具体描述
Two professors combine their fascinating and cutting-edge research in behavioral science to explain how money can buy happiness—if you follow five core principles of smart spending.
Most people recognize that they need professional advice on how to earn, save, and invest their money. When it comes to spending that money, most people just follow their intuitions. But scientific research shows that those intuitions are often wrong.
Happy Money offers a tour of research on the science of spending, explaining how you can get more happiness for your money. Authors Elizabeth Dunn and Michael Norton have outlined five principles—from choosing experiences over stuff to spending money on others—to guide not only individuals looking for financial security, but also companies seeking to create happier employees and provide “happier products” to their customers. Dunn and Norton show how companies from Google to Pepsi to Charmin have put these ideas into action.
Along the way, Dunn and Norton explore fascinating research that reveals that luxury cars often provide no more pleasure than economy models, that commercials can actually enhance the enjoyment of watching television, and that residents of many cities frequently miss out on inexpensive pleasures in their hometowns. By the end of this “lively and engaging book” (Dan Gilbert, author of Stumbling on Happiness), you’ll be asking yourself one simple question every time you reach for your wallet: Am I getting the biggest happiness bang for my buck?

早晨起来翻了一下，五个观点：buy experience, make it a treat, buy time, invest others, buy now consume later.我支持buy experience 和 buy time，花钱买的是未来消费这个东西的时间，不是这个东西
评分##几句话说明白了的事情能卖出一本书来絮絮叨叨。。。
评分##It's about how to spend money, how to invest in your life. To buy long term things, to buy experience rather material, things that make you freer instead of busier i.e. to buy free time, pay for others rather than only urself. You will feel happier than otherwise.
评分##读完怀疑自己是不是学过英语，明明可以用简洁通俗的语言表达，不知道为什么要加入那么多生僻的词汇增加阅读障碍。竟然看到有人评论语言通俗，你是认真的吗？刚读完How to measure your life?那才叫通俗好么，一口气读完酣畅淋漓，如果不是喜欢的教授力荐，早就要撕书了。

评分##喷了，五个道理港了一本书。当作者摆出富人未必幸福过穷人这一结论的时候，以及末尾处作者说哎呀政府可以提高一下烟草税来保障人们健康辣！我的内心是崩溃的……
