I'm sure everyone is glad to take home more money, because more is generally better for most of us. But when you're as rich as many professional athletes are, it make me wonder if anyone making over a certain average pay is as satisfied as anyone else making more. Is Makar more satisfied with his contract than Lindholm if he can buy 10 new boats instead of 6 on any given year?
I'd imagine once you've hit that 6.5-7AAV (maybe 3.5million take home after all the deductions) and are relatively wealthy, you're overall satisfaction probably isn't substantially higher making 9-10AAV. I don't expect any discounts from either Johnny or Tkachuk with that in mind, but would be interesting to know if anyone approaches any contract negotiations with that in mind.

It doesn’t work that way. Rich or poor, everyone wants more money. Your spending is relative also
