A Jew who went to the United States to pan for gold borrowed 1,000 tents, and soon he made a fortune, and then he bought 5,000 tents, but unexpectedly there were a large number of competitors, and everyone's tents could not be sold. After some maneuvering, he sold out his tent and made a net profit of $800,000.
The Jewish name was Levi. Strauss, in the mid-19th century, went with his companions to the United States to pan for gold. When he saw that many gold diggers needed tents, he gave up gold panning and went into the tent business. However, after learning that he made a fortune by selling tents, many people joined the army of reselling tents, and the situation of "more monks and less porridge" made their tents backlogged.
Just when he was at a loss, he pulled out the Talmud he had carried with him and read it repeatedly, hoping to find the answer from it. Finally, he found a business rule: to make a big profit by doing what he likes.
Subsequently, under pressure, he bought tents in the hands of other merchants in the gold rush area at the purchase price. All of a sudden, he had a large backlog of tents in his hands. Everyone around him scolded him for being stupid, others were eager to shoot, and he was so good that he didn't sell and reaped the rewards.
It turned out that through observation, he found that the "gold diggers" at that time had to deal with mud and water all day long at work, and their pants broke quickly, and they needed those durable pants, while the need for tents was not so urgent.
So, under the guidance of the "empty glove white wolf" business thinking, he made the first pair of jeans with tent cloth. To enhance the fastness of the pockets, he added copper buttons next to the pockets of his pants. In this way, he hired dozens of gold diggers to sew pants for himself, and the tent in his hand was quickly made into pants and sold. When other traders follow suit, Levi. Strauss has made a lot of money.
Since then, he has used the rules of business learned in the "Encyclopedia of Wisdom" and "Talmud" to keep his business sales at the top of the list, selling about 1 million pieces of this way every year, with a turnover of up to 5 million US dollars, becoming a rich man on the rich side.
This case is recorded in the "Talmud", which is regarded by the Jews as the "way of survival", and every Jew will read this book under the guidance of their parents from an early age, and they have to think about the wisdom of the book every day, sort out the core content, and let themselves understand the book as soon as possible.
In addition to teaching us how to deal with emergencies, the Talmud will also teach us how to increase our cognition, how to improve our thinking ability, how to accumulate wealth, how to do business, how to educate our children, and so on.
It is well known that the world's fewer than 17 million Jews control 36 percent of the world's wealth, with 60 of the world's top 400 rich people.
The Talmud is a book worth reading, and from thousands of cases in the book, we can find that the reason why so many Jews have become billionaires is inseparable from these three rules of getting rich:
1. More important than luck is the opportunity to tap into life
The Talmud says: In the process of getting rich, we must have a clear understanding of opportunity and luck. We don't reject luck, but it's more important to use your wisdom to tap into opportunities in your life, and only then can you succeed.
Just like Levi in the text. Strauss, if he sells tents to get rich is more lucky, then he later under great pressure to buy the tents of his peers to make "jeans" is the secret of getting rich by observing the current situation of gold diggers.
So a lot of times we see others succeeding thinking that he is lucky, but in fact he is good at observing life and can tap opportunities from life.
2. Solve the needs of others, in order to invest in their needs and make big profits
The Talmud says: When you interact with others, you must learn to do what you like, and try to arouse the urgent desires of the other party. If you can do that, you can keep getting rich.
Like Levi. Strauss, seeing that the "gold panning" people because their pants are broken quickly, they thought that they must need wearable pants to solve their current predicament, and it is precisely because of their needs that they have made a lot of money.
3. Do not panic in case of trouble, and make good use of the wisdom of others to solve your own difficulties
The Talmud says: Don't panic when things happen, but also be good at dealing with the wisdom and experience of others.
Just like Levi. Strauss, when the backlog of 5,000 tents is up, if he is in a hurry, then he must not think of a countermeasure, either watching this batch of tents have been backlogged, or selling to others at a loss.
Fortunately, he not only did not panic, but also found a solution from the wisdom of the ancients in "Talmud", not only made a fortune but also developed the "jeans" that have swept away to this day.
This is the wisdom of the Jews.
Morgan, a financial giant, once said: I don't need anything to accompany me, as long as I have a copy of the Talmud with me.
If you are dissatisfied with the status quo and urgently need to open your mind; if you lack the way and brain to make money, you may wish to read the Talmud and the Treasure Book of Jewish Wisdom, and perhaps you can find ideas and ways out of these simple cases.
The Talmud and the Jewish Book of Wisdom can serve as our pillow books to help us break down the limitations of our thinking and cultivate quality thinking. It can also be used as parent-child reading to cultivate children's business sense of smell and financial thinking from an early age! #虎年有娱 #
