Some people think that money and happiness are not related to each other. Happiness does not come from how much money we have. However, there are actually 3 kinds of happiness that money can give. What are they?
How Money and Happiness Are Related
1. Being able to help others
We feel truly happy when we can help those who are in trouble or in need, don’t you agree? Indeed there are many ways to help others, such as giving time and energy.
But, it is undeniable that by having money we can also lighten the burden of others. Many people actually need more help in the form of money. You can set aside some money to give to charity.
2. Being able to live your retirement life comfortably
Who doesn't want to live life to the fullest after retirement? Everyone who wants to live their retirement life comfortably needs sufficient retirement savings.
By having sufficient savings, you don't need to burden your children or other family members to finance various living expenses when you retire. Also, it's great when you can do whatever you want with the money you have.
In order to enjoy this happiness, there is only one key. You need to be disciplined and consistent in saving money from a young age. It's best to immediately set aside money to build your retirement fund since you receive your first salary.
The Jago application is here to help you achieve the happiness of living your retirement life comfortably and without a burden. You can save money in Jago’s Locked Pocket. Why the Pocket Locked?

Money can also give happiness in the form of being free from debt. When you have no debt at all, life is far from stress and worry. You don't need to think about how to pay off debt or when the debt can be paid off.
