"More money stresses me out" is the level of stress and the only stress I want.

[Tellmeaboutitdude]

Middle Class: Demands more in their life
Upper Class: Money is just money

"Im very happy with what I have." I would be too if I made 310, 000 dollars a year.

[RachelGLive]

The real estate agent that said "never" ... I died laughing

[jessicalee]

Wow. 60k a year and needing 2 more jobs on top of that? New York is insane.

"More money stresses me out." I have never heard that sentence in my life.

[its.albert.]

Sounds like people are answering the question "does YOUR SALARY make you happy?"
Instead of "does money make you happy"

[almostworthy]

I just came here see the jobs that are paying so fricking much!! LOL.

[badgyaltt]

I was feeling really good about my $11/hr job until now. I guess we're all being underpaid and overworked 🤷🏾‍♀️

[rkgracanica]

I want to have so much money that it makes me realise thay money doesnt make you happy

[lilbun]

$100K as a paralegal wtf? and she thinks shes being underpaid?

[jakubpodskalsky]

Lol. And I'm in a country where an ordinary person makes about $10k per year.

[MarinellaArroyo]

Long story short.. people always find a reason to be unhappy. It’s either I’m not making what I’m worth or I’m making more but have the stresses of
