From Socrates, Aristotle and Mill and Lombardo we have learned new ways of thinking about what a good life might look like. We can notice some patterns. For example. None of these authors write that the good means having a good job and money and stuff. But all of them argue for the benefits of virtue and knowledge. They recommend self-knowledge, and speak about living well as requiring particular skills. Do these thinkers seem to you to be persuasive and informed about what life is really like?

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for someone to live a decent life, they need money. Money buys food, toiletries, pays rent, and with it you cannot cover your basic need and this will lead to a very stressful life. I therefore say that having a job is important, especially if you come from a poor background, when you are an adult you can no longer rely on your parents, in most cases your parents rely on you. Self-knowledge is very important, but it should not be used to replace the importance of economic emancipation of an individual.
