Think!
Translated as follows:
To domesticate crows, you should cut off the wings and tail feathers. Cut off the end of the crow's wings and tail feathers. Crows can't fly or feed, so they can only rely on people to give them something to eat. How could it disobey?
The same is true of a wise monarch and a minister. In terms of material means, officials had to covet the salary given by the monarch, and the social status of the enfeoffment system forced officials to serve the monarch.
So, how can they not obey the salary given to him by the monarch and serve in the position given by the monarch?
These are the laws discovered by the ancients. What about modern?
Who did we sell ourselves to for that salary and position?
Most people's time does not belong to themselves, but to their bosses. They have contributed their whole lives and created labor value to the boss, just for a little living expenses.
What is even more frightening is that many people can't get rid of this invisible shackles all their lives.
The essence of capitalism is to exploit the surplus value of labor force.
But you can't help it.
In the movie The Shawshank Redemption, Rhett said it very well:
Those high walls are interesting. You hated it when you were in prison. Slowly, you get used to living in it, and finally you find that you can't live without it because it gives you a sense of security.
But is this sense of security really reliable?
Huawei cleans up the bottom R&D personnel over 35 years old. "You are fired, nothing more, just old."
When one day, your ability can't keep up with the development of the company, do you think you will be treated well? Even if state-owned enterprises don't easily dismiss employees, they will give you 5,000 wages ten years ago and still give you 5,000 wages ten years later. In fact, it is already a kind of salary reduction (passive salary reduction).
The future is long and everything is hard to say. There is no stable job in the future, only stable ability.
There is only one sense of security in the future: you can take food everywhere.
Recently, many people are talking about the 996 working system. In Internet companies, 996 is nothing new.
Many people go out at 8 am and go home at 9 pm. They were so tired that they fell asleep after taking a shower. Tomorrow is another day, day after day. The boss certainly likes such employees.
But have you ever thought? Is there any progress?
In the words of American growth instructors, there is no time to think about the future, so how can we get the future?
Rockefeller also said: People who work all day have no time to earn money.
Do you do a lot of work every day, but how much progress have you made?
How long has it been since you read? Is it too tired to relax after work by brushing video?
Are your thinking and vision getting more and more limited?
Do you really think about the future?
What if one day, you are passively eliminated because of your incompetence?
Why is there a gap between people? Why is the gap between students in the same class more and more obvious after ten or twenty years?
In fact, this is not a gap in ability, but a gap in vision, pattern and thinking.
In this era when "Internet thinking" is overused, it is not the Internet that is invincible, but thinking.
Some people will see that in ten years' time, they will plan their lives and their investments.
Some people only see what is in front of them and make blind efforts every day.
As time goes on, the gap between these two kinds of people will get bigger and bigger.
Recently, China Merchants Bank released its 20 18 annual report, and we saw one of the data. China Merchants Bank announced that the total number of retail customers reached 654.38+25 million, a year-on-year increase of 18%.
Among them, there are 72,000 private customers, that is, super customers whose daily average assets exceed10000 million, with total assets exceeding 2 trillion, which means that 5/ 10000 people account for 30% of the wealth; (72000/65438+25 million =0.000576, about five ten thousandths)
The customers of sunflower are almost middle class, high-end customers with daily average assets of more than 500,000, reaching 2.36 million, with total assets exceeding 5.5 trillion, that is, 1.9% of the people account for 8 1% of the wealth (2.36 million/65438+25 million = 0.01)
—— The data is quoted from the 20 18 annual report of China Merchants Bank.
The above quotation comes from my official WeChat account article Matthew Effect: Why are the poor getting poorer and the rich getting richer? How to get rich?
I don't want to complain with you, it's the most useless performance.
Encountering problems will only show that the problem is the primary level, and thinking and solving problems is the advanced level.
What I really want is freedom. I don't want to quarrel with the noodle shop owner for losing two pieces of beef. I don't want to sell my time for that little living expenses.
There is a phenomenon in society: why do white-collar workers with a monthly income of 30 thousand feel anxious?
The answer is, because your income posture is wrong.
If the income of 30,000 yuan is composed like this: monthly salary 1 1,000 yuan, and the rent of the other four houses is 20,000 yuan, he will never be anxious.
Do you know why white-collar workers are anxious? Because 30,000 white-collar workers are young, they may be lost at any time.
Just like the employees of ZTE before, the annual salary was one million, but ZTE needed to lay off employees because of the crisis, and this executive was on the list of layoffs.
The supervisor had no idea. Losing this annual salary, his family immediately collapsed. Because wages account for too much of family income and the gap is too big, he chose to kill himself.
Yes, most families earn most of their income through work, and the proportion of passive income without work is very low.
Therefore, Robert Toru Kiyosaki, the author of Poor Dad Rich Dad, put it very well: You should hold assets, not liabilities.
Therefore, you should learn to invest.
In order to be free, you don't have to sell time to survive.
Here "money" can refer to: money, houses, enterprises, stocks, works, invention patents, etc.
For example, if you have a house for rent, you will be charged 3,000 yuan a month. This 3 thousand is the money for working for you, which is what people call passive income.
You don't need to spend time and energy on this money. Passive income will come into your pocket automatically on a regular basis.
It is better to give money to establish a money-making system.
It is said that the rich build a money-making system, and the poor make money by their own labor; The rich live on passive income, while the poor live on principal, which is also swallowed up by inflation.
Nietzsche once said, "Every day when you never dance is a disappointment to your life.".
May you, like Andy in The Shawshank Redemption, finally break through the cage and fly to the sky, with every feather on your body full of freedom.
Stop working for money and realize financial freedom!
