For instance, we get happier over time when we've bought experiences, like a vacation, but less happy when we've bought things, like a new watch. And here's a tidbit for you that flies in the face of the American Dream: Research shows that the value of your car has no effect on how much you enjoy driving it, and that homeowners aren't any happier than renters.
