The Rich Have One More Thing You Don't: Better Sleep 

The Rich Have One More Thing You Don't: Better Sleep

It's well known that the wealthy have more than the average human, including exorbitant real estate, sports cars and fine jewelry.

众所周知,富人比普通人拥有更多财富,包括昂贵的房产、跑车和高级珠宝。但是他们还有更多的其他东西——睡眠。

 


Compared to those living near or below the poverty level, the rich sleep more too, according to a study by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The agency surveyed nearly 140,000 adults in the United States between 2011 and 2014 and found that the more money someone made, the more likely they were to get a full night's rest.
美国疾病控制与预防中心的一项研究表明,与生活在贫困线附近或贫困线以下的人相比,富人的睡眠时间也更长。该机构在2011年至2014年期间对美国近14万名成年人进行了调查,结果发现,一个人赚的钱越多,就越有可能得到一整晚的休息。

 

 

Of the adults surveyed, only 55% of people living below the poverty threshold received seven to eight hours of sleep per night. For adults making 400% above the poverty threshold, that number rose to 66.6%. In 2014, the poverty threshold was $11,670 for a single-person household and $23,850 for a four-person household.

在接受调查的成年人中,生活在贫困线以下的人群内只有55%的人每晚睡7到8小时。对于超过贫困线400%的成年人,这个数字上升到66.6%。2014年,个人家庭的贫困线为11670美元,四人家庭的贫困线为23850美元。

 

 

This particular study did not address the negative consequences of not getting enough sleep, said Lindsey Black, an epidemiologist at the CDC. However, there have been other studies that show multiple negative consequences from sleeping too little, she said.

美国疾病控制与预防中心的流行病学家林赛·布莱克表示,这项特别的研究没有解决睡眠不足的负面后果。然而,也有其他研究表明睡眠过少会带来多种负面影响。

 

 

Sleep affects many aspects of well-being and quality of life for people of all ages, Black said. Poor quality sleep has been associated with increased risk of diabetes and heart disease, mental health issues such as depression, and driving accidents, she said.

布莱克说,睡眠对各个年龄段的人的健康和生活质量都有影响。她说,睡眠质量差会增加患糖尿病、心脏病、抑郁等心理健康问题以及驾驶事故的风险。

 

 

'The study also did not look into why the rich sleep more than the poor, but Dr. Neil Kline, a sleep physician at the American Sleep Association, said there could be multiple reasons.

这项研究也没有探究为什么富人比穷人睡得更多,但美国睡眠协会的睡眠医师尼尔·克莱恩博士说,导致这种现象的原因有很多种。

 

 

People with more resources are able to afford homes that are in quieter locations -- more space, less people-density and better sound-proofing, Kline said. "People with more resources can also afford more healthcare when it relates to sleep disorders."

克莱恩说,拥有更多资源的人能够负担得起位于较安静地点的房子——空间更大,人口密度更小,隔音效果更好。“有睡眠障碍时,拥有更多资源的人也能负担得起更多的医疗保健。”
