Ben Carlson: The Curse Of The Young Millionaire

FYI: The winter months can be brutal in Michigan. It’s cold. It’s snowy. It’s icy. It’s dark. The sun rarely peeks out from behind the clouds.

I love the warm weather so at least once a year, probably around January or February, I fantasize about moving somewhere warmer and curse myself for living in the cold.

The problem with this line of thinking is that moving somewhere warmer probably wouldn’t make me any happier. The research on the focusing illusion backs me up on this when Daniel Kahneman sought to answer the question: Are people who live in California happier than others?
Regards,
Ted
