In more than 30 days, it will be the annual college entrance examination season again, and the editor can only sigh: time is so fast, it has made us old. And every time the college entrance examination season, the topic of Tang Shangjun, a famous candidate in Guangxi, will attract the attention of all walks of life. In fact, for Tang Shangjun, I personally feel that his life illustrates the embarrassment of the poor: that is, most poor people face the embarrassment of returning to poverty after being rich in their lives. And the bottom line is that the poor have too poor financial thinking.
1, Tang Shangjun: The person who was poisoned by the scholarship
I often describe Tang Shangjun to my friends: a person who was poisoned by scholarships.
When Tang Shangjun took the college entrance examination for the first time, his college entrance examination score was only enough to study a junior college. Later, Tang Shangjun felt unsatisfactory about this result, so he chose to repeat it. Of course, I think this decision is understandable. Because not to mention that college entrance examination candidates who can't get into the undergraduate will choose to repeat, even if many college entrance examination scores are enough for two books, they will often consider repeating and strive for the next 211.
For Tang Shangjun, the initial experience can be understood as a painstaking experience: Tang Shangjun was admitted to Southwest University of Political Science and Law in the sixth college entrance examination, which is a heavy foundation. After all, it took six years from junior college to heavy capital, and it is difficult to describe whether it is worth it.
It is said that after Tang Shangjun got the scholarship because he was admitted to the capital, his thinking changed. Of course, the editor thinks that this statement is indeed possible: because when Tang Shangjun got the scholarship, it is estimated that he considered: Since the purpose of studying in college is to get a job, and employment is to make money, if you can continue to play the game of winning a scholarship in the college entrance examination, wouldn't it be equivalent to saving a lot of steps? Of course, Tang Shangjun actually didn't think about how long his road could last. So, Tang Shangjun began to repeat after that, if nothing else, Tang Shangjun will participate in the college entrance examination in 2024, but the result is unknown.
In fact, it doesn't matter much to Tang Shangjun whether he goes to college or not. The reason is very simple, even if Tang Shangjun goes to college this year, after graduating from his bachelor's degree, he will be almost 40 years old. Which employer would choose an undergraduate student who is almost 40 years old but has just graduated?
Therefore, judging from Tang Shangjun's life, Tang Shangjun is undoubtedly a person who was poisoned by scholarships and petty profits.
2. The financial thinking of the poor
In fact, the reason why many families have been poor for generations, even if there is an outbreak period, will return to poverty, in the final analysis, lies in two points: the first is that they do not have the ability to think independently, and the second is that the financial intelligence ability is too poor.
To put it bluntly, many post-80s middle-class people in contemporary society were the winners of the college entrance examination dividend, and after obtaining a bachelor's degree, they happened to encounter an era when college students were relatively scarce, so they had a good job, and settled down in the city, and had quite a lot of family resources. However, many of these middle classes are in a mid-life crisis – on the one hand, the source of funds has shrunk sharply, and on the other hand, there are signs of returning to poverty due to previous misplanning and layout. The fundamental reason behind this is that the gaokao is not enough to really improve one's thinking pattern.
Many people think that reading books can change a person's thinking, which is good, but many people mistakenly equate test-taking education with reading, which is actually a thinking trap. Of course, the poor who can't figure out the concept and the real situation naturally don't have the correct concept of wealth, so even if they start by relying on social dividends, there will inevitably be a time when they will be liquidated and return to poverty. After all, mean reversion is a scientific law, and even if the parents of maggots and waste wood chicken babies do not accept it, it will not change this.
