Whillans, a professor at
8、HBS said, “Buying time helps to protect us from the stress in our lives caused by time pressure, and the feeling that we don t have enough minutes in the day to complete our tasks. The effect was clearest in the Canadian experiment, in which 60 working adults were given $40 to spend in two different
9、 ways. One weekend, they were told to spend the money on a material purchasea gift for themselves. The next weekend, they were instructed to spend the $40 on anything that saved them time, from paying the neighbors kid to run errands (跑腿) to taking a Uber instead of a bus. “On the day they made the
