　　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(高級(jí)管理人員) with banks, consulting firms, established law firms, and major corporations, many are now

　　21

　　on their way to impressive careers. By society’s

　　22

　　, 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

　　23

　　drink at their cheap but friendly local bar, shook hands with Longtime roommates, and

　　24

　　out of small apartments into high buildings. They made reservations at restaurants where the cost of a bottle of wine

　　25

　　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

　　26

　　that despite their success, they aren’t happy. Some

　　27

　　of unfriendly coworkers and feel sad for eight-hour workweeks devoted to tasks they

　　28

　　. Some do not respect the companies they work for and talk of feeling tired and

　　29 . However, instead of devoting themselves to their work, they find themselves working to support the

　　35

　　, retirement to save for. They recognize there’s something

　　36

　　in their lives, but it’s

　　37

　　to step off the track.

　　In a society that tends to

　　38

　　everything in terms of dollars and cents, we learn form a young age to consider the costs of our

　　39

　　in financial terms. But what about the personal and social costs

　　40

　　in pursuing money over meaning? These are exactly the kinds of us tend to ignore — and the very ones we need to consider most.
