As executives (高级管理人员) with banks, consulting firms, established law firms, and major corporations, many are now 1 on their way to impressive careers. By society’s 2 , they seem to have it made.On the surface, these people seem to be very lucky in life. As they left student life behind, many had a 3 drink at their cheap but friendly local bar, shook hands with longtime roommates, and 4 out of small apartments into high buildings. They made reservations at restaurants where the cost of a bottle of wine 5 a college year’s monthly rent. They replaced their beloved old cars with expensive new sports cars.The thing is, a number of them have 6 that despite their success, they aren’t happy. Some 7 of unfriendly coworkers and feel sad for eight-hour workweeks devoted to tasks they 8 . Some do not respect the companies they work for and talk of feeling tired and 9 .

They have loans, bills, a mortgage (抵押贷款) to 15 , retirement to save for. They recognize there’s something 6 in their lives, but it’s 7 to step off the track.In a society that tends to 8 everything in terms of dollars and cents, we learn from a young age to consider the costs of our 9 in financial terms. But what about the personal and social costs 0 in pursuing money over meaning? These are exactly the kinds of costs many of us tend to ignore — and the very ones we need to consider most.
