Friday night, chatting with a friend.
--“What kind of life do you really want Sherry?”
--“I want be a single rich woman!”
--“Wow! That won’t be easy.”
--“It’s not too difficult! See, today I’m single, so I’m already half done getting there, I just need to work hard, make money, and get rich!”
--“Why do you wanna be rich?”
--“Well, money is not the most important thing, but rich is always better!”
Maybe you will say: it’s not cute for a girl to talk about money; or, you guys in business care too much about money! Then I prefer to be “real” than “cute”.
“Money is no object”—people who say that usually have too much money, or they have money problems and pretend that they don’t care.
Humans believe money is the root of all evil. So we are shy to talk about money, to admit that we need money. In fact, money is just a medium of exchange in transactions, it’s a tool after all, it’s all up to the manipulator.
There is nothing wrong that you like to make money, as long as you make money in the right way, and don’t become a slave of money.
Sure, money is not the most important thing in life, but it is important! And it’s no exception for girls! We need to have a job, have our own income, and to be capable to live by ourselves.
I know that a lot of movies and books are telling you: marry a rich guy! But not many people tell you that asking money from others, you sell your dignity and freedom at the same time.
How long can you be young and pretty? How far can you count on that man? Only you can ensure your life.
Don’t be a Cinderella girl dreaming of Prince Charming who’s coming to save your life, even if you meet a prince, who can guarantee you that “princess and prince will live happily ever after!?” all the fairy tales stop at the most beautiful moment, but life continues, Diana married Prince Charles, she was never really happy after. Why don’t you build up your own kingdom and make yourself a queen? So if someday, some prince comes knocking at the door of your castle, you still have the choice to let him in or not; even he gets in, he is just a man coming to share the love, he is not your life saver, you are equal.
It’s true that building up your castle is much more work than just sitting and waiting, but this project not only brings you a better material life, you are building up your self-confidence and self-respect at the same time. And girls who wait for the prince, they may catch a frog by mistake when they run out of patience, but the frog which becomes prince by a kiss is only true in fairy tales, in real life even you kiss to stifling, that frog is still a frog. Don’t be silly!
You don’t necessarily have to be millionaire, but you should have enough to support the life you want.
Literary giant LuXun said: you can’t buy freedom with money, but you may sell freedom for money.
The author of a book《Rich is better》Judy Resnick said: I've been rich and I’ve been poor--and believe me, rich is better.
Even Holy Bible says: Don’t be too poor, otherwise you lose god’s face!
And I am telling you: never give up your kingdom for no matter a real prince or a frog! I did give up everything in China to come here, he said: take this chance to study, I will take care of you. More then half year I didn’t work, all the promises he made was still somewhere around, but he shouted at me: you think you didn’t cost me, the flower on your head cost me 5$! I looked at this man in everything famous brand I bought for him in China, the tie was even from Italy, never mind how much I spent. I wanted to laugh but I couldn’t, a man with 7 cars he wouldn’t care about 5$, he just happened to know how to hit me vital in one shot—even he don’t know Chinese KungFu. I like shopping but I’m too proud to spend his money, the shopping centre was not even 500M away, I never went there once, the only time I took a flower in supermarket, more than a slap on my face that moment.
The economic base determines the superstructure. There is no reason to being poor and pitiful. Destiny is in our hands, we have to handle it on our own.
Some people think it’s difficult for woman to make money. You know why some women are poor? The answer is easy, because they spend too much time and energy working on love and men! If we focus more on ourselves, we can be even more successful than men.
Life would be tough if we make money because we have to, but intelligent ladies can find balance in their job, enjoy their work, making money happily!
Use your own money, buy the most beautiful flower, lighting up yourself! Frog? Stay out of our way!!
Rich is better--女人要有钱 (Chinese Version)
自己赚钱买花戴
与人闲扯。
——你到底想要什么样的生活呢?
——我要做个有钱的单身女人!
——这倒不容易达到了。
——也不难啊,我现在单身,这不就已经成了一半了嘛,接下来呢,就是努力赚钱啦。
——干嘛要有钱呢?
——钱不是最重要的,但是有钱总是比较好些。
我明白别人听到这些是怎么想的:一个女孩子家家的,说钱太不可爱了,俗!或者是:你们学商的都爱钱 !
如果要比清高,我甘拜下风。我宁愿做个真实的自己,而非捏着鼻子说”钱乃阿堵物”的可爱淑女。现实社会中女人常常跟弱势群体直接挂钩,独立自主一点的被称做”女强人”,跟男人所定义的”可爱” 就基本不搭界了。这不过是大男子们为方便掌控女人布的局罢了。
喜欢赚钱没什么不对啊,跟道德跟品性无关,只要”君子爱财,取之有道.”
凭什么女人就该做一个等待白马王子救赎的灰姑娘,世界上哪来那么多的王子到处拯救做白日梦的灰姑娘啊,再说了灰姑娘嫁给了王子后就从此”幸福快乐的生活在一起了吗”?童话都在最美的时候嘎然而止,现实中,戴安娜嫁入皇室却一直郁郁寡欢。
渺茫的等待远不如一砖一瓦的建起自己的王国来得实际!那么哪怕有一天王子来到你的城堡前,你还可以考虑要不要让他进来;进来的也只是一个爱你的男人,而不是一个救世主,你是自己王国里尊贵美丽的女王,你们是平等的——不管他骑的是什么马。
自己努力垒砌城堡看起来是比闲闲地等待要辛苦,但是这项工程带来的不仅是物质生活的提升,跟着城墙一起垒起的更是自信和尊严。而等得头昏眼花的女孩们,往往心急之下扑着青蛙也错当王子。但那只吻一下会变成王子的青蛙只住在童话里,现实中装成王子的青蛙,你吻他到窒息他也变不了王子。别听他信誓旦旦夸口照顾你一辈子, 谁稀罕被养一辈子来着?! 经济基础决定上层建筑,依赖于他人,你付出的是尊严和自由。
年轻美貌可以维持多久?嫁的有钱人又可以依赖多久? 只有自身的努力才能保障自己的人生。现实社会明示暗示女人:要嫁个有钱人。 但很少人能诚实地告诉女人:仰人鼻息,跟男人伸手,有多么折煞尊严。
花自己的钱是舒坦快乐的。现代女子都明白,钱虽然不能买来一切,但常可以维护尊严和自由。
鲁迅说:自由固不是钱所能买到的,但能够为钱所卖掉。
《女人要有钱》的作者茱蒂.瑞斯尼克说:女人要青春,要美丽,要遇见好男人,更要有钱才会幸福。
连《圣经》都说:不要太贫穷,否则会丢了神的脸。
我说:永远别放弃自己的城堡,不论是为了王子或是青蛙。曾经为了所谓的爱情,我放弃一切来到这里,他说,利用这个机会好好去学习,我会照顾你的。半年多的时间里我没有工作,结果誓言还在耳边,他却对我叫嚷,你以为你没花我钱么,你头上的花花了我五块钱呢!眼前这个男人,全身上下的都是我当初送的中国名牌,领带还是意大利的,从没在意过花了多少。想笑却笑不出来,一个有着7辆车的男人不会在意这区区5块钱,他不过是懂得怎样漂亮地一刀刺中我的死穴。我爱逛街却骄傲到不肯花他的钱,住在离购物区500米不到,从没去逛过,唯一一次超市里要的一朵花,这一刻却比一个巴掌更响亮。
女人要有钱,要把握自己的人生,更要维护生命的尊严。 我们不必太富有,但是要能够自给自足。
很多人叫嚣女人赚钱太不容易了,你知道为什么女人会没有钱?答案很简单,因为女人花了太多的时间在经营爱情经营男人身上了!如果我们把精力多一点点放在自己身上,女人远可以比男人更成功。
人生最辛苦的一件事,就是为了赚钱而赚钱, 聪明的女人可以在工作中找到乐趣,把赚钱建立在爱好的基础上,快乐地赚钱!
花自己的钱,买朵最美的花戴,点亮你的人生。青蛙么,还是让他一边凉快去好了。
