Most people believe the key to happy and productive retirement years is staying healthy. Yet, it’s not just about diet and exercise. How you manage your money often determines your level of stress, which, if too high, may lead to chronic health problems like heart diseases.
So you’ll have to do more than switch to whole wheat and start jogging every day. Your health also depends on feeling good about and in control of your finances. Not a lot of people understand that—and relatively few are doing much about it.
In a survey, Principal Financial found that just 48% of American workers are monitoring their spending—down from 58% two years ago. Fewer are reevaluating their investments, and while more are using a budget, the rate is still low at just 28%. In other words, they are casual about their money.
Most American workers see the link between wealth and health as one directional: Staying healthy is the ticket to saving on healthcare costs and to financial security in retirement. In the survey, 84% said being physically healthy is good for their financial future and 76% said if they spend money on their health or things they enjoy now they will avoid major health costs later in life.
Yet it’s not that simple. Good health comes with its own financial demands. Living healthy means living longer, which is wonderful. But without a traditional pension or other source of guaranteed lifetime income how will you pay for all those extra years? You’ll need to save tens of thousands of dollars more than you may have figured in your lifetime—and still there is no guarantee you won’t need costly, end-of-life services.
None of this is to say that living longer and healthier isn’t a blessing, and probably even less a demand on your resources than developing chronic illness and passing away early. But the link between financial health and physical health goes both ways. In the survey, workers were far more likely to rate themselves physically healthy(53%)than financially healthy(31%), suggesting they see it as a one-way street. But it’s also the case that feeling in control of your wealth—no matter how much you have—leads to better health.
In the last paragraph, "one-way street" probably means______.
选项
A、financial health leads to physical health
B、physical health leads to financial health
C、financial health equals physical health
D、financial health repels physical health
答案
B
解析
在最后一段,作者说健康的身体和健康的经济之间是双向的,也就是健康的身体能创造财富,同时财富也有助于身体健康,但工人们却认为是单向的。结合上文,可以肯定地说“单向”指的是身体健康就不用花钱,就能“不差钱”。
