A Princeton University study found that Americans who make the most money are no happier than those who make less, but a survey of 335,000 Americans published in the New England Journal of Medicine reported that the rich are healthier. Seniors ages 55 to 64 who live below the poverty line were six times as likely to have a long-term condition that severely limits their activity as wealthy Americans of the same age whose earnings were at least seven times as high as the poverty line.
