What makes people happier: money or having happy friends and neighbors? Scientists have found an answer as part of a study.
The new study found that friends of happy people had a greater chance of being happy themselves. And the smaller the distance between friends, the larger the effect they had on each other’s happiness.
For example, a person was 20% more likely to feel happy if a friend who lived within 1.5 kilometers. Having a happy neighbor who lived next door increased the chance of being happy by 34%. The effects of friends’ happiness lasted for up to a year.
The scientists found that sadness also spread among friends, but not as much as happiness.
People who take three degrees out of separation still had an effect on a person’s happiness. Three degrees of separation means the friend of a friend of a friend.
The study showed that having an extra 5,000 dollars increased a person’s chances of becoming happier by about 2%. But the researchers found that the influence of a friend of a friend of a friend can be greater than that.
Another finding is that people who are married or work together do not have as much of an effect on happiness as friends do.
