Title: Compensation Season and the Hedonic Treadmill

Context: When I sat down with our Director of Media to discuss 2022 goals, one that quickly rose to the top of the list was to write short-form blog content for outside publications. We didn’t know what that would look like, but enter the Greater Des Moines Partnership! The Greater Des Moines Partnership is the economic and community development organization that serves Greater Des Moines (DSM), Iowa. Together with 24 Affiliate Chambers of Commerce, more than 6,500 Regional Business Members, and 365+ Investors, The Partnership drives economic growth with one voice, one mission, and as one region. Greater Des Moines also happens to be my home, so I was doubly excited to produce content for them.

This article is the first of a series of articles I’ll be writing for the Greater Des Moines Partnership. My content will fall into the money-but-not-money camp. I’ll be writing about finances, but it’s not really about finances at all. I thought this first article fairly represented what we believe and what we teach.
