Episode 4217:
Leo Babauta explains why the question of how much is enough sits at the heart of simplifying life and practicing frugality. He argues that a consumer culture built on wanting more can never be satisfied, and that enough means having what we need to live, be happy and thrive rather than only the bare necessities. He offers seven questions for finding enough, including what truly makes us happy and whether wanting less could mean working less, making this a classic piece on minimalism and intentional living.

Quotes to ponder:
"Enough means having enough to live, and enough to be happy, and enough to thrive."
"It's impossible to satisfy that hunger for more, because our culture is not satisfied with what we have, but is geared to wanting more."
"There are almost certainly people living happily and comfortably on a lower income than yours."
