How much money do you need to live happily in California (USA)? In other countries?

Hello

It's all about the money, money, money

We don't need no money, money

We're just tryimg to make the world dance.

Forget about the price tags.

Hello guys

Super popular topic today

How much money do you need to be happy

I'm going to share what I think

about myself

and I'm going to share my thought on

the amount of money you need to be happy.

We also gonna ask other people

We gonna call people from other countries

and ask them what they think.

So how much money do I need

to be happy

First I need to define happiness

to myself

So what I think

that I don't need millions of dollars.

Millions of dollars actually

don't help you evolve.

There were times in Russia

when the oil prices were super high.

Many people had access to a lot of money.

They ended up buyimg private jets,

buying yachts,

and comparing themselves to others

just by handbags and by brands.

It didn't really help them.

evolve as a person.

It didn't help them become a better person.

That's why I think we need the amount of money

to feel comfortable.

I want to concentrate on my business

and I don't want to spend time thinking

"should I go to Mcdonalds today

to have lunch because it's cheaper?

than the place next to my office

where they serve vegetarian organic food?"

Or maybe I should drive to that meeting today

and not take an Uber.

I want to illuminate those thoughts

from my mind and concentrate on

what's really important on my business.

Or for example take my blogging activity

many people complain that the sound is not good

or maybe the camera is not the best one.

But imagine if I was a beginner blogger

and I had access to thousands of dollars

and I thought

I should get the best camera

and I should get the best microfone.

I should also rent a studio

and only then I'd be making my first video

and inagine I've done that.

I spend 10 000 $

I actually made my first video

and it got hundred of views.

This is really a failure

This demotivates me to continue

blogging activity

and I realise I've spent all those money in vain.

This is why I think that

for example for blogging

I'm happy that I didn't have a lot of money

when I started

so I filmed everything with my iphone.

Only then I generated enough revenue

from my YouTube,

I was able to get a new camera,

a new microfone

and my videos got better.

This rule applies to the age when you

20's or 30's

You just need enough money to continue developing your talents

with growing your company or growing your youtube blog

or concentrating on your job you really like.

You don't have to have too much money.

Not worrying about taking an Uber,

not worrying about buying organic food

in a good shop.

This is what makes your income just good enough

Of course when we grow up

when we have children

we need to think of their college

we need to think of their education

and their lifestyle

and this is when we need a lot more money.

Take your time when you're in your 20's and 30's.

Don't dream about becoming a millionare

Dream and do everything to get the amount of money

that would allow you to live comfortably

and be comfortable with what you're doing.

and concentrate on what really matters

developing your talents.

And you're going to say "hey marina,

you dind't say how much money you need to be happy."

This part of my life I need 6000$

a month to be happy.

It's because California is super exepensive

rent in California, food in California,

especially in Silicon valley

I think it's the most expensive place in the world.

Pearson or couple need at least 5 000

a month

to be comfortable with a place where they live

and to continue daily activities.

And develop their talents.

Hey, here comes the interesting part.

I'm going to use a service on linguatrip.com

I'm going to connect to other people in different countries

and ask them how much money do they need to be happy

I don't know which countries they're gonna come from

So we'll see together.

So basically you get connected to a person

who somewhere else in the world

and speaks English.

This is the best way to practice your English

because I'm nervous as well

because this is a random person I have to speak English

but it's the best practice you can get.

This is what happens in real life

You just go out and talk to people in English

If you can't bring English environment into your home

let us help you.

1000 $

1000 $?

Do you think it's enough?

Yes, it's enough money to be happy.

Hello?

Hey

He's just hung up on me.

I'm from Saudi Arabia.

Where are you from?

Cool, I'm from Russia.

I'm actually calling people today

and asking them how much money do they need to be happy.

How much money a month you need to be happy

He just said

that money doesn't mean happiness.

Many people say that.

Then you also need money to live comfortably.

He said in order to have fun

you'd need billions of dollars

But I doubt it.

What do you need to have fun?

Maybe you need to ride a private jet.

You can get a subscription for couple thousands a month

and you'd get this private jet.

Maybe you need to travel like crazy

but it's also not billions of dollars.

I think our wishes can be quantified

if you calculate the amount of money you need

you would need less.

I'm calling people today

and asking how much money they need to be happy

to live a comfortable life.

How much money do you need a month to be happy?

I need to have 30000$ for a month

30000$ that's a lot!
