Money can buy you happiness but only if you earn £50,000 a year – after that you really have to work for it, a study claims.

Earning less than that amount can make you miserable – but earning more does not greatly increase enjoyment of life, it was found.

Researchers found that life contentment only rose steadily with annual income up to level – $75,000, or just below £50,000.

The psychologists Prof Daniel Kahneman and Prof Angus Deaton explained people's life evaluations rise steadily with income but the quality of emotional daily experiences levels-off once earnings reach a certain amount.

Life evaluations were measured by asking 1,000 respondents to rate their lives on a scale of zero to 10 while emotional wellbeing was measured according to experiences of certain positive and negative emotions the previous day.

The data also suggested the emotional pain of unfortunate events or circumstances including disease, divorce and being alone are exacerbated by poverty.

The researchers said the study does not imply people's lives will not improve after a raise in annual income from $100,000 (£64,900) to $150,000 (£97,350).

最新研究表明,金钱的确能买来幸福,但前提是你恰好年入5万英镑。如果你挣得更多,幸福不幸福就要靠你自己争取了。

研究称,收入低于5万英镑会使人痛苦,但高于5万英镑也不会大大增加幸福感。

一旦收入超出这一范围,家庭、幸福感等生活中的重要因素就会大大弱化金钱的地位。

但受访者也表示,当收入低于这一数额时,幸福感会随之下降,失落感和压抑感会上升。这项研究成果发表在《美国国家科学院院刊》上。

心理学家丹尼尔•卡尼曼和安格斯•迪顿教授解释到,虽然人们对生活的评价会随着收入的增加而稳步提高,但是一旦收入达到某个临界值,人们平时体会到的幸福感就会保持平稳。
