Medium Happiness that Money Buys

3 min readApr 13, 2024

Sure, money can’t buy you all the happiness but it can happy moments and build core memories. Here are some for me, tell me in the comments what your medium happiness are:

Manicures & Pedicures

Stepping into the world with freshly cured hands and feet, is a feeling of quiet luxury. Buy the items required to treat yourself at home or go to your nearest local salon. I can guarantee the 30–40 mins of pampering & chair massage can be the happiest thing you do for yourself all month!

Fiction & nonfiction

Browse on Amazon or your local bookstore and spend the time in picking your next read. There’s something about going through the million titles and narrowing your search to transport yourself to another world.

Make an Old fashioned

If you are like me and love the feeling of having a freshly drink in your hands, then you have to invest in basics to make yourself a cocktail or two. I recommend a mixology book or recipes online, glasses, and instruments to muddle, mix and stir. And of course, some fresh fruits and bitters in your pantry will go a long way and add a fancy flair.

Cotton staples

Investing in cotton closet staples is good for you in many ways — easy to style, adds a chic vibe, and keeps you cool. Plus it’s easy to wash and maintain. I’d recommend buying cotton shirts, trousers, skirts, dresses. For home staples — investing in pure cotton bedsheets keeps you cool in summer and always looks fresh. Cotton hand towels and napkins also easy additions and perfect for a summer soirée!

Fresh Flowers

Trader Joe’s and wegmans have the best collection of big or small set of flowers, and adding them in your living room, dining table, and bedside table, adds a touch of glamour and could even help with feeling put together. I’d recommend- watching Instagram videos to keep your flowers fresh. My favorite tips — removing leaves and keep replacing water.
