提前退休放飛心靈 protirement

前一陣延遲退休的消息讓許多在壓力下茍延殘喘的底層白領們感覺更加悲慘，但其實換一個思路，如果工作讓你那么不快樂，你也可以選擇protirement——提前退休去追求自己熱愛的生活方式。當然前提是你有足夠的財力支持或資金儲備。

Protirement is retiring or quitting an unattractive job to pursue work or hobbies more suited to one's personality.

“提前退休”指的是辭去已經沒有吸引力的工作，轉而追求更適合自己個性的事業或愛好。

More than 80% of 30-to 35-year-old professionals claim they are unhappy at work, worn down by a combination of stress, boredom and the feeling that their job isn't giving back as much as they put into it.

超過80%的30歲到35歲的專業人士聲稱自己工作時并不快樂，壓力、厭倦、感到工作中投入和回報并不對等，這些都讓他們身心俱疲。

For many, that realisation leaves a straight choice between continuing in a career that pays well but makes them miserable, and doing something less lucrative but more fulfilling — a lifestyle option that has been dubbed "protirement". According to research, one in 15 under-35s is already "protired".

許多人都意識到這樣一個選擇，是繼續在薪水豐厚卻讓自己感覺悲慘的職場道路上走下去，還是做一些賺錢不多卻讓自己心靈充實的事情——后者被稱為protirement。根據調查，35歲以下的人15個當中就有1個已經“提前退休”了。
