085 Forty-year-old man

"When the nature is self-purified"

Many people see these eight seal characters on the plaque but don't recognize them. Perhaps the owner of this clubhouse didn't intend to let everyone who entered the clubhouse know these words.

The plaque hangs in the most conspicuous place in the hall of the clubhouse, and you can see it as soon as you enter the hall.

Although not everyone knows these words, almost everyone will feel the beauty of these words. The hieroglyphs of Chinese characters have a natural sense of beauty, not to mention the seal style, which is known as the most beautiful Chinese character.

Underneath the plaque, two girls in overalls are counting the papers.

One of the girls picked up her phone, looked at the time, touched the other with her arm, and pointed her finger up.

The other girl nodded and got up and went up to the second floor.

When you open an antique door, you can see seven or eight people sitting inside, chatting about something.

The middle-aged man sitting in the middle seemed to be thousands of miles away, his two thumbs around each other, silent.

"Mr. An, what do you mean?" One of the men asked the middle-aged man.

"I agree with what you say." The middle-aged man smiled and said, "But let me tell you about one of my dreams." ”

Everyone expressed great interest.

"My name is Ankang. I don't know exactly who gave me this name, but it's a very metaphorical name. "I've reached the age of forty. Those of us who do finance generally regard retirement at the age of 40 as our goal. I am honored that I have achieved this goal in life. And, indeed, like my name. Safe and sound, healthy and healthy. ”

An Kang and the girl who had just come in refilled his teacup with some boiling water, and continued: "Forty years old is not a year of confusion. Although there are still many things that confuse me, I still understand a lot about life in general. These are all life experiences that have come out of my years of crawling and bumping into the south wall.

My dream is to build a mechanism, or a system, whatever it's called. Encourage young people to start their own businesses with a systematic approach, help them start their own businesses, and help them contribute to our society. ”

Ankang looked around, and everyone was listening attentively.

"Everyone is a colleague and friend who works in the financial circle of Lujiazui. We have done our part for the development of Shanghai and Pudong. In the process, we have also gained a lot. We have achieved our ambitions as individuals and our families have achieved financial freedom.

However, when he is older, his passion and ambition are far less than they were back then. So instead of thinking about how to do bigger things and make more money, you should think about how to be a mentor for young people and help them realize their dreams and careers.

I once had a mentor who focused on nurturing young people after achieving financial freedom. And he has achieved great success, training many accomplished young people. ”

"Mr. An is one of them."

"Me? I'm still far from it. Ankang shook his head and smiled, "Most of us here and I are almost all people who have achieved financial freedom. I'm doing an initiative here, and we're going to organize an event together that invites young entrepreneurs, investors, and people to participate. Of course, unlike our previous events, this is an open gathering that anyone who is interested can participate. Of course, it's not limited to young people. But I hope that those who participate will give more opportunities to young people. What do you think? ”

"I think Mr. An's suggestion is very good. We, the vested interests, cannot dominate the superior resources of the financial circle in Lujiazui, so that young people can break their heads all day long. We also want to set aside some opportunities for them to develop. We are investing, and in addition to investing in projects, more importantly, investing in people. ”

"Yes, that's a very good statement." Ankang said, "Entrepreneurs do projects, investment managers invest in projects, and we invest in investment managers and entrepreneurs." Isn't that great? ”

"Mr. An. We agree with what you said. Truth be told, our current gatherings are just small talk. If you can have a clear theme, you can share your knowledge and experience with young people. We can get pleasure from it ourselves. ”

Ankang said: "Exactly. My former mentor said the same thing. It's a responsibility, but it's also a joy. It's the same joy that comes from doing charity. ”

"By the way, how is my sister-in-law's charity?"

An Kang smiled and said, "She cares more about charity than her own job. I persuaded her a few days ago. Since you are so keen on charity, it is better to quit your job and concentrate on charity. As a result, she said that she was very energetic and could do both. Unlike an old man like me, who can only do one thing at a time. Hahaha. ”

"Mr. An, you are not an old man, you have just arrived. Next, there are the Knowing the Destiny of Heaven, the Sixtieth Birthday, the Ancient Rare, the Elderly, the Expectation and the like. You're only half of your life, oh no, it should be a third. ”

"Why isn't it an old man? Now people born in the 90s call themselves uncles and aunts, and people born in the 80s lament that they are old. How can we be embarrassed by the favor of the post-70s. ”

"If you plan to help young people start their own businesses, how do you do it?"

"I've been thinking about this for a long time, and I have a whole set of ideas. In short, this is a serious business, but it is completely unnecessary to be so serious and rigid. Today I'm just asking for your opinions. If you have no comments, then I will make my plan into a PPT next time and make a formal report to you. What do you think? ”

"Hahaha. That's great. It's been a long time since we've heard Mr. An give a speech on PPT. Mr. An's PPT speech is definitely textbook-level. ”

"It's a prize!" An Kang said, "Since it is a PPT speech, it is nothing more than seriousness and passion." It is indeed necessary to make a formal speech with PPT, otherwise the passion is about to be exhausted. Before I retired, I was thinking about how to retire and what to do after retirement. But after actually retiring, I found that retirement is really not done by people. ”

"Mr. An, I agree with what you said. After I retired, I spent three years traveling around the world. Where there is fun, where there is danger. Later, I slowly got tired of it. After all, I'm not Xu Xiake, not a traveler. Traveling is my hobby, but it's not the only one. So I expanded into many other interests. Later, I found out that it was quite tiring to be interested for the sake of interest. I found that my real interest was in investing. It's not about making money. Money is a number to me now. I just love watching those numbers grow. It's this hobby. ”

"To put it bluntly, isn't it an al-crook." One person quipped.

"That's right, you're right. I walked around and realized that I was a miser. I support Mr. An's suggestion. ”

Ankang got up and said, "Everyone can treat this as a new venture. If we succeed, we will create a group of talents. If we fail, what do we have to lose? Time? We seem to have a lot of time to pass nowhere. What are you afraid of in a few years? ”

"Yes, let's create this business together!"
