"covet" isn't a good word to use here. It is too formal and also means jealous. If you want to say a very strong desire, you can say "dream lifestyle".

And they don't need to confront life pressure for hungerface the burden of hunger in life.

Comparinged with the lastprevious generation, they have more time to spend ion entertainment, such as spending rarely time to play computer games, having low giving withthey give less to family and wthey don't save the money for any emergency in the future.

What do you mean by "spending rarely time"? Do you mean 嫌少 - that they spend very little time - or do you mean 难得 - that they spend hard to come by time to play?

This is still a little confusing. It might be better to use more sentences. For example:

Compared with the previous generation, they have more time to spend on entertainment, such as spending time to play computer games. They also give less money to family and don't save money for any emergency in the future.

Those are the rest of the life status of the younger generationis is how the younger generation will be for the rest of their lives, doubtless.

But I don't mean they are not smart people.

Instead, they are a lucky generation that is living in a safe environment, enjoying the convenience of the internet, and benefiting byfrom a global market that has low prices and high-quality products.

Thosese are benefits their parents doidn't have at their age.

thank your feedback. it is very useful.
by the way, I use the coveted because, for my last paragraph, I want to irony speak the democratic party unlimited and irrational subsidies for the poor.
So do you think "coveted" still fix in this sentence?
Finally, thank you that you translated some of the words in Chinese more easily to explain to me.

"In my view, the current generation has more options to choose their coveted lifestyle." means "In my opinion, the current generation has more opportunity to choose the lifestyle that they want" (我认为这一代人有更多机会选择他们想要的生活方式). If this isn't your meaning, here are some different ways to say this sentence. Maybe one of them has the meaning you want:
____
1) In my view, the current generation has more options for obtaining a comfortable, happy lifestyle. (meaning: this generation can take different life paths and still reach a good life - they can choose to be a farmer, a scientist, a teacher, 如此等等 . Whatever they choose, they will have enough money and food)
...
2) In my view, the current generation has more options to obtain the kind of lifestyle that previous generations had to work hard for. (meaning: this generation is lucky and a little lazy. Other generations had to do hard work to earn enough money to have a good lifestyle. But this generation can have a good lifestyle even if they don't work hard. Family or the government will give them food or money if they need it.)
...
3) In my view, the current generation is better able to choose the lifestyle they desire. (meaning: this generation can make smart choices that will result in the life they want. They have freedom to make those choices. They know which choices are good because of education or learning from previous generations.)
...
4) In my view, the current generation is privileged to have more options for obtaining a comfortable, happy lifestyle. (meaning: this generation should feel grateful for the options that they have because not everyone has those options or had those options. They can take any life path and always have enough money and food.)
...
5) In my opinion, the current generation has more opportunity to choose the kind of lifestyle that previous generations could only dream of. (meaning: This generation should feel grateful. They have the opportunity to have a very good life. Other generations worked very hard but could not have a life as good because the world and society were different than they are now.)
__________________________
Are any of those closer to the meaning you want?
