What happened? The happiness effect evaporates after a few months. But, soon the cheerfulness disappeared, and six months later he was unhappier than ever. For the first few weeks, he beamed with delight. His dream materialized into a villa with ten rooms, a swimming pool and an enviable view of lake and mountains. Rolf Dobelli describes it nicely in one of his articles: A friend, a banking executive, whose enormous income was beginning to burn a hole in his pocket, decided to build himself a new home away from the city.
But, soon you realized that the happiness fizzled out, and you are back to the same level of happiness. You were really happy of your new possession and you thought that it is going to add to your stack of happiness in life. Imagine the excitement you had when you bought your first car.
