year won’t buy much happiness. This varies by state.  Since the average family income is $70,000.00, most probably would like more money.  Digging a little deeper, a more important source of happiness is having the freedom to pursue what matters most in life.   My friend, that is within your reach and mine.

V Take that notebook and write down what matters to you.  Look at the 21 Bible references about being happy.  Then plan, maybe starting with a mere wish list what tiny steps you can take today to move more of what matters into your calendar, your space, and your emotional investment. 

Your income level may not rise, but your happiness level will.
