Layard (2003) argues that “The good society is the one where people are happiest. And the right action is the one which produces the greatest happiness.” In the recent society, the value of people’s happiness has much changed by individualism and materialism.

According to suggested research of ‘Effects on happiness’ by Layard (2003), however, when family income decreases 33% relative to the average, it has an influence on only 1 index of reduction in happiness. In contrast, ‘Family separation’ indicates the highest falling index (4.5), and ‘Unemployed’ and ‘Health’ show the second highest falling index(3). It shows the importance of the family and health is greater than money.
