As Americans gather with their
family and friends for Thanksgiving dinner, they're being fed some grim
home truths from the Pew Research Centre.
Asked to rate what gave their life meaning, researchers found more people mentioned career and money, than friends or religion.
Two-thirds of those surveyed said family was a source of satisfaction.
But close to a third also cited work, while 23% said their finances made their lives meaningful.
Researchers
conducted the survey late last year, asking nearly 5,000 Americans an
open-ended question about what parts of their lives gave them
satisfaction and fulfilment. Answers included pets, hobbies,
grandchildren and travel.
