Life | If you don't have such a big head, don't wear such a big hat!
After Sri Lanka went bankrupt, news of bankruptcy began to appear around, including some people uploading that Malaysia and Thailand are the next bankruptcy countries. Of course, it is fake news out of nothing.
As Malaysia’s Finance Minister Tunku Saifulu said, “The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has never said that Malaysia is experiencing economic problems. Instead, it is full of confidence in Malaysia’s economic growth prospects! The IMF recently stated, We are confident that our country's GDP will grow at a rate of 5.75% this year."
The Malaysian parliamentary election is approaching, and there will always be a lot of fake news. Although the country is not facing bankruptcy, there are friends around who are facing serious financial problems.
A friend of mine lives in a well-off family with a salary of more than 3,000 ringgits. He took out a loan to buy a luxury car of nearly 100,000 ringgits, and pays more than 1,000 ringgits a month. The telecommunications company takes the package and provides more than 300 ringgits a month.
He is dressed in branded clothes, wears branded watches, and carries branded bags, but he borrows money from us from time to time for emergencies, because his salary is difficult to cope with loans, expenses, and repayment of card debts. Swipe card with future money. All his friends advised him to do what he could, but he believed that nowadays people are all about their style. The so-called Buddha relies on golden clothes and people rely on clothes. He wants to live decently in front of relatives and does not want to be looked down upon.
But is this a decent life? I feel that it is a very fortunate thing, carrying a heavy debt, worrying about it all the time, possibly going bankrupt due to car loans and defaulting on credit card debts, etc., in the end, it may make my life even more dignified!
I saw a sentence on the Internet with deep feelings. It was written like this: "Life is yours, whatever ability you have, you can live the life you want. Don't embarrass yourself. What you can easily lose, really talk about it. No regrets."
Life is one's own, not in the eyes and mouth of others.
I used to be very concerned about how my relatives and friends treated me, so I also wore a famous brand, and followed in and out of high-end places. Every month before the middle of the month, my pockets were empty, and I had to borrow money from my family for emergency. Some of them have lived for more than a year. In the end, they found that not only did they owe their family members a debt, but their spirits were not good. Most importantly, they didn't feel that they were really happy, but they were a little dazed.
In the end I decided to live a life that made me feel comfortable and unburdened. Now, as much as I have the ability, I just use the things within my ability, such as mobile phones. My requirements are to be able to use it, to be able to access the Internet, and to be able to simply handle things at work. I have replaced two mobile phones in the past few years. 1,000 yuan.
Now, apart from the mortgage on the house, I have no other debts. I don't have too much debt, and I feel more at ease and happy.
Like my work? Don't forget to support and clap, let me know that you are with me on the road of creation. Keep this enthusiasm together!
