The biggest difference is: time.
Poor people have no time for anything, while rich people have time for everything.
So the rich are also called the leisure class.
Give me an example! When you travel from Shenzhen to Beijing, poor people may consider taking a train or a high-speed train, but rich people just take a plane. Calculated this way, the poor may save hundreds of dollars, but the rich gain a few days of time. What are you doing with all this time? He can play, read, exercise, and do business. That's the advantage money brings.
Give another example. Even if a rich man runs a company and can work 18 hours a day when he is busy, the rich still have more time than the poor. Because rich people can leave their jobs at any time, and the company doesn’t really need you to work so hard, because you can hire more energetic and hard-working young people to help you, but the poor have no choice, they can’t leave their jobs - either Asking for time off, or missing work, in which case his wages would be deducted—he only had nights and holidays to himself. The rich earn 1,000 yuan an hour, while the poor earn dozens of yuan an hour. Even if the rich company goes bankrupt, as long as they are not heavily in debt, they will still live more comfortably than the poor.
Let’s take another example. In society or in news reports, we often see people saying that when they were young, they were sorry for their families and their children. Many people blame these people for being workaholics and not caring about their families. But in fact, as a poor person, if you want to work hard to get rid of your own class, you need to spend more time. This time was originally used for your lover and your children, but you gave it to your job. This is poor people. As for the rich, because they have free working hours and high incomes, they have a lot of time to accompany their children's growth. This is why those who are successful and famous, when they have money and time, always hope to make up for their past mistakes. Of course, we do not rule out that some people just like to work, but we have to admit that poverty prevents most people from spending time with their loved ones and children. The lack of care between family members and children will also cause many social problems. , and poverty will also prevent the poor from receiving better education-poverty is an important source of evil. Our country’s Spring Festival travels over the past few decades have reflected the concept of poverty. How many people have left their homes! If everyone can earn enough money in their hometown, why don't they spend time with their families?
Everyone who has played games will understand this. In the virtual world of the game, there are two kinds of people, one is the poor and the other is the rich. The poor need to spend time and do tasks to accumulate combat power, buy equipment, and obtain more powerful characters, but the rich only need to spend money. A rich person can become the best today and go to the beach to swim with beautiful women, but you may need to spend several years accumulating equipment and increasing your combat power. In the game, the difference between money and time is infinitely widened - unless you cheat, it is difficult for you to compete with the rich through time, because even if you win the rich through time, the game is over at this time, and the best The trial period has also passed, and the wealthy people have long given up playing other games.
By paving the way with money, anything the rich can do can be done as quickly as possible, which saves time and gives the rich more time to do other things. The poor have no choice. They may need more time to complete one thing. A person only has so much energy and time. When he wastes time on work, survival, buying a house, and getting married, , where does he have the time and energy to experience a more exciting world? How can you take the time to improve yourself and make better investments in future competition?
Some people may say that you are too fetishistic. But the reality we have to face is that Du Fu and Tao Yuanming also have to eat. Money is currency, the equivalent exchange of items. In a certain period of time, the more money you have, it means the more resources you have at your disposal. The more resources you have at your disposal, you will get twice the result with half the effort in everything you do. For example: The landlord wants to harvest wheat. Because the weather is bad and it may rain in two days, but the landlord has a lot of land, what should I do? He originally hired 5 workers and it took 5 days to finish the job, but now he hired 25 workers and it took him 1 day to finish the job. So the landowner gained time and harvested the wheat before the weather worsened. But poor people? It also takes two days for a person to harvest wheat, so it rained the next day and his wheat spoiled.
I have heard such a story before (it should be a true story because it was told at a sharing meeting). It is said that a well-known real estate developer is building a building in a very short time. Let’s give an example (not necessarily realistic): if the normal time to build a building is 1 year, and they can complete it in 6 months, how can they complete it? Made with money. It turns out that it takes one year to build a building with one construction team, but what about two or three buildings? We can also work until midnight! As long as enough money is given, it can still be done - of course, now that the law has been improved, this may not be allowed.
What is the most precious? I believe many people think it is time, because as long as time is long enough, there is a chance to do anything. So if you look at the ancient emperors, even if they ruled the world, they would still want to live forever - but unfortunately immortality is just a fantasy.
How to expand the width of time in limited time? For ordinary people, if they have more money, it will be fine.
