How much is the happiness of marriage? How much can be assessed depression after the divorce? The exact answer to these strange questions received by Australian scientists.
As a rule, men do not hurry to the altar too, preferring to enjoy the freedom of the latter. That's only true happiness promises them not divorced, namely family life.
Professor Paul Frayters interviewed 10 thousand persons in the period since 2001. He wanted to determine the cash equivalent of such events in a person's life, such as marriage, divorce and illness. It was found that on average, men appreciate the happiness of marriage to 18 thousand pounds. Women are twice more moderate in their emotions - the whole 9000.
But divorce is becoming stronger sex for a disaster. Men have compared the event to the loss of as much as 61,500 pounds. And how little soul a divorce affects women! Ladies in a divorce, on average, lose the whole of 5000.
The birth of a baby in the degree of happiness by men evaluated in the same way as a marriage - 18 thousand. But the death of a loved one or a child as much as comparable to the loss of 350 thousand pounds. "Soulless" women evaluated the loss of 73 thousand.
As we can see, men are much more emotional and in matters of happiness and depression. But how Professor Fraytersu able to calculate the sum of all of these?
He asked survey participants to determine the different events of your life on a scale. And then just replace the figures comparable cash equivalents. "I was surprised how much the loss of a loved one is worth more than its purchase, - he says. - 350 thousand to 18! This is worth thinking about."
