Don’t make money a top priority. People who say money is one of their most important goals score lower for mental health, according to a variety of studies conducted over the past decade by Dr. Tim Kasser, associate psychology professor at Knox College, and Dr. Richard Ryan, psychology professor at the University of Rochester. Money-seekers suffer a greater risk of depression; have more anxiety and lower self-esteem; experience more physical,behavioral and relationship problems; and score lower on indicators testing for vitality (feeling alive and vigorous) and self-actualization. The problems were not caused by being affluent but by making money a primary goal in life. 去书内
