10/2

Exams are coming... very fast, exam will be over too... looking for a part time job to work during my holiday.
I was wondering today.... how important is money to you? Very important? not that important or average?
Comparing with the term 'materialistic', how much will you sacrifice yourself to get the benefits e.g money?
The basic definition of materialistic no longer just apply to people who sees money as very important. I find that more people are getting more materialistic nowadays. Why is there a sudden change?

 

 Look at the picture above. What are you thinking now? What is that emotion? If you have strong reaction, then I believe I can conclude that money is quite important to you. 

So how do you see whether are you materialistic or not? Ask yourself this question: Are you willing to do anything for money? Your answer may be NO now but if this sitaution happens to you for real. you may seriously do anything for the large sum of money. Why is money so powerful? Phrase like 'no money no talk'
is getting popular because it's true.... it's true that when you don't have money, people ignore you(maybe family won't). But face the reality... in the real world... this is a fact. 

People say that money cannot buy happiness,life and emotion etc.

Story 1: A couple who is rich and a couple who is poor getting to get married at the same time. As time pass, you will see that the couple who is rich have more happiness. It's true that money cannot buy happiness. But the main question is why do money have to buy happiness when money=happiness itself?

Story 2: Are you sure that money can't buy life? There are people who pay money for assassin to kill someone. Isn't this buying of life? 

3: Money can affect emotions directly.

Anyway, the main topic I want to say today is not money but materialistic people.

How much are you willing to sacrifice for the sake of money?

Prostitutes are willing to sacrifice their body to have sex with a stranger for the sake of money.

Salesman are willing to sacrifice their time to persuade people to buy for the sake of money (basic + commission).

So how large will your sacrifice be?

For example, if a stranger were to come to you and ask you to french kiss him in front of your bf and he is going to pay you $5,000, will you? maybe you will...maybe you won't. But bear in mind that $5,000 in your mind may be a small amount but in real, it's a big amount.

Last but not least, there are people who sacrifice their own life for the sake of money too... for example, people who commit suicide for the sake of insurance claim?

Think about how important is money to you and are you a materialistic person. Ask the same questions to your partner(gf/bf) too.
