"'Fundamentally, the desire for wealth is linked to a state of frustration and dissatisfaction."
"'Happy people generally don't strive to become wealthy.'"
Increased wealth correlates with higher incidence of unethical behaviour, including lying during negotiations, cheating to win prizes, and endorsing greed at work. Upper-class individuals more often favor greed and exhibit less compassion for others' suffering, while lower socio-economic groups tend to show greater sympathy. Ownership or display of expensive possessions, such as cars, predicts reduced prosocial actions like yielding to pedestrians, with yielding decreasing as car value rises. Desire for wealth frequently stems from frustration and dissatisfaction, whereas happier individuals generally do not strive to become wealthy.
