In recent years, the debate on wealth and its real impact on personal happiness has gained relevance in Spain. Numerous studies and expert voices have questioned the belief that greater heritage automatically translates into a more satisfactory life, especially when certain economic thresholds are overcome. In this context, the vision of Andrés Rodríguez, director of Forbes Spainit provides a very different perspective on the risks associated with economic abundance.
In a recent interview for ‘Ac2ality Podcast’, the director of Forbes Spain reflects on the complex relationship between money and well -being. “From a certain level of money, they are all problems,” he says, recognizing, still, that economic lack remains the first obstacle.

Having a lot of money is also a problem
“Until you reach a minimum of money, they are all problems. If you don’t have money to keep your family, everything is problems,” he says. However, once this security is achieved, Rodríguez argues that the abundance of money raises other difficulties, such as “from a certain amount, which according to some studies place it around three million euros, the person begins to have serious problems of How to manage moneypressure, ”he says.
The manager points out that the management of large assets can lead to concerns that are rarely discussed in public. “If you or myself, hopefully the lottery tomorrow and it is a lot of money, you will have the feeling that the new people you know do not speak to you naturally,” he says, referring to the suspicion that the interest of others can be conditioned by the fortune that one has.
From how much money the problems come
The director also cites recent studies that reflect how, from certain income levels, vital satisfaction tends to stabilize or even decrease. “I recently read that beyond three million euros, pressure and worries increase, they do not decrease,” he explains.
The conclusions of the Director of Forbes Spain coincide with those of investigations such as those of Daniel Kahneman, Nobel Prize in Economics and co -author of several studies on the relationship between income and happiness, or the OECD analysis, which point to the existence of an economic threshold from which the psychological benefits of money are diluted.
Thus, in societies such as Spanish, where the perception of wealth generates debate, these reflections invite you to question the topics about money and to rethink which factors really contribute to well -being.
