How much money Ankur Nagpal needs to be happy for life
b'How much money do you need to be happy?\\nMoney alone is not going to make you a happy person, but it can sure as hell help you get there. Money can buy you security, time, health, and safety for you and your loved ones, and it can relieve stress when it comes to life\'s financial pressures.\\nTo say that money can\'t impact your happiness is naive. But what we want to know is, when is enough, enough?\\n\\nIf you don\'t know that number, you can easily slip into the hole of always needing and wanting more, which inevitably takes away from your happiness. At a certain point, you start wasting your time and adding stress to your life in the never-ending pursuit of more.\\nSo what is the threshold when it\'s time to end the chase and simply enjoy the life you\'ve built for yourself?\\nIn this episode, Ankur Nagpal shared his number. Ankur Nagpal is in his early thirties with a net worth north of nine figures. He started raking in money in college with his Facebook App business, but his real life-changing moment was when he sold his company Teachable for a quarter billion dollars. Now, he\'s the founder of fintech company Carry, formerly known as Ocho.\\nAnkur will tell us about the financial decisions he made that contributed to his happiness, the mistakes he made, and he\'s radically transparent about the numbers while he does so.\\n\\nSam will also share his own "happiness threshold" number, and we\'ll also get input from another guy who rakes in over $10 million a year.\\nDo you want more of the show?
