- Fiona Shaw

About this Quote

This quote by Fiona Shaw recommends that a demographic survey was carried out to investigate the relationship between cash and happiness. The survey results showed that in a lot of locations, money was linked to happiness. Nevertheless, the survey exposed that Ireland was the only place where this was not the case. This recommends that cash does not necessarily equate to happiness, which there are other aspects that add to a person's general sense of health and wellbeing. This could consist of things such as family, friends, and a sense of purpose. It is possible that the Irish people have a various outlook on life, which they place more value on relationships and experiences than on product ownerships. This quote highlights the importance of looking beyond money when it pertains to finding true joy.
