I think this is best evidenced by my joy at payday. When I started out my website (about 13 years ago..), the first $25 payment really thrilled me! Eventually, I had bigger milestones. When I got to $100/month that was awesome! Then, we got even bigger.

Now, even an extra $3000/month gives me a nice feeling but nothing much to be honest.

I think money only goes so far. Once you're comfortable, it's only achievements and breakthroughs that can really make you happy.

Case in point: A blog that I started recently got it's first money (around $120, and I was overjoyed!) :)
