A little thought lately

Today, share a few fragmented reflections.

1. Financial freedom.

It is said that some people have examined that the quality of life of the richest man in the past, Rothschild, may not be as good as ordinary people today. It is also very easy to understand that the princes and princes in history could not eat so much food today, and they could not enjoy air conditioning.

Whether you are rich or not is the result of a comparison. And once you compare yourself to others, you don't have financial freedom, because there's always someone who has more money than you.

People who pursue too much money are easy to overdraft time and energy, which is equivalent to adding leverage to full positions in investment, and exhaustion and illness are blowing up and liquidating.

The contented are rich.

2. Scam.

Balzac said: Next to a fool there will be a liar.

Seeing some tricks, it feels incredible. Later, I thought that if you listen to what someone says and does and think that he is an idiot, the truth is often that the object of his deception is not you. Poor deception is to screen people who are easy to deceive.

There is no way to win, and getting rich overnight is just a myth. If you haven't even won "another bottle", why do you always think that the god of luck will smash the chance of getting rich on your head?

Of course, people cannot be omniscient and omnipotent, and there are always cognitive blind spots, so it may be inevitable to be deceived. For example, people in the stock market are often deceived into taking chips at a low level and being deceived into taking over at a high level. But as long as there is risk control, it will not be deceived into ruining the family.

Believe in common sense and do a good job of risk control, you can avoid most of the traps.

3. Education.

The biggest problem in middle school philosophical education is dogmatism, which purely instills some positions and conclusions, and loses the characteristics of philosophical reflection, criticism, tolerance, and truth-seeking.

Plato once said a "cave parable": there is a cave in which someone is born to live in it. The neck cannot be twisted freely, only in one direction. There was fire burning behind them, casting their shadows on the wall in front of them. Naturally, they see illusory images as real things. But they are unconscious of the fire that caused these shadows and of themselves.

There are two types of education, the difference is whether to hold or twist your neck.

Of course, basic education cannot be too demanding, its main task is to shape consensus, and there is consensus to have cohesion. If you want to see the truth of the world, you mainly have to learn it yourself.

4. Close relatives.

Let's share a little bit of knowledge.

Close relatives cannot marry, otherwise the offspring are prone to genetic diseases. Our law explicitly prohibits the marriage of close relatives within three generations, and in ancient times, there was even a tradition that marriages could not be married with the same surname.

I thought this was the consensus of the world, but I didn't expect that many countries allowed close relatives to marry.

Why is this the case in our country?

In fact, the ancients did not know that the marriage of close relatives can easily lead to genetic diseases. The reason why it is forbidden for close relatives to marry is because of the patriarchal system, and generational division is very important. For example, A and B are married, but A shouts C is a sister and B shouts C is a niece, so that the generations are chaotic and the foundation of the patriarchal system is unstable.

However, in ancient times, it was common for the powerful to form alliances for the sake of interests, and it was common for them to intermarry for a long time, and eventually they all slowly became close relatives married.

The truth behind many appearances is often different from people's feelings.

Let's talk about it today, good night~
