Money (Part 2 of 7)

Why do Americans emphasize money so much? Well, this "land of plenty" has long enjoyed abundant natural resources, and people have gotten used to material wealth. Besides that, Americans believe that everyone has an equal opportunity to succeed. People aren't bound by social class. They can work hard and improve their status. Many immigrants have come to this land of opportunity for that reason— to seek a better future. This belief in equal opportunity has produced a spirit of competition. lt's like a race to the top of the success ladder.

為什麼美國人這麼強調金錢?嗯,這塊「豐富之地」長久以來享受著豐富的自然資源,而人們也習慣於豐富的物質生活。除此之外,美國人相信每個人都有公平的成功機會。人們不會因出身高低而受限制。他們可以努力工作以改變社會地位。許多移民正是為此原因而來到這塊充滿機會的土地上——為要追求一個更好的未來。這個機會均等的信念,造成了競爭的精神,它就像一場通往成功之梯頂端的比賽一樣。
