人生的意义到底是什么?

不久前我又看回一個魚夫的故事。沒看過?大概就是:

一個富人看到懶散的魚夫,就問他為什麼不多打些魚,
然後多賣點錢,再用來擴大再生產,再擴大,直至成為富人,和他一樣。
接著魚夫會問:和你一樣是什麼樣,
富人很驕傲地回答:曬太陽,懶散舒適地生活了。
魚夫笑曰:我現在不正是如此嗎?

我很相信溫故知新這個道理,把一些故事收起來,得空的時候就把它們拿出來讀一讀。我們作為一個人,目的是什麼呢?

現在的生活,就好比一個在鳥籠裡的鳥,或動物園裡的豹。原本一個自由自在的在天空翱翔,一個在森林裡自由自在的奔跑。自從畢業後開始工作,拜一到拜五過得好忙碌。難得周末從籠子裡解放出來,瘋狂的玩後有回歸沉悶的籠子裡。根本沒有休息的時間。

計算日子的方法,早從一天一天的算,變成了以星期為單位的計算方法。

金錢,來得快,去得也快。

其實,我的願望很簡單,就是不用做。我努力工作的目的就是不用工作。曾經,我把安麗當成可以達成這個目的的方法。不過現在,我比較希望是通過錢滾錢的方法來達到這個目的。


compounded insterest 的重要性,相信很多人都懂。 There is a big different between current value of RM 1k and future value of RM 1k. Many people think to spend now, they told me that the money we earn is to spend. I agree it was true, but if i can save the money i spend now, i can accumualte them and compounded into 2x, 3x... even 10x. Then wat for we used them now? Maybe i can buy a proton now and then pay the installement every month for 5 years, but how if i save the money for 5 years and i can buy a Lancer with cash after that?

People always ask me to enjoy my life. Yes, i do. It cost me alot!! I got a friend, his CK watch cost him RM 800, CK wallet RM 500, CK necklace RM 300. He also wear Amani Exchange and Guess. Do i need to be this? Is this consider enjoying my life? No i don't think so. I feel comfortable when i wearing Jusco T-shirt, each of them cost me less than RM 20. I will still consider for long time just to buy a 15 bucks t-shirt. Yes, i would also buy expensive stuff, when there is a warehouse sale, sale with 70% will definitely attract me .That's why, i don't think buying luxury is enjoying my life.

I know many are f**king rich, they always travel here travel there. I don't ever take a flight. My mum went to Europe, Australia  but ofcoz she didn't me. I didn't blame on her for this. I would earn my own money to travel around the world but not now. My friend also said me: "You save save save, later when u got money to do this stuff, you sudah tak boleh jalan lo~ " Yes i will go travel, once or twice a year is more than enough. I also no need to go so far. People would plan to go for Bali when they are in university, Taiwan when they just start to work, Hong Kong , Japan and Korea step by step. My travel plan is still within Malaysia.

Maybe due to i was courserep during the university, they always ask me to organize for the outing and travel trip. I really want to tell u guys. I really do not go anyway. That's why i don't want to organize. You think i not happy when i organize and seldom people will entertain me. No you are wrong. Although that is the reason that i always spoken. The main reason is i want to save my money.

Ok. I keep on saying i want to say my money. For what? What is your purpose to save money. I honestly tell you, i don't have a plan. Although recently i think that if i have RM 250k, i will open a Subway francis shop. Thanks to AhYap, he makes me clear on my mind and i want to save 100k in 5 years. Somebody told me that it was impossible, most of them are my secondary friends. William even bet with me that i can't get this if i work for people in this 5 years. However, one of my university classmate also told me that it was too slow to get 100k in 5 years. I have no idea why he told me that but i didn't discuss this with him. For me is very easy, now i am 23, i get 100 k when i am 28. If i can get 10% return every year, it will become more than 600 k in 20 years. Maybe in 2036, when i am 48 years old, 600k is not much, but atleat i got 600k.

Please remind that this 600k doesn't include the money i earn after 28. If i also save for a little, just a little enough within this 20 years, i would probably become a millionaire. What is the different between a millionaire while all his money in stock market or investment and another millionaire has a company market value is one million. First of all their living style is totally different.

Come back to the topic. What is the different between me and the fisherman. Yes the fisherman also no need to work now but can i survive if i don't work now? What i want is i don't need to work and i no only able to survive. I also want to enjoy my life. You would say the fisherman is enjoying his life. Yes it is true, but how if the fisherman is boring one day. I definitely a person who very easy feel boring. What could the fisherman do when he feel boring. He don't have money to travel, using his boat? How if the boat damage, how he get the money to repair it? How if one day he sick. Money is everything concern!

Can i conclude that, 我的人生就是為了賺錢?但是賺錢就是為了好好的過我的人生,
這個本來就是一個雞蛋和小雞的問題。

結論是無解。
