My father is a Yiwu engaged in small commodity trading boss, the net worth million.

When I graduated from Junior high School, my parents decided to send me to Gonzaga Private high School in Washington, USA. This is a 200-year history of the top of the noble school, the students are not rich is expensive, said, parents are very diligent. In order to be able to "international standards", before going abroad, they sent me to learn to play golf, hard riding, high salary to hire an award-winning dancing talent professor of social dance, street dance ...

The first day of school, I take a kind of dazzle rich than expensive mentality, wearing top brand clothes, open the famous sports car came to school.

"Hey, you're from China, right?" "Two boys took the initiative to greet me. "Yes, good of you!" "I thought I would meet two new friends. Unexpectedly, one of the boys laughed and shouted to his partner: "I won!" The other one is cold-faced and touches the cheque-holder, brushing and writing down a bunch of numbers to each other. The winning guy said proudly: "The rich people in China like to splurge, you don't even know that?" ”

Then I was depressed to find the first class sociology in the classroom. Walking into the noisy ladder room, I saw the two American boys who had just laughed at me, and they showed me a bad laugh. At the roll call, I deliberately remembered their names: Gareth and Buck.

Unexpectedly, the sociology teacher, Mr. Manly, told us to gather at the playground after finishing his name, and there was a bus parked there.

After more than 40 minutes of driving, the car stopped at a gate with the sign of the Homeless Relief Center. Mr. Manly said kindly: "To come to Gonzaga school means that you are all in a very prosperous family." But who can tell me what is your most lacking knowledge of society? "Everyone looked at each other, a blank face." I looked at the car under the sign, suddenly heart move, replied: "Should be poor." ”

Mr. Manly praised the head of the place and said: "Yes, the rich birth determines that you are easily one-sided to understand the real world, my responsibility is to add your knowledge to complete." "The sight of the scene still shocked me. Spacious as the airport lounge in the hall, one by one neatly placed hundreds of bed. Above or sitting or lying in a sad face, or the expression of indifferent wanderer.

My service is an old man with a neat dress and a nice look. He stared at me unthinking and asked, "Do You Know me?" ”

The old man leaned over two old papers from under the bed and handed it to me. The top front page headline had a magnified photograph, and the man with the smiling face looked familiar, and I read it hastily, an interview with the business legend Blong.

"That's me. "The old man, with his finger on the picture, said with desolation," I have been rich in oil, but the profligacy, divorce and investment bankruptcy have penniless me now. I can not help but tremble: wealth, such as water, a little less cautious, it may be a drop.

Lesson two: Being a business opportunity for others

Gonzaga has a very special motto: to be someone else. Because of the inherent superiority, Gonzaga's rich two generations have their own character. My contradiction with Gareth and Buck was particularly acute.

I played the defender in the team, and Gareth played center. In training, the most common friction between us was that I passed the ball that I should have passed to Gareth to someone else, and he deliberately delayed the rescue while I was being shot ... Coach Manitowoc Look in the eye, to talk to us a few times, we both unanimously denied the contradiction with each other, and find various reasons to evade.

In a twinkling of an inter-school basketball League. I thought that Gareth, who was in conflict with me, was interested in separating us from the game, but he let us get on the pitch at the very beginning. I decided to put aside my personal grievances for the time being. Obviously Gareth and I thought together, we cooperate with unprecedented tacit understanding. To the end of the third quarter, we are ahead of the opponent 10 points, if not an accident, victory is not ours. But at this point, my psychology began to have some imbalance.

The fourth quarter began, and I began to deliberately avoid getting Gareth to score. When I was so bad I wanted to turn it over, it was too late, and eventually we were defeated by one. Seeing the disdain of my teammates, I was so anxious to find a place to sew.

Coach Manitowoc did not say anything, just told everyone to prepare for the next game. I thought I had to be on the bench. But did not want to two days after the game, Manitowoc in the first round of me and Gareth at the same time sent to the field.

At that moment, I was really grateful, completely abandoned the heart of the selfish desires. In the end, after hard fighting, our team defeated the strong opponent with a slight advantage. After the game, Gareth suddenly came and said in a rare sincere tone: "Hey, man, go swimming in the afternoon?" I nodded forcefully and said, "good." ”

"Hey, kids, congratulations on your understanding of our motto at last." "The coach didn't know where he was coming from," he said happily, patting our shoulders, "you know? To be successful, you must first learn to understand others and to achieve yourself while you are doing others. ”

Lesson three: How to become rich by yourself

Once enrolled, the school has set up a virtual personal account for all the students, and everyone gets a certain amount of virtual money in the school to start money. After that, we have to do is how to use the money to create more wealth.

At the end of each month, after taking stock of each student's personal assets, the school will roll out the wealth rankings, announcing the top ten "millionaires" and the 10 "poor" in the month.

I hesitated for a long time to get the start-up money and I didn't know what to do. So I called my dad for help. Dad also very hesitant, said the national conditions are different. Finally advised me to deposit the money in the bank, steady to take interest, because there is investment failure, as long as the students have failed to invest, I was in front of him. I think this is a good way to put virtual money into the school bank. However, I underestimated the wealth of the second generation of the ability to make money, the month after the list, I unexpectedly ranked in the bottom of the first place.

Next, I started trying to invest the money. After trying to analyze the merits of each stock, I put all my money on a stock called magic information. This time I have a better eye, the month to get a return of nearly five points. Although I unfortunately entered the poor list at the end of the month, the ranking was three ahead of schedule. Anyway, some progress has been made.

In order to be among the "rich", I began to use my spare time desperately to fill all kinds of financial knowledge. At this time, Gareth to me to suggest: "To become a real millionaire, can not only take the money to gamble others success or failure, should have their own entity." ”

His words made me all the more enlightened. But what are you selling? Finally, I put the target products in Chinese characteristics of various ethnic crafts, the price also decided to take the high-end route. Unsurprisingly, these handicrafts with unique Chinese ethnic customs are popular among students, and my assets have quadrupled in the month. Subsequently, my "Chinese craft" Company was set up on campus, and successfully "listed" after one year, successfully rushed into the ranks of "rich".

In the blink of an eye, graduation day arrived, at this time I have received several Ivy University admission notice. One day my mother called and cried and told me that because of the investment mistakes, my father's assets were greatly reduced after paying off the bank loan, I may also need to work to subsidize the tuition. So, if I put it three years ago, I would see the end of the world, but now, Gonzaga's education tempered my will, I believe that by virtue of their own ability can also achieve success.

Family changes let me to Gonzaga "rich second generation" education has a deeper understanding: wealth and will not be taken for granted, the world of money is full of variables, to be invincible, we must know the danger of peace, so that their inner strong, so as to always harness money, not the fate of money.
