#钱, how important it really is #
Seeing this question, I remembered a video I brushed up on yesterday. This video is probably about a 36-year-old woman's analysis of the current family situation.
Although her mother-in-law has always been a child, she has no idea of having children at all. She and her husband are not of the Dink family, and there is no hidden body, so why doesn't she want children?
Her own reply was, too poor!
Of course, hearing this, there will also be people who question it. Not all children are born in rich families, the poor have the method of supporting the poor, the rich have the method of raising the rich, is it not rich enough to have children?
At first, I was also confused. But when I listened to her whole family situation, I understood.
The woman said her father was in a terminal stage of uremia, and that she had reached critical illness in many cases during the year, spending almost all of her time in hospitals and needing someone to accompany her. Her mother was in poor health, unable to take care of herself, and her daily care and meals were inseparable. Her husband is unemployed this year and now works as a food delivery worker, delivering about 20 orders a day. In addition to going to work, she now takes care of live streaming.
She wanted to give her father a kidney replacement, but not enough money; she wanted to pay off her mortgage, but not enough; she wanted children, but not enough money. She has no way of imagining herself holding up a big belly and not being able to take care of her parents when she is unable to take care of herself; she has no way to accept birth without raising, and there is no way to accompany her children to grow.
This is not only the plight of this lady, but also the plight of most middle-aged people. There are old people on the top and small ones on the bottom, and they are caught between parents and children everywhere.
Remember Professor Dai of Central China Normal University, whose classes are loved by students. He had previously refused the invitation of the TV station, but after that, he frequently broadcast live and gave speeches everywhere. This act was ridiculed by people with hearts and "lost the bones of the literati". As everyone knows, his wife is suffering from lung cancer, and a box of medicines costs tens of thousands of pieces. In the face of questioning, his reply was, "If I lose my wife, what do I want to do with the literati?" However, his wife did not break free from the shackles of fate in the end.
This is not only Professor Dai's helplessness, but also the helplessness of many peers.
There's no way I can say how important money is, after all some people are not interested in money. Is it wrong to love money like "love life"?
With those "numbers", the loved one may be with you for more years, more than a decade, or even decades; with those "numbers", you may no longer have to give up the right to pursue happiness for this purpose; with those "numbers", some dreams are one step closer.
Hope and remember, a gentleman loves money and has a way to get it!
May everyone's future life be full of flowers!
