Love this, Annie. Do you think one reason GenX reports less money dysmorphia is that we’ve never heard of the term? But seriously, as a financial planner I agree with you that it’s not necessarily irrational. Part of it is that we don’t get any financial education, and that it’s hard to do long-term math (with compounding) in our heads! How much really is enough?

Hmmm. That's entirely possible. I only heard of the term when the New York Times published that article!
