你的朋友剛剛給你講了一個故事,講的是一個大學時的朋友,她很富有,但是仍然覺得自己掙的錢不夠。你想表明你理解你朋友故事的意思。你這樣說,用更一般的方式總結。

Yeah, people have a tendency to be unsatisfied with how much they make, no matter what their income is.

no matter what, when, why, etc.

​釋義:

used to emphasize that something is always true, or that someone must do something

不管甚麼/何時/為甚麼等

例句:

We’ve got to get to the airport on time, no matter what.

總之,我們必須按時到機場,不管用甚麼辦法。

no matter what (something) is = 不管(某物)是什麼

用這個短語來解釋在任何情況下都是一樣的,而且情況並不重要。

Ideally, you should get it done as quickly as possible, no matter what the deadline is.

在上面的例子中,”no matter what their income is” 意味著這個人的收入並不重要。窮人不滿足,富人也不滿足。
