財(cái)富和幸福感有沒有直接關(guān)系？一起來看看Tal博士課上引用的研究結(jié)果吧！

Wealth matters very little to our levels of wellbeing. Just like the lottery would make very little difference to our wellbeing. Now this does not mean that a person who doesn't have enough food, someone who is homeless on the streets here, gets an extra thousand or two thousand dollars a month, that of course will make him or her much happier. But beyond the basic needs, once our basic needs are met and that means food, shelter, basic education. Once those needs are met, income makes very little difference. No change across generations. You know, our generation is much wealthier than our parents, and much, much wealthier than our grandparents' generation. We are not happier. And that is global, whether it's in China, whether it's in the UK or Australia, or the United States.

財(cái)富對(duì)幸福水平的影響很小，就像中彩票對(duì)我們的幸福感影響甚微，但這并不是說一個(gè)沒有足夠食物，一個(gè)無家可歸流落街頭的人，每個(gè)月多得到一兩千美元，那當(dāng)然會(huì)讓他或她更快樂。但超出基本需要后，當(dāng)我們的基本需要得到滿足，即有食物、住所、基礎(chǔ)教育，一旦這些需要得到滿足，收入的影響其實(shí)微乎其微。這在幾代人之間沒有任何變化，你知道的，我們這一代人比我們的父輩富足比祖父輩更加富足。但我們不是更快樂，這是全球現(xiàn)象。不論是中國、英國還是澳大利亞或美國都是一樣。
