Wealth

After reading so many posts on Quora, it made me realise something. Many of the wealthy men on the planet are all humble, down-to-earth people. Those who are truly rich would never throw money at anyone’s face. Right? Not only that they are rich in their pockets, they are rich inside. Rich with knowledge. They know what they want and they know the value of things. The reason why they can stay rich is because they have the knowledge of maintaining their wealth by investing on books, skills, stocks and true friends.

Books will open your eyes to things you have not known before. Skills will propel you further in your career as you are damn good at what you do. Stock, well, make your money work hard for you with your knowledge in the stocks you buy. True friends will stick to you in your ups and downs. No man, in my opinion can live alone. You need companions. Don’t need a bunch, just a few is more than enough.

All in all, now we are young, we can live on basics. Basic food and clothes. Spend more on books. Come to think of it, many are willing to spend RM 1000 on a pair of sneakers but when it comes purchasing a RM 150 book, too expensive. I guess, priorities and your own definition of value. How lasting is your RM 1k pair of sneakers as compared to the knowledge that you get from the RM150 book that may enlighten you to surpass your boundaries and propel in your career? That can almost last forever. I believe that knowledge stays and dies with you. Not clothes, not shoes, not cars nor houses.  

Something that i have to keep reflecting on.

Always grateful and blessed.
