Among younger groups, 31% accounted for the highest proportion of happiness, and another mentioned 22% by doing hobbies. Having a good appearance and travelling were mentioned by 18% and 15%, respectively, while other factors contributed just 14%.
In comparison, among older groups, 32% attributed the majority of their happiness to achievement at work as the most enjoyable factor, and 24% cited doing hobbies for fun. Comparatively, financial security and being with family were the other reasons, at 20% and 14%, respectively, while other factors constituted half of the proportion of financial security, at 10%.
