The main characters in superhero movies, they always hide their superpowers and don't show them until necessary. It's the same with rich people, they're like superheroes with superpowers, it's just that their superpower is wealth. They know that if they show off too much, they will attract unnecessary trouble and jealousy.
If you were a superhero and you had a fortune in your hand that could save the world, would you shout it out?Would you tell someone?Of course not. Because you know that once you say it, you're going to be the target of the crowd and you're going to be targeted by the bad guys. In the same way, the same goes for rich people, they know that their wealth is their weakness, so they need to keep a low profile to avoid being targeted by the bad guys.
Why do rich people keep a low profile?Actually, the reason is very simple. First, they want to protect their wealth. If they always flaunt their wealth, then they will attract the attention of thieves, and they will invite unnecessary trouble and losses. Second, they want to protect their privacy. Rich people's lives are not as easy as we think, and they also have their own worries and stresses. If they always expose their wealth and privacy, then it will attract unwanted attention and distraction.
So, we have to learn from the rich Xi and learn to keep a low profile. Whether we have wealth or not, we have to learn not to flaunt our accomplishments and wealth. We need to learn to respect others and not become arrogant because we have achieved something. We must learn to be humble and cautious so that we can better survive and thrive in society.
Whatever we have, we should be humble and cautious.
