Psychologists at the University of British Columbia set out to find an answer to this long time question. The researchers recruited volunteers to taste a piece of chocolate, but before tasting the delicious treat they were shown a picture. One group was shown a picture of money while the other was shown a neutral picture. After the experiment the researchers concluded that the group of participants that were shown the picture of money before eating the chocolate spent less time eating the chocolate and were observed enjoying it less. In conclusion the researchers argued that because wealth allows you to experience the best that life has to offer, it undermines your ability to enjoy life's little pleasures. I know you would want to argue that if you were gifted with wealth your life would be much happier but would it really?
My favorite post was How to Spot a Liar because her post was short, easy to read, and to the point, she also had a good video to go along with it.
My next favorite was A Family of Geese because it was well written, and a great topic I found enjoyable to read.
My third favorite was Why People Don't Like to Touch Strangers because it was a fun topic that was well structured and had an good flow to it.
Funny pic! However, on the more serious note, this is a great topic. I have always wanted to be a doctor and the question that is on my mind as of late is why do I really want to be a doctor? Is it for the money? Part of me thinks it may be. I really want to do something that I love to do though. It will make for getting up to go to work each day that much more enjoyable!
