Eight ways you can thrive—solo
八種方法,讓你可以獨自成長茁壯

Live solo? You’re not alone. Recently released census data shows that 31 million people live by their lonesome—that’s a jump of 4 million since 2000. That means that over a quarter of people live on their own. Taking the current state of the economy into consideration, those figures are even more astonishing.
獨自生活?你並不孤單。最近公佈的人口普查數據顯示,有3.1億人生活在寂寞裡,這是一個自2000年以來,從 400萬開始增長迄今的數據。這意味著,超過四分之一的人是獨自自己生活的。若是考慮到目前的經濟狀況,這些數字更是驚人。
