According a recent study written up in The Economist....
Money does not make people happier. Unless it's more money than people around them have.
For example, Mr. A makes 500 ducats per year. His neighbors make 1,000 ducats per year. If he suddenly makes 750 ducats per year, he's not happy. But if he suddenly makes 1,001 ducats per year, he goes into a state of ecstatic bliss. (This was measured by surveys, and also levels of the happy hormones and stress hormones in people's bodies).
Another example, same Mr. A situation: Mr. A, making 500 ducats per year, has two choices. 1) He can go from 500 to 750 ducats per year, and his neighbors stay at 1,000. 2) He can go to only 600 ducats per year, but his neighbors come down to 599 per year. Which option do most Mr. A's prefer? That's right, option 2). People are happier with less overall income-- just so long as its more than their neighbors'.
What a strange species we are.

Fungus that scrambles an ant's brain and makes zombie ant climb to the top of a tree. Then fungus sprouts from its head and rains spores down on all the other ants.
Wasp lays its eggs in a caterpillar. Larva feed on caterpillar's insides, but don't kill it. They emerge and make cocoons. Zombie caterpillar hangs around and aggressively knocks away an beetles that come near.
And more. Real-Life Zombies that are Stranger than Fiction
Mother Nature. WTF? |

These Japanese art scrolls portray warriors at battle. Apparently they're nobles, from the eboshi court caps they're wearing, probably from around the 13th or 14th century. What's unique is that they're engaging highly dishonorable flatulence combat. |
