The post-70s generation is something special.
When I was a child, I spent most of my time in the countryside, and when I grew up, I went far away, walked into cities and factories, and wanted to fly out of the mountain nest to become a phoenix.
After years of hard work, some people are rich and oily, and some people are still worried about their livelihood.
The city can't keep the soul, the countryside can't keep the body, and it's really unclear where to go.
The reality is very cruel, and we have to understand that many and a small number of people are at the bottom of society and play the role of "beating workers", and a small number of people can be mixed into the upper echelons.
We are all afraid of poverty, because when we were young, our family lacked food and clothing, often wore patched clothes, and had to do farm work, and experienced poverty for a long time.
However, after the 70s who are fifty years old in a flash, they still haven't gotten rid of a "poor" word, how can it be good? Don't be too careless, and then we are old people, and we always have some foresight - to avoid the bleakness of the evening.
Hold the following four "hole cards", and when the last resort is, take them out and add warmth to your old age.
02
The first hole card: pension money and house.
I like a saying: "The routine in the city is too deep, I want to go back to the countryside." ”
No matter how many years we have been in the city, we are still a "farmer" in our bones, and if you don't believe you can smell it, the smell of earth is emitted from the skin.
If you want to return the fallen leaves to the roots, you must repair the old houses in the countryside, or build a small Western-style building.
Don't look at the fact that there are many houses in the countryside, all locked up, but their owners have left their hearts in the houses. When I am old, I really can't mix anymore, and I can still go home and cultivate a few acres of thin land.
People who don't have a house always have no sense of belonging. We've been adrift for more than twenty years, if not thirty years, since we were teenagers.
Find a way, whether in the city or in the countryside, to turn yourself into a family with a house.
After that, leave some money for the elderly. If conditions permit, you must pay social security. After retiring at the age of sixty, even if there is only a few hundred yuan of pension a month, life has a "hope".
You who have no hard skills, from now on, try to choose a factory that will pay social security, maybe the salary is not very high, but the second half of your life, there will be a fall.

Second hole card: always keep improving yourself.
Buffett, the rich man, told his children: "Once you stop learning, the whole world will roar past you." ”
After the 70s, we are all forty or fifty years old, is it too late to start over?
Tell you that as long as you are willing to fight, it will be too late.
My cousin Ah Hu, who is forty-seven years old and has some disabilities on his left foot, has never been married.
In previous years, he was a key poor person.
The staff asked him, "Do you grow ginger?" Do you know how to raise pigs? Do you want to work in a factory? ”
He was so confused that he was so poor that he was only "poor", and he forgot how to write his name.
Last year, he walked into a vocational school, learned welding, and was recommended to work in a street lamp factory to assemble small parts. In the factory, he fell in love with a divorced woman. Marriage and family career, all at once.
At the New Year, he said an intriguing sentence: "The boss praised me, saying that my feet were not good, but my hands were very flexible." ”
Most of the post-70s workers are people with low academic qualifications and no skills. Many people, only the first Chinese, except to go to the factory, it seems that there is no way.
If you want to change yourself, you have to read more books. People with knowledge, the older the more valuable, there is also the possibility of late success.

The third hole card: to retain the spirit of hard-working and hard-working.
I like a famous saying: "No matter how far you go, you can't forget the way you came." ”
Once upon a time, we were really able to endure hardships.
When he was six or seven years old, he worked with his parents in farm work, planting seedlings, cutting rice, picking grain, digging soil, planting vegetables, and doing everything.
People are not as high as the flat burden, they can pick up the burden of eighty or ninety pounds. The shoulders ached, but our footsteps didn't stop.
Some people, when they were in junior high school, worked as summer vacation workers — went to the mountains as lumberjacks and picked bricks at construction sites.
The generation of parents is even more industrious. Get up early and be busy in the field, hoping for a good harvest, and you can make some money by selling grain, vegetables, and pigs.
Before the Dragon Boat Festival, the family went to the mountains to pick rice dumpling leaves; in the summer, to the mountains to fold pepper; in the autumn, to pick wild fruits, to the city to sell... But we have tried any way to make money.
Times have changed, the road to making money has widened, and even if you are a hit worker, you can jump ship at will. You must not forget the way you came, the spirit of suffering, is the most precious treasure.
As long as you are willing to do it, you will not lose your job. Sweeping the streets, being a security guard, doing garden maintenance, seemingly humble work, can also earn hundreds of dollars a day.

Fourth hole card: create a harmonious little family.
People are old, live in nursing homes, and don't bother their children. Does this kind of thinking often come up?
In fact, no matter where you live, you have to rely on your family. Whether your family is good or not determines the quality of your pension.
There are some elderly people who, because they have a loser in the family, live anywhere and are not at peace. He said that he didn't care about his children's affairs, but his heart really couldn't let go.
Home and everything. This is an eternal truth.
Therefore, workers, no matter how hard and busy you are, you must also manage your family well and educate your children well.
If your children have a good family style, your future will be managed by someone.
Also, be kind to your wife. It is not easy to walk with you in the ups and downs. If you treat him a little better, the family will have more laughter. When they are old, husband and wife are the best relatives and can take care of each other.
The tradition of "marrying a chicken with a chicken and marrying a dog with a dog" is left over from the older generation, and in our generation, we cannot lose it.

After the 70s, half of them are rooted in the countryside and half in the city.
Don't complain about life, don't complain about the times, change yourself.
The old patriarch said, "No one has far-sighted worries, but will have near-term worries." ”
We live at the bottom, but we must also avoid the bleakness of the evening and learn to look forward.
Poor, not terrible, the key is not to be poor, do not sit on the ground, do not move.
We can't become a big tree, we can't become a safflower, so we can be tenacious grass, rooted in the barren land, and yearn for the sun.
No matter how much income, learn to cut the door, the deposit will be there; no matter how difficult life is, work hard a little, the fate is not ordinary.
After the 70s, along the way, it is not easy and not simple, and the future road still needs to refuel and give ourselves praise.
