We live in Fufu County, Yunnan Province, a poor township classified as an alpine mountainous area, at an altitude of 1,700-2,100 metersDisposable income per capitaLess than ten thousand. But in 2023, because of the constructionHighwayswithPhotovoltaic power generationproject, but some locals suddenly became rich, and the highest even got 1.86 million. This begs the question, why do poor people often struggle to hold on to windfalls?
Expanding: In this barren land, more than 100 acres of mountainous land is not uncommon for a family, and it can only be planted for one seasonCorn, the income depends on the rainfall of the year. However, withPhotovoltaic power generationAs a result of the project, the value of land has risen, and two-thirds of the families in the nearby villages have received wealth ranging from 200,000 to 1.86 million yuan. And the poor family in the village, Ah Yan's family, also caught the last train in this wave of sudden wealth and becameThe richest man。Although the villagers did not show jealousy on the surface, the envy in their hearts could not be concealed. Ah Yan was not carried away by wealth, but had a clear plan, depositing 300,000 yuan with his parents and buying an excavator with more than 700,000 yuan, which seems to be a good oneInvestments, but it laid the groundwork for his future loser.
After taking over the excavator, Ah Yan began to repair the house, spending 250,000 yuan, and there was no extravagance and waste, showing his real character. He also bought a sedan worth 170,000 yuan, which seemed extravagant but not excessive. When the excavator arrives at the village, Ah Yan slaughters the sheep, feasts the villagers, and sets off fireworks, hoping to show his wealth and generosity in this way. He built a pond next to the village for fish farming and set up a tent recreation space, spending more than 100,000 yuan and inviting only close young people to enter. In addition, he alsoInvestmentsMore than 300,000 yuan to buy drones, fly around the village every day, and share these wonderful moments, so that their lives are full of fun and excitement.
Expanding: With the passage of time, Ah Yan's road to riches has not been smooth. Because he didn't understand the operation of the excavator, he had to hire someone to do it for him, but it led to an unfortunate accident, a child was accidentally injured, and the compensation was very expensive. He then prepared some work, such as digging water cellars and clearing wasteland, but the work in the countryside was limited and could not be sustained for long. At this time, Ah Yan began to embark on a dangerous path - buying Shi Shi Cai. He soaked in every dayLotteriesIn the store, at the expense of high bets, fell into the whirlpool of gambling. Although the odds of winning the lottery were slim, he could no longer extricate himself and his debts began to accumulate.
Ah Yan began to borrow money to pay off his debts, and at first, the people around him lent him one after another because of his previous savings. However, as time passed, everyone found that his situation was not optimistic, and he began to gradually refuse. He sold the excavator, but the price was less than half, and he could only barely make up for his previous gambling money. He started borrowing money from his parents, but was frustrated by their parents' refusal, because the parents wanted the money to be used for their children's education. Fortunately, the original wealth was kept by his parents, otherwise he would have been squandered. Today, Ah Yan is becoming increasingly impoverished and has to reduce his purchasesLotteriesThe amount of money, problems in life also began to appear, and he quarreled frequently with his wife, even to the point of divorce. The tent houses next to the pond have become almost deserted, and few people visit them anymore.
Expanding: Eventually, Ah Yan's road to riches came to an end, and he had to face the reality of being in debt, and he could only rely on borrowing from relatives and friends around him to make ends meet. However, his liabilities did not decrease over time, but intensified. He had to cash out the assets in his hands one by one, but in the end the return was a dime. He gambled uncontrollably and blindlyInvestmentsLet him return to the point of origin before he lost his wealth overnight, or even worse. Such a tragic ending makes one wonder why it is so difficult for the poor to keep their windfalls.
It is difficult for the poor to keep on with the windfall after they have received it, and the reason for this is not only lack of ability, but also greed and blindnessInvestments, profligacy and other problems. Poor people lack financial planning and foresight and often do it on the spur of the momentInvestments, which ultimately leads to the loss of wealth. And when wealth is exposed, it introduces many traps that make it difficult for them to keep. Just like Ah Yan, wealth comes and goes quickly, and he ends up in a quagmire of gambling and debt. Only with cautionManage your moneyReasonable planning can keep the windfall and achieve a stable growth of wealth.
When faced with wealth, we should all keep a clear head, do what we can, and avoid blindly following trends and impulsive behavior. Wealth is a kind of well-being, but also a kind of responsibility, only by correctly viewing and using wealth, can we truly realize our own value and happiness. Therefore, while pursuing wealth, we should pay more attention to inner cultivation and moral cultivation, so as not to let wealth become a burden and burden in our lives. The so-called "afoolandhismoneyaresoonparted", only true wisdom and prudence can keep every cent of wealth in their hands and walk out of the road of steady and sustainable prosperity.
