In the world, everyone should make good use of wealth. We need to know the meaning of the wealth we have today and cherish it seriously and make good use of it. Only in this way can we have happiness. For each of us, the rational use of wealth is more important than the amount of wealth we have!

Have you ever heard of abstinence? The abstinence theory of the 19th-century British economist Senior. Abstinence is a term used by Seniors to put forward the theory of abstinence, which is used to refer to the capitalist giving up immediate pleasures, that is, abstaining from the desire to consume in the present. Capital, on the other hand, is the result of surpluses, one of the most strenuous efforts of the human will.

It was truly one of the hardest efforts of the human will, and Wu Lie had experienced it himself. Relying on one's own will to control one's desires is like a man experiencing famine!

First of all, he had to save money from his own mouth first. Every time he had breakfast, Wu Lie ate food brought from home. Whatever you buy to eat, you have to go through Wu Lie's strict control. Sometimes, even if you buy a sugar wheel, you have to buy it (supermarkets sell it by catty), as long as you have fourteen pieces of sugar in seven days, and you won't want one more piece of Wulie. And cheap milk, bread......

Among the food prices in the No. 2 Middle School canteen, the cheapest vegetarian dishes are soy products. Dishes such as dried tofu with sharp peppers and spicy tofu are only 2.5 yuan per spoonful, and he basically only eats one spoonful of vegetarian vegetables per meal, and it only costs 3.5 yuan for one meal. He is strict with himself, and he does this every meal, in the middle and evening. In this way, the meal fee for a day is only 7 yuan.

He didn't have to buy water yet, he specially bought a thermos water cup, and there was a water dispenser in the classroom, so he drank this. Whenever the water in the classroom ran out, he was responsible for carrying the entire bucket of bottled water to the classroom on the fifth floor. Not only for others, but also for yourself. Therefore, the cost of eating and drinking every day is basically strictly limited to about 7 yuan. On average, the family will give Wu Lie 400 yuan every two weeks, and in this way, he can save 300 yuan every two weeks.

He was so strict with himself, and he really did it!

However, the side effects are also very large, in early 2013 - early 2014, Wu Lie, who was in high school. Experiencing a famine of his own making, which was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster! It is his own will, he even sometimes feels that his whole body has no strength, and the feeling of hunger is terrible, only those who have experienced it know! Not everyone can bear the torment of abstinence, but he has endured it.

At that stage of his life, he was using this way to prove his worth by fighting against the worldly vision of the supremacy of academic performance!

He persevered until his disposable wealth had reached 10,000 yuan. At that time, he became the first person in their class to be worth more than 10,000 yuan.

One Saturday when he was online at home, he saw an inspirational story. It is the story of the world's first billionaire, the oil magnate "Rockefeller", who became an unprecedented billionaire in various ways. But he never smoked or drank all his life, had a rigorous private life, and was diligent and thrifty all his life. Rockefeller regarded gold as his life, and at the age of sixteen, he spent a dime to buy a ledger to keep track of every income and expense.

Wu Lie was moved by Rockefeller's inspirational story. Therefore, he intends to learn to keep accounts for himself like Rockefeller. Write down all the money you have saved. So, he bought a blue four-page paper-sized ledger from a stationery store. I also began to keep accounts.

He went from simply keeping a record of income and expenses, to a habit of keeping a weekly general ledger once a week and a monthly general ledger once a month. This habit allowed him to regain his value, and he didn't think that he was saving money, but changed to another high-end term "financial management"!

He put all his Virgo's meticulous feelings on the ledger, and likes to put posters of various inspirational characters on the ledger. It was said that "you have to buy something for $1 for 40 cents." Warren Buffett; One resume reads, "I had $1 million when I was 23, $10 million when I was 24, and $100 million when I was 25." Steve Jobs; There is also Carnegie, the "oil king" of the 20th century, who said that "all wealth, all achievements, are just an idea at first".

Later, he slowly formed his own new ideal ——— capitalist!

Don't think that Wu Lie was just thinking about it at that time, he really took action. One day, he used a few pages of posters printed in color from the photocopy agency, cut them to the right size for the pages of the ledger, and pasted them into the ledger.

The first page is a cover.

First of all, there are four big red letters at the beginning, "The Fortune Hunt", and then, there is a big picture below, which is the picture of Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice". At the bottom, four paragraphs are written in red font:

Life is like a game,

There can be no rewards.

But also to play wonderful,

Play beautifully!

The second page is the game introduction page. It reads like this:

Game Description:

It's a game where reality and fiction come together, and people outside the game can only observe some of the player's achievements in the real world. And you will never feel the changes that have taken place in the player's virtual world (i.e., inner world: world view, outlook on life, values).

This is a game that has never been played before, and the player is imprisoned by the ideas formed in his own heart (which is also the rule of the game), and the reward of the game is wealth and some spiritual gains.

Game Background:

July 2014......

I saw the goddess of fate in my dreams, and he made me see my future self. He's going to play a game, a game that puts my life on the line. The game time is uncertain. It could be years, decades, or even a lifetime. The goddess of fate said he would give me what I wanted. But I found that there was a fog in front of me, and the game began......

The third page is the page of the player's profile.

At the beginning is a small two-inch photo of Wu Lie placed in the center.

Under the small two-inch photo, it is written:

Name: Duanmu Wulie

Date of Birth: 1995-08-15 (Lunar Calendar)

Nationality: Chinese

Nationality: Han nationality

Occupation: High school student

Personal profile: The No. 1 player of the wealth hunting game, with up to one and a half years of wealth hunting experience, and moderate wealth hunting skills. The initial wealth of the game is about 14,000 yuan (RMB).

The fourth page is a chapter page.

First of all, there are seven big red letters at the beginning, "Chapter 1 of the Wealth Hunting Game". Then, separated by a paragraph, it was bold in red font, and the words "Pixiu people" were written on it, and it was also specially underlined. Then the following is a picture of Pixiu's Chinese painting, which reads:

Pixiu: also known as Tianlu, ward off evil spirits, Baijie, a total of four names, is a kind of mythical beast in ancient Chinese myths and legends, dragon head, horse body, lin's feet, shaped like a lion, gray fur, can fly. Pixiu is fierce and mighty, and it is responsible for patrolling the heavens to prevent demons, monsters, plagues, and diseases from disturbing the heavens. In ancient times, people also used Pixiu as the name of the army. Its staple food is gold, silver, and jewelry, and it can swallow everything without leaking. You can attract wealth and treasure, only in and out. The supernatural power is special, so Pixiu is regarded by the folk as an auspicious beast that beckons wealth and gold.

Wu Lie used his habit of playing alone since he was a child to manage his finances. He set himself a goal of 30,000 yuan in his hand when he graduated from high school. And it is especially marked on the top, don't think about anything about money during the class, and be sure to get into an ideal university.

Wu Lie has taken money management as a pleasure. Of course, this habit can be very positive at times. He was no longer satisfied with just saving the little money he had on his lips, he had more interesting ideas.

At that time, Wu Lie found that many of his classmates didn't like to be on duty. So Wu Lie felt that he had found a business opportunity, and he decided to be on duty for others, 3 yuan a day for the blackboard, 5 yuan a day for sweeping the floor, and 2 yuan for taking out the garbage once. In this way, you can earn money for a day's meals.

Moreover, Wu Lie also found that the students needed to throw away many bottles to drink water every day. Wu Lie saw a business opportunity again and prepared a large plastic bag. He told his classmates who often buy water not to throw away the bottle after drinking it, just give him the bottle directly. He puts his classmates' bottles in plastic bags and drags them to the recycling station every Saturday afternoon when he has a holiday. It can also be sold for dozens of dollars a week.

He also often participates in some activities that can make money, such as the provincial sports meeting of Linhai Province held in Luxiang County that year, and a male classmate in the class needs to be a staff member at the sports meeting. Seven days of work, noon and evening food, each person can also receive a subsidy of 700 yuan. Wu Lie volunteered to sign up, and in the end, the classmates in the class unanimously agreed, probably because Wu Lie's hard-working performance left a good impression on the students.

In this way, Wu Lie became richer and richer, and he became more and more stingy.

Some classmates don't like Wu Lie like this, think that Wu Lie regards money as his life, and even feel that he is a little weird. It can't be helped, no one is born to be liked. Wu Lie still insisted on himself, and he was also moving towards his goal step by step.

Until the first semester of the third year of high school......
