“According to a 2023 study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, wealthier people have more access to other sources of happiness, which can lead to less reliance on an internal sense of meaning to achieve happiness. However, research shows that happiness is not achieved through material wealth alone. Other factors that contribute to happiness include: social relations, freedom, generosity, and optimism.”

“Envy can lead people to want to bring others down as a way of trying to elevate themselves. When someone feels envious of another person’s success or happiness, they may try to undermine that person in order to feel better about themselves. This behavior can stem from feelings of insecurity, low self-esteem, or a lack of fulfillment in their own lives. Additionally, societal or cultural pressures can also influence individuals to engage in this kind of behavior. It’s important to remember that the actions of envious individuals are a reflection of their own internal struggles and should not be taken personally.”
