Chapter 32 money can't go wrong

I was born in the poorest part of the northwest countryside, and my family is the poorest family in the village.When I was young, I wanted to be a doctor, because being a doctor can relieve people's suffering.At that time, the doctor was very respected in the village. He carried a medicine box on his back every day and went from house to house. Everyone killed the last old hen for him to eat.I also thought that if I couldn't be a doctor, I would be an electrician.Electric lights had just been installed in our village at that time. How amazing this thing is, the lights suddenly turned on as soon as the wire was pulled.I think the most amazing people in the world besides doctors are electricians.With this kind of thinking, I am already considered a very ideal person among my friends.After entering middle school, my ideals changed again.At that time, I was often tortured by hunger. Seeing the steamed buns and hair cakes in the cafeteria, my dream became to be a chef when I grow up, because the chef can eat enough.Later, I gradually realized that having money was very important to me. With money, I could treat my mother and provide food and clothing for the whole family.At that time, I dreamed of money in my dreams, and the money I dreamed was not RMB, but meal tickets from our cafeteria.After waking up, I feel hungrier, and I especially want to be rich, even if I have a little money.

From the ideal of being a doctor and electrician to the ideal of being a rich man, there is a big change in the middle.To be a doctor or an electrician, you must first learn the skills and apply the skills to serve others. This is the beginning of a simple career plan, and there are some life designs in it. I think it is very good.In fact, the second ideal cannot be called an ideal at all, because it is forced by poverty, and it is a worship of the dominance of money. Holding the memory of poverty when they were young and having a strong desire for money is the situation of most people in the early reform period.At that time, the idea that "money can solve all problems" magnified money to an extremely lofty status.There are Gods of Wealth everywhere. When French ministers greet the Chinese in France, they will imitate the local Chinese and say "Gong Xi Fa Cai".Foreigners think that Chinese people have faith and believe in the God of Wealth.The God of Wealth replaced the Jade Emperor, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and Sakyamuni. In everything, we only follow the God of Wealth.Money cast a spell on us and took hold of our souls in those years of existential desire.Now that many people are rich, they feel that this kind of thinking is problematic. They think that our god should not only be the god of wealth, but also the god of wisdom, love, and art.Our spirit should be developed in an all-round way, first of all, we must be liberated from the single belief in the God of Wealth.

Money has cast a curse on almost our entire generation, and we rush like whiplash, looking for money everywhere.When I found a penny, I quickly put it under the bed and hid it, feeling like I took possession of the money.More than ten years ago, I got a banknote with someone's name written on it, and it was stamped with a handprint.It is estimated that what this person thought was to sign this piece of money as a deposit, and this piece of money would be his forever.In the end, the money ended up in my hands. Eliminating the curse of money is actually to eliminate the absurd thoughts we set for ourselves and weaken the worship of the dominance of money.The eagerness for quick success and short-sighted thoughts caused by poverty at that time seem really absurd now.Take the motive of "possessing money", which actually conflicts with the wisdom contained in the banknote itself.

Objectively speaking, the banknotes invented by the wisdom of the masses and the wisdom of history have their reasons.Banknotes are a measure of commodity value, and banknotes can only exert their functional wisdom when they are in circulation.It is like flowing water, and no one can dig a hole in the flowing water, occupy a certain part of the flowing water, and call himself the "rich man" here.The flow of funds, following the flow of information, represents logistics and is always in flow.In the huge liquidity in the world, some of it may be assigned to your name, which marks that you have done a certain part of the work, and is the reward for your work.Even if this part of the private property protected by the law is in your pocket, it is hard to say that it is quiet. You still have to spend it and put it in someone else's pocket.Because you live in a society of mutual support and mutual service, and money is the voucher for this service exchange.The so-called possession of money is indeed an illusion.People who always think about possessing money, misers, actually don't make much money.You may have excellent financial management skills, know how to put funds into suitable channels, become the power to organize and mobilize a certain business event, and thus be able to create greater value and wealth, then you are a conductor of capital flow, but You cannot possess it.Once you have it, you freeze it, like putting a fish in the refrigerator.A person who is the best at using money may leave behind an excellent enterprise throughout his life.After his death, the enterprise still survives and develops in the society by itself, bringing benefits to others and creating value for the society.

To love money, it is better to understand the power of money, and the power of money is that you cannot monopolize it.Circulation is its nature, and from this point of view it is a spiritual thing invented by human beings.In a healthy and reasonable society, the flow of money and the guarantee of transactions are perfect, and money will not go wrong. The path it takes will always be the path to satisfy the needs of most people and increase wealth.
