Let's talk about a picture! ( Episode 11 )

As the saying goes, hard work leads to success. However, some people manage to reach their goals and live the life they want just by having enough money.

In this picture, you can see two people making their way up the big steps. One person struggles up a large staircase with a purple backpack, and the other person climbs easily on smaller steps made of money with a blue backpack. With small steps made of money, climbing to the next level is no struggle at all for this person. You can even notice that every single banknote is marked with a value of ten thousand. If you count them all, the money-built staircase is worth nearly 10.8 million dollars ~ no wonder success comes easily.

In my opinion, the person with the purple backpack could symbolize the effort and determination it takes to achieve success, while the person with the blue backpack might represent how wealth can sometimes make things easier for some people. It’s an interesting commentary on the different paths to success. But it also reveals the realistic side of the world. Isn't success not only about hard work, but also about having enough money to make it happen? However, the person carrying the purple backpack also reflects that no matter how hard or slow the climb may be, he will eventually reach the highest peak, the top of the staircase. And he managed to climb to the top without spending a single penny. So I suppose he'll end up with more savings than the one carrying the blue backpack (? Hahaha

This picture makes me think about several problems in modern society, including wealth disparity and unequal access to education. The children from wealthy families at the top are using stacks of cash as stairs, and can attend prestigious schools, have tutors, and participate in extracurricular activities. And the other children from low-income families often lack access to education, healthcare, and social networks, making it hard for them to move up in life. No matter how hard they work. This symbolizes the unequal distribution of resources. Therefore, in order to address this issue, some governments provide a lot of financial aid and subsidies to disadvantaged families to help their children achieve their goals.

To everyone watching, I just want to say: don't give up on yourself, even if you feel like you don't have enough resources and connections. Keep believing, keep pushing forward, and one day, your efforts will pay off.

Alright, that's all for today's content. Thanks for reading.

Sometimes pretending to be fine doesn't mean it's really fine. I hope that people living in this world will remain kind, observant, and understanding.

債券投資,不只是高資產族群的遊戲 在傳統的投資觀念中,海外債券(Overseas Bonds)常被貼上「高資產族群專屬」的標籤。過去動輒 1 萬甚至 10 萬美元的最低申購門檻,讓許多想尋求穩定配息的小資族望而卻步。 然而,在股市波動劇烈的環境下,尋求穩定的美元現金流與被動收入成為許多投資人

上周都在罵人的感覺? 對,因為道德性的東西,講下去沒完沒了,太多社會常識要自己去體驗,不是上網找資料,故罵一罵比較快。
