the fucked up thing is that it's almost true, there's a level of wealth where people are generally optimally happy. Look at people who get enough money to buy a house and comfortably retire early on without needing to worry about affording normal things again, something like that is peak contentment in life.
I sincerely do not understand why a mentally healthy person would ever want a to be richer than that, it means you have to do a bunch of publicity shit and other miserable stuff and it doesn't really benefit you much.
Broken people can't afford a house... they are happy if they get through the month with +-0.
I think another important factor is how famous you are. I’d imagine it’s really annoying to get recognised anywhere you go…
unless of course you're like mrbeast or the muskrat who seem to love the attention and in fact crave the constant validation of being recognized.
I think people will want always more.
