If you don't have money, don't spend it, and if you want to spend it, you can earn it

Today I would like to talk about a friend's experience, which is another inspirational story. Before I said it, I had to sigh: "After counting it like this, there are a lot of cattle around me, why haven't I been assimilated!"

Let's call this friend Sister Hua. I met Sister Hua in 2003, she lived in the same dormitory with my college classmates, but she was not a classmate of our class, but came to study. Because they are all from Hunan, they are familiar with it relatively quickly. They went back and forth and became very good friends.

Sister Hua is very simple, and after becoming the chief director of a central station, she often made buses with us, ate roadside stalls, and shared a house with her classmates. Sometimes I was so tired that I wanted to take a taxi, and she pulled me to take the subway or something. I've always been unimpressed, and I think everyone's preferred lifestyle is different.

Later, some friends and I became her colleagues at work, and she was our leader, and we traveled a lot together and spent more time together. I slowly learned that Sister Hua's family background is good, which can be said to be very good. Dad is the secretary of the municipal party committee of a city in Hunan (when he was young, he was the secretary of the secretary of a provincial party committee, and he was sent to the local area for exercise, but because he fell in love with Sister Hua's mother, he gave up the opportunity to return to the province), and his mother is also a member of the leadership team of a certain bureau. Sister Hua entered Hunan TV at the age of 20, Ouyang Changlin used to be her direct leader, and her colleague Ma Hao was already the boss of Hunan Satellite TV's entertainment program production. Under the opportunity to become the head of the entertainment department of Hunan Taiwan, Sister Hua chose to study in Beijing. Then I started to look for opportunities and talk about projects on my own.

I've seen how she talks about clients and writes plans until the wee hours of the morning, I've experienced her sharing a small loft with two people to save money, and I've laughed at her non-stop cell phone. I also once asked Sister Hua: Why don't you make proper use of Dad's resources when you talk about customers so hard? Sister Hua's answer was only one sentence: Our children have to support themselves after the age of 18. If you don't have money, don't buy clothes, buy shoes, buy these useless and vain things.

I don't know how many people in Wolong Pavilion are financially independent after the age of 18. I don't know how many people can do it without money, enjoy nothing, don't ask for help, and wait until they struggle to the first pot of gold. I knew I didn't do it, and I probably couldn't. But that doesn't stop me from admiring Sister Hua. I can't stop thinking of Sister Hua when I really want to spend money, and then I immediately become sensible. Haha, if Sister Hua knew that she still had such an educational function for me, she would definitely laugh like a flower in the United States.

I don't want to say too much about how successful Sister Hua is now. (I'm afraid of being said to be showing off my wealth, I'm afraid of being photographed) I just talk about me and us. There are many things I don't know, and there are many things I can't do. Sometimes, I may never be someone I admire. But don't let go of any opportunity that seems to be able to learn something from them.

You have to be the same. Maybe it's different from Sister Hua's career, maybe she's hesitating on the road to job hunting, or maybe she's depressed in a job that can't shine. But please understand that happiness is not so easy, and be strict with yourself. Please don't be frustrated by the current predicament, and show the courage of "don't spend it if you don't have money, and earn it if you want to spend it"!
