問題詳情:
Since finishing my studies at Harvard and Oxford. I've watched one friend after another land high-ranking, high-paying Wall Street jobs. As executives(高階管理人員) with banks, consulting firms, established law firms, and major corporations, many are now 61 on their way to impressive careers. By society’s 62 , 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 63 drink at their cheap but friendly local bar, shook hands with Longtime roommates, and 64 out of small apartments into high buildings. They made reservations at restaurants where the cost of a bottle of wine 65 a college year's monthly rent. They replaced their beloved old car with expensive new sports cars.
The thing is, a number of them have 66 that despite their success, they aren’t happy. Some 67 of unfriendly coworkers and feel sad for eight-hour workweeks devoted to tasks they 68 . Some do not respect the companies they work for and talk of feeling tired and 69 . However, instead of devoting themselves to their work, they find themselves working to support the 70 to which they have so quickly become 71 .
People often speak of trying a more satisfying path, and 72 the end the idea of leaving, their jobs to work for something they 73 or finding a position that would give them more time with their families almost always leads them to the same conclusion; it’ s 74 . They have loans, bills, a mortgage(抵押貸款)to 75 , retirement to save for. They recognize there’s something 76 in their lives , but it’s 77 to step off the track.
In a society that tends to 78 everything in terms of dollars and cents, we learn form a young age to consider the costs of our 79 in financial terms. But what about the personal and social costs 80 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.
