The other end of the hedonic treadmill is a hungry ghost (borrowed this analogy from Buddhism). Without caring about your overall wellbeing and happiness levels, you keep feeding the hunger of saving and hoarding more. This hunger doesn’t get satiated whatsoever. The insatiable desire of the hungry ghost makes you run around. You will never feel it is enough. That is the nature of the ghost .When you apply this to finance, you will constantly worry about making and saving money for no purpose at all. The dissatisfied ghosts in you (read as behaviours) will drift and drain all your energy.
