When I talk about money this way to a group, there is always someone who comes up to me and says, " Suze, you are so wrong. Money isn't the key to life—this is!" At which point their wallet flies open and they show me a photo of their family.
That's when things get interesting, because I start asking them questions: Did you take that photo with your own camera? It looks like a beautiful beach, was the photo taken on a family vacation? Do you hope to help those beautiful boys and girls go to college?
As their answers are "yes" , I ask them how they provide all of that for their family. That's when they understand that I had it right.
I totally agree that family and friends are of great importance to our well being; without meaningful relationships, there's no chance of ever being truly happy. That's why, every Saturday night, I end my CNBC show with the following words:" People first. Then money. Then things. "
How we deal with the money we have also plays into our happiness. Over the past few decades (十年), the percentage of Americans who say they're happy hasn't changed much, while at the same time the average income has doubled. So we have more money, but we're not much happier on average.
A paradox(悖论) ? Far from it. My sense is that while we're making more money, we aren't making more of the money we make. We have to pay for a lot of things, and we have to worry a-bout saving for retirement (退休) in a way that our parents and grandparents never did. And as man-y of you know, it's really hard to increase your happiness when you've got a lot of money worries.
Do you agree, or am I way off base? I'd love to know what do you think about the money/ happiness connection.
Why do people often show the author their family photos?
A.They hope to show money is very important.
B.They want to prove they can afford a holiday.
C.They think a good family makes them truly happy.
D.They believe a happy person considers people first.

Searching for Smiles
1 Ask most people anywhere in the world what they want out of life and the reply with probably be:"to be happy."Ed Deiner, an American psychology professor, has spend his Whole professional life studying what makes people happy comparing levels of happiness between cultures and trying to find out exactly why we enjoy ourselves.
2 Many people would say that this question does not need an answer.But Professor Denier has one anyway."If you're a cheerful,happy person,your marriage is more likely to last,and you're more likely to make money and be successful at your job.On average,happy people have stronger immune(免疫的)systems,and there is Some evidence that they live Longer"
3 So who are the world's happiest people? It depends on how the word is defined. There is individual happiness。the sense of joy we get when we do something we like.But there is also the feeling of satisfaction we get when we know that others respect us and approve of how we behave.According to Professor Deiner,the Western world pursues individual happiness while Asia prefers mutual satisfaction.
4 "In the West,the individualistic(个人主义的)culture means that your mood matters much more than it does in the East.People ask themselves,what can I do that's fun or interesting? They become unhappy when they can't do any of these things.If you ask people from Japan or China if they are happy.they tend to Look at what has gone wrong in their lives.If not much has gone wron9。then they are satisfied."
5 People from Spain and other Spanish—speaking countries had the happiest culture. Professor Deiner found."The biggest cultural difference is to do with pride and shame.Hispanic(西班牙语言的) ultures report much more pride and much less shame than others."
6 Income also made a big difference to people's happiness,but only at the lowest levels.Average income earners in the US were much happier than people in poverly.But millionaires were only a little bit happier than people on average incomes。It seems that money makes US happy when we have enough to feel secure.
7 But can we be too happy?" You get people who are actually happy,but they think happiness is so important that they try to be even happier.This desire to be always happy is a product of individualism,where the emphasis is on you individually.your emotions and feeling good.People can end up feeling unhappy because ordinary
happiness is not good enough for them."
