"A person's wealth is most likely proportional to his value to society"
I believe you should always hear a sentence:
When I have 2 million, I won't do anything, I won't be as stupid as those rich people, they are tens of millions of dollars, and I'm still desperate.
But this group of people often does not even have 200,000.
In his opinion, rich people are stupid because they don't know how to enjoy.
But why do the richer people be, the more desperately they try to make money?
Why is it that people who keep saying, "I'll do it when I have money," often never get out of poverty for the rest of their lives?
1. One's own wealth is directly proportional to one's own value.
The poorer people are, the more they tend to be short-sighted, and they pursue immediate pleasures.
Think of yourself as the number one priority in the world.
But the law of operation of this world is that one's own wealth is proportional to one's own value, and only by benefiting others can one obtain wealth.
For example, it took me 5 years to devote myself to researching a service app that has made the lives of hundreds of millions of people around the world easier, so that I can get wealth from it.
The richer the person, the more he thinks about how to make things easier for others, and the poorer he is, the more he thinks about how to make himself happy.
Second, there is inertia in hard work.
Rich people become wealthy because they create value through relentless efforts.
Even if they are already very rich, they will not stop because there is inertia in the effort.
Accustomed to running on one thing every day, if one day suddenly has nothing to do, it will be even more tormenting.
Many successful entrepreneurs are lifelong entrepreneurs who may have started in pursuit of wealth.
They are wrong from the bottom of their thinking, and they don't think about how to create more value.
What they think about is how I want to enjoy myself if I have money, and the more people think like that, the less money they can make.
And money tends to go to those who can make money generate more value, rather than people who produce a pile of garbage.
But as time goes by, money is no longer the only motivator, but more about self-worth and social progress.
They make more money, which means that he helps more people, and it means that he has done one more thing to realize his self-worth.
For wealthy people, hard work is their way of life.
For the poor, work is a means of livelihood, a yoke that restricts their freedom.
They struggled to break free, but they had to take it with them.
I just fantasize that if one day I am free of wealth, I will never work again.
Therefore, being down-to-earth, abandoning illusions, and being altruistic is the best self-interest.
