Interesting article, Bill! Didn't know you write articles for newspaper too. I wonder what's your profession...
Greed is human nature and indeed almost impossible for mortals to resist. As Billy suggested, to avoid falling into such traps, we should try to be contented with what we have. Everything is relative. We are always better than many and worse than many others. If we don't appreciate what we already have, we can never be happy no matter how much we possess. I also always remind myself that earning any quick money is the same as gambling. In the long term, you can only lose. "True investment" is actually very safe. Short term returns may be low compared to speculations, but over a period of time and with compounding, making decent returns is not as difficult as many thinks. When there are safe and reliable ways to invest, why risk my money on speculations?? |
