Can we buy happiness? This perennial question is back at the top of the agenda.
我们能买到幸福吗?这一永恒的问题正再度回到首要议程上来。
Pharrell Williams, whose gloriously catchy song “Happy” is the biggest international hit in years, declares that you are happy “if you feel like a room without a roof”. Carlos Slim, the Mexican telecoms magnate who was the world’s richest man for many years, suggests that it is time, rather than money, that we should value. He has proposed a three-day working week. People could work three 11-hour days and then enjoy their family.
法瑞尔•威廉姆斯(Pharrell Williams)唱过一首极其动人的歌曲《幸福》(Happy),多年来一直位列全球最热门歌曲。他在歌里唱到,“如果你感觉自己是一个没有屋顶的房间”,那么你就是幸福的。曾多年位居全球富豪榜首位的墨西哥电信业大亨卡洛斯•斯利姆(Carlos Slim)认为,我们应该重视的是时间,而非金钱。他提出每周工作3天。人们可以每周工作3天,每天工作11小时,接下来就享受与家人一起的时光。
The idea stirred up much reaction, but it made sense. Latin countries have a working day with a siesta for lunches, or mixing with family. Even though they are poorer in economic terms, many visiting Americans and northern Europeans have the sense that they are happier.
这个建议激起了很大反响,但它是合理的。拉美国家在工作日有午睡时间,或者去吃午餐或者与家人团聚。尽管从经济上来说,他们较为贫穷,但很多来到拉美的美国人和北欧人感觉他们更幸福。
