I’m not calling b.s. on the article; I am curious if any other HNers have parsed the surrounding research and seen discussion of this (isn’t it blatantly obvious?) correlation between affluence and wellbeing.

I'm visiting "blue spaces" every year, multiple times (I live in a landlocked country). I know for a fact (worked in tourism industry) that literally every socioeconomic class here spends a significant amount of their income to visit "blue spaces".
Yeah, the more affluent people can afford better places with more people working for their comfort, but that doesn't change a thing about the poorest just packing their car and going by themselves, staying in a tent right next to the "blue space" if they have to.
If you’re in the tourism industry, maybe you can help? I find your comment antagonistic and my feelings are hurt, but I also understand that internet culture sucks and/or you may not have meant it as such.
