Most people want to be rich, but to be rich we need to work hard.

We need to have a lot of patience.

We need to be clever or smart too.

So not everybody can be rich, even if they work hard, even if they have a lot of patience.

Because many things depend on chance and ability too.

of people think if we work hard enough we will be rich they believe like that and what happened is

most of people work hard but have no money why is

that this is the question that i keep asking for a long time

when i was young i worked very hard in the city i asked myself a lot why we work

so hard but have no money.

I work more than 10 hours per day every day but I never have saving in my life.

What happened is just have enough money to pay for rent, have enough money to pay for food,

have enough money to pay for daily expense a little bit and then it's gone.

I look at my friend look at many people around me I found

that there are a few factors that make people work hard

but have no money the first factor is we have the system

that take advantage of most of people people who are not smart enough like me we work hard

but we never get paid very well and some of us may be very smart

but don't have a chance in their life.

They cannot make money.

They cannot save money.

They still work hard.

But most people believe that if we work hard enough, we will not be poor.

We will have money.

Work hard.

And have a lot of patience.

So these people just keep working and working.

At the end, they have nothing.

The second factor is people who want to have fun.

They just enjoy being social, but spend a lot of money for social life.

Every night, go out and have fun every night, and most of the money is gone.

We need to spend money to have fun.

The third factor is most of people who are poor before, we want to have more stuff in our life, more than we need.

We pay for what we want more than we pay for what we need.

It's very addictive.

We want new one.

We want more.

Sometimes most of people have to be in debt for this part.

The last factor is we addicted to something.

We like to do gambling because we expect that one day we will be rich.

So we just pay gambling.

But gambling, nobody can be rich from gambling.

Except you are controlling the gambling.

You control the system.

You can be rich.

You are the owner of the casino, the owner of the gambling system.

You can be rich in that way.

And another thing is addicted to drugs,

alcohol and many things that suck a lot of money from our life.

I think a lot about this thing.

I'm not addicted to drugs.

I stopped drinking.

I don't play camping.

That's what I see.

I need to get out of the system.

I don't think I can solve this system because this is so big.

The whole economic system is so big.

This system, they design to draw a lot of cheap labor from everybody to make someone become rich or have more money.

So the clever people will do that.

They will have that.

How can I solve my problem?

At the time, I just think about why do we need money?

So we need money to buy food, to buy shelter, to pay for shelter.

We need money to buy what we need.

We need money to buy what we don't have.

So to do like that, everybody needs to work hard to make money first.

But if I want to get out of the system, what can I do?

So I experiment to learn to do what I need first.

Go shortcut, not go work to make money and use money to buy what I need.

But I just do what I need.

When I practice to do like this, it seems like everything is so relaxed, so easy after that.

I grow my own food.

It's so easy, it doesn't take long time

And I build my own house I do what I need

to use in my daily life It doesn't take long time to learn to do things

And after that we have more than we need When we have more than we need, we sell it We make income from it So

when I change my life in this way I don't feel like I have to struggle

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
