Last year pulled in near $200k and I was not any happier than when I hit $80k. I just saved wayyy more.
I now make less and I'm just as happy. I think it comes down to what you like to do. I don't like having nice things because I just worry if they will get wrecked / scratched / damaged / stolen. So I generally buy used or at a really good deal at this point, and I value things like just hanging out with other people.
Having a lot of money would be nice to bring other people with you to other places you travel. That's about it. But then those people would probably turn to you for other things. So meh. I'm fine with $50-$80k.
