普渡大学最近的一项研究表明,在实现幸福方面,新西兰是第七昂贵的国家,其年收入为193,727美元或114,597美元。相比之下,2022年的平均家庭收入约为117,126美元。

该大学的研究评估了收入与生活质量之间的关系,确定了10万至12.5万美元的全球 “幸福收入” 区间。这项最新研究根据幸福成本对164个国家进行了排名,并进一步细分了500多个城市的幸福成本。货币兑换公司S Money使用了该大学的数据来进行该排名。

在这份榜单中,澳大利亚超过了新西兰,成为幸福价格第三高的国家。布里斯班和悉尼等城市是全球十大最昂贵的城市之一,布里斯班的幸福成本达到225,511美元。

从较低的角度来看,塞拉利昂被认为是最负担得起的满足感国家,每年14,711美元。此外,哥伦比亚的布卡拉曼加每年仅为16,900美元,使其成为全球最具成本效益的城市。

在新西兰境内,奥克兰是幸福成本最高的城市,每年需要20.7万美元。同时,研究中最实惠的新西兰城市克赖斯特彻奇每年需要18万美元。

虽然幸福与生活成本之间存在联系,但抵御 “不快乐” 所需的金额也至关重要。伊朗被确定为世界上实现幸福的最昂贵的国家,尽管平均收入要低得多,但其成本定为239,700美元。

此外,关于金钱能否真正买到幸福的长期争论仍在继续。根据哈佛大学心理学系的说法,财富与快乐之间的关系微乎其微。尽管如此,对于那些寻求幸福的人来说,假期被认为是一项重大投资。哈佛大学教授丹尼尔·吉尔伯特认为,期待假期的乐趣往往超过实际经历。人们认为,小规模、频繁的旅行比几次大型、豪华的旅行能带来更多的快乐。
