Many people say that this is an era of looking at faces. Although it's a bit one-sided, we have to admit that in contemporary society, appearance can really bring different economic values. So what do you mean by cosmetic economics?
What does value economics mean
Not long ago, a group of scholars did a research to find out whether the higher the face value, the higher the income in the workplace. The research results tell us a little heavily that this is really a face society. The people who suffer the most from looks will even earn more than 20% less than others & hellip; & hellip; and handsome men are more affected by looks than beautiful women. Everyone has a love for beauty, and truth is often the most simple. It is undeniable that this is a face society, although it is a fact that many people are reluctant to admit. People nowadays don't have much patience to understand the interesting soul under your ugly skin.
Some netizens jokingly said that the long handsome talents are equipped with youth, dreams and love, while the ugly ones can only go to the 'dog belt'. We can see from the campus flowers and school grass that there are no lack of pursuers around them. However, the ugly people who are short, poor and frustrated have to work hard to rewrite their life destiny. Even in the case of equal strength, usually, those whose face value is below the average need to pay more efforts and sweat to achieve the goal.
Most of the time, our on-line and off-line display and communication are all in the dissemination of our personal design, so as to get feedback. Through this external stimulation, we can strengthen our self-awareness, become better ourselves, and realize the leap forward of personality. Only a very small part of human beings are genetically superior. They are born to be beautiful, and the longer they go, the more beautiful they are. They are all in favor of each other. Therefore, they pay more attention to their appearance and constantly take beautiful photos to make their influence greater.
However, it doesn't mean that we are going to be downcast if we don't have enough face. Most of the people in the high-value group gain bonus points by deliberately learning and maintaining good habits. You may not be in the spotlight, but please don't let your skin bag that you don't take care of and don't clean up drag you down, and let the world have no patience to understand your knowledge, ability and wisdom, and miss you such a prodigy. Beauty, like wisdom and family background, is a kind of resource. I don't advocate simply pursuing the realization of beauty. This is the most stupid means, which is the classic 'Dutch disease' in economics. I suggest that we should cultivate beauty deeply and pursue added value.
Where is the origin of value for money economics
'face value' first came from Japan. It means' face 'and' appearance '; and' value 'refers to' index '. Therefore, it can be understood as' beauty index', which has many similarities with the concept of 'competitiveness' in the field of economic management. "Competitiveness" refers to the comprehensive ability reflected by the competition or comparison between two or more participants. It is a relative index and can only be expressed through competition. Generally speaking, competitiveness can be divided into size or strength, and 'beauty' is a branch of 'competitiveness' because it can be divided into strength and weakness through the competition of appearance and charm. Because competition is everywhere, and as a kind of "competitiveness" of segmentation, the "face value" also reflects the "economic spillover" effect brought by its "competitive advantage". Research by economists Daniel Hamermesh and Jeff Biddle shows that a person who looks below the average earns 9% less per hour, while a person who looks above the average earns 5% more per hour. If the 14% difference is magnified to a lifetime, the income gap between them may reach as much as 230000 US dollars (1.5 million RMB). According to an article published by the economist, power belongs to leaders with higher appearance. No matter in the gorilla community or in today's western developed countries, to reach the highest point of their career, a leader's appearance (including height, muscle, voice, intonation, etc.) is as important as his achievement. There is also an old Chinese saying: "those who win the hearts of the people win the world.". Nowadays, this sentence has been reinterpreted by many people as: "those who get beauty get people's heart, and those who get people's heart get the world.". '
