So, you are relatively poor, while other people seem to be incredibly rich. But, getting rich seems like a mysteriously complicated feat...right? Maybe win the lottery some day, become a movie star, or, maybe end up in the right place at the right time and get that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Otherwise, you're just good at being poor.
那麼,你相較來說算窮的,當其他人似乎富可敵國時。但是,變有錢好像是個出奇複雜的技巧...對吧?可能是有天中樂透、變成電影明星,或者,可能最後天時地利人合,得到那個一生一次的機會。不然的話,你就是很會當窮人。
Hey, here's the thing: Becoming rich is very similar to becoming poor. See, the way you get poor is like this: You work hard and buy things that take money out of your pocket. These are what richy-pants financial people call liabilities. And if you keep acquiring these liabilities, eventually, you will be poor. Guaranteed!
嘿,事情是這樣的:變有錢和變窮十分類似。你看,你變窮的方式是像這樣:你賣力工作,然後買些把錢從你口袋掏出來的東西。這些就是跩跩金融人稱為「負債」的東西。如果你繼續買這些讓你負債的玩意,最終,你會變得貧窮。保證!
Now, becoming rich is pretty similar. You still work hard, you still buy things, except, you buy things that put money in your pocket, things like real estate, businesses, stock, things called assets. And assets generate money for you even when you're not working, which grows exponentially with the more assets you buy. And if you keep buying these assets, soon, you will be rich!
現在,變有錢也差不多。你仍然賣力工作、你還是買東西,除了,你買的是一些會把錢放進你口袋的東西,一些像是房地產、做生意、股票的東西,被稱為「資產」的東西。而資產會替你生財,就算是你沒在上班的時候,資產會隨著你買越多資產而以指數方式成長。如果你持續購買這些資產,很快地,你就會變有錢!
