i disagree that a higher cultured person will experience a higher level of happiness. I think that having less culture will lead to greater happiness. For example, if u ask a person when they were most happy, they will probably say something like the first time they did something momentarily, like bunjee jumping, or their first kiss, etc. A more cultured person who has achieved goals they worked long and hard for will feel fulfilled, but not the instant rush of extasy from drugs or sex or adrenaline that requires no deep thought. While the fulfilled persons happiness will last longer, the rush will be a much higher level of happiness.
