ARTICLE

THE WEALTHY, SUCCESSFUL, AND MISERABLE The upper echelon is hoarding money and privilege to a degree not seen in decades. But that doesn’t make them happy at work.

The Wealthy, Successful, and Miserable is an article written by Chrles Duhigg in 2019 for The New York Times Magazine. It opens up the conversation about how people who make a lot of money and are successful are usually the ones who are unhappy.

On the other hand, it shows that people with low-income who admire their job and feel meaningful in the workplace are the most satisfied, happy employees. This article gives an inside to the problems with money and corporate jobs and entertains the phrase “money doesn’t buy you happiness.”
