Adult Responsibilities Make You Happier
成人的责任会让你更快乐
While many young people may resist getting a "real job" or becoming independent, these are the things that make you happy and give you purpose.

很多年轻人不愿意去找份“像样的工作”或者独立生活，但正是这些东西让你变得快乐、给了你人生的目标。有一些人会低估工作满意度的重要性，觉得憋在格子间里的工作生不如死。真相是，有工作的20几岁的年轻人比那些没有工作的同龄人要活得更快乐。
