A new study has found that not only can money buy happiness, but the more money a person makes, the happier they may be.
The results conflict with a study from 2010 which found that the more money people make, the happier they feel, but only up to about $75,000 a year. Another study from 2018 found that, across all countries, the ideal average income for life satisfaction is $95,000 a year.
The new study followed participants for seven years, using a smartphone app to collect data from over 33,000 people aged 18 to 65, with incomes of between $10,000 and $625,000 a year. At random times during the day, the app would ask them questions like, "How do you feel right now?" and "Overall, how satisfied are you with your life?"
The results showed that both how a person felt and how satisfied they were with their life improved as their income increased, even for those making several hundred thousand dollars a year.
Matthew Killingsworth, the study's author, said that one reason for this might be that "when you have more money, you have more choices about how to live your life." However, Killingsworth also said that income is only one of many things that might affect a person's happiness.
💰Summary💰
越有錢就真的越快樂嗎？之前有項2010年的研究顯示，一個人賺的錢越多，他們就會感到更快樂，但有一個限制哦，有這種傾向的人只限於一年收入不超過75,000美金。超過這個收入的人，就不一定了。不過現在有份研究打臉之前的數據，指出一個人賺的錢越多，他們就真的越快樂。甚至對年收入數十萬美金的人亦是如此。
