Investment downgrade. Recently, there is a hot word on the Internet "the middle class does not want to die three-piece set": investing in shops, quitting their jobs to start a business, and full-time **.
Many people are too optimistic about the economic situation, blindly invest, and eventually lose even the original stable life.
Tell the story of two of my friends.
A friend is an executive of a ** company in Shenzhen, with an annual salary of one million.
His wife is a stay-at-home wife, and the two have a pair of children.
Last year, considering that the eldest was going to school, they wanted to sell the small third house in their hands and replace it with a better school district house.
But the house couldn't be sold for a long time, and the couple was anxious about their children's schooling, so they borrowed 1.5 million with their friends and another 2 million to buy a house in the school district.
I never thought that as soon as they bought the house, their friends would be laid off, and since then, hundreds of resumes have been submitted and nothing has been heard from.
But he still has a large family to support, and he still has a mortgage of nearly 20,000 yuan to repay every month, and the compensation for leaving his job was quickly spent.
The former middle-class elite had to choose to cut off supply and borrow money everywhere to survive.
Another friend is a technical specialist in a large bank, with a salary of more than 10,000 yuan per month.
But one day, he listened to a friend's suggestion and invested in a chain restaurant project.
He spent more than 400,000 yuan of his savings and borrowed loans from three banks.
But then when the epidemic hit, my friend's investment was also lost, not to mention losing all the principal, and he also owed a lot of debt to the bank.
Writer Lian Yue said:
The standard of investment is that you have to settle your family's life in advance, and then you have spare money to investAfter the investment fails, you have to ensure that your family has enough food and clothing, and if you fail to follow this standard, you will be killed by the investment.
In the coming years, all kinds of uncertainties remain, and I suggest you:
1.Empty your debts and use your credit cards less often;
2.Don't invest blindly, try to choose a sound investment strategy;
3.Don't go all-in on anything, and have at least one or two years of family savings on the card.
Employment downgrade. Ryoko Interview tells a 35-year-old interviewee who received an offer from a junior company after being laid off by a large company.
He bluntly said that he still had some industry self-esteem, and he still wanted to go to a bigger platform, so he refused.
He thinks that with his qualifications, it is easy to find a company similar to his previous one, but the reality is that there are very few applicants for his resume.
Everyone should feel that it has become more and more difficult to find a job in recent years.
Taiwan's Ministry of Labor's "Reemployment of Workers After Unemployment" has survey data showing that
Once a person over the age of 45 is unemployed, it takes an average of 6 months to find a new job, and 336% can't find a new job or give up.
I have unemployed friends around me, and when I was looking for a job, I repeatedly cut my salary, not seeking the right position, but just wanting to join the company as soon as possible, because the mortgage waits for no one.
In the next 3 years, the employment situation will be even more brutal, and you need to follow the following three rules.
1.Let's live first.
Once you are unemployed, you understand what it means to be overwhelmed.
In the days when there is no income, car loans, housing loans, children's education expenses, and daily living expenses have all become problems.
As Yu Minhong said: When a person is faced with the problem of survival, live first.
As long as this job does not tarnish your personality, no matter how tired you are, you don't like it, as long as it can bring you an income, you can do it first. ”
The world is difficult, and there is no shame in holding on for the time being.
2.Cherish the current unit.
In January this year, Google suddenly announced that it would lay off 12,000 employees, followed by IBM joining the layoff army, laying off 3,900 people, and at the end ......of March, Microsoft also announced that it would lay off 10,000 employees
In this era of rapid change, if you are still in class, you have already outperformed most people.
So, cherish your existing job and be kind to your unit.
A salary that comes on time can keep you afloat, and a good job that can shelter you from the wind and rain.
When the chill has not yet faded, resist the pressure with the existing unit and huddle with colleagues to keep warm, so as not to be frozen.
3.Maintain a zero-in mentality.
In the mindset of finding a job, you have to leave behind all your achievements, status, and aura that you have come to where you are today.
Everyone always has "35-year-old anxiety" because everyone always thinks that they should earn more and more.
However, the relationship between age and achievement is not linear.
If you run fast in front and slow in the back, you will be overtaken by those behind you, and this is bound to happen.
What kind of people will live well in the next 3 years?
People who love change, take the initiative to embrace uncertainty, and have the courage to step out of their comfort zone.
May you still be full of courage and meet the next change without hesitation.
Social downgrade. British writer Priestley said:
Social gatherings are an activity that you will regret if you don't go or not, and no one will notice your absence.
An epidemic has made many people gradually discover the non-necessity of social interaction in self-isolation.
In fact, excessive socialization not only fails to relieve emotional loneliness and bring about so-called connections, but is a kind of self-consumption.
In the future, please degrade your own socialization.
1.Don't go to meaningless meals.
When we participated in a lively dinner, we thought that we would get the connections done while eating, drinking, and having fun.
But I don't understand that the friendship at the wine table cannot extend beyond the wine table.
Keen on this kind of party, not to mention wasting energy, there will be an illusion of "friends all over the world".
Wait until a wave of reality hits, and you will understand that the friendship of acting on the scene is not vulnerable at all.
2.Get out of the fake vanity fair.
When Su Mang was the editor-in-chief of Bazaar magazine, he stood in the C position every time he took a photo with a group of celebrities.
But when her status in the fashion industry is not guaranteed, others will cut her off when they send a group photo.
People who have experienced ups and downs can better understand what it means to be cool.
The world of adults has always been realistic, they have no value, and all social interaction is a floating cloud.
Instead of bothering about building relationships in Vanity Fair, it is better to cultivate your skills.
3.Stay away from low-level circles.
Zhou Guoping once said:
People who get together for the sake of having fun are either in debt or riddled with illnesses and often end up not having fun
On the contrary, those who get together to endure hardships are tempered physically and mentally, and finally live happily and fully. ”
The lower circles will continue to consume you and corrode you until you sink into them;
Integrating into a better group is the best path to growth.
The poet Rilke said: There is no victory to speak of, and holding on means everything.
The sea of life is never calm, you have to meet the wind and waves with a steady attitude and survive the wind and waves.
In the next 3 years, please hold your wallet tightly and reduce your desires.
Please believe that every time you bow your head to life, it is for a better future to hold your head high.
Every accumulation you have at the moment will eventually be rewarded with the favor of fate.
Give it a thumbs up and encourage your friends.
