On money

In most times people avoid talking about money in Chinese culture, because it shows the social status of the individual. I had a chat with my friends we’ve shared recent happening in our lives, one of them mentioned her husband’s earnings she told us that it’s twice her daily salary, we are all shocked by what she has told us, we asked her about what he does and she said “nothing!” and I was wondering how is he earning loads of money if he’s not doing anything, she told us that he just uses his communication skill to obtain that amount of money. He interacts with his client, and he provides solution. I was so amazed because he doesn’t have fully exhaust his body. And I started thinking about my situation, I’ve been working hard yet I’m still stuck. Did I choose the right path?  or my effort is just not enough, as much as I want to save my money for myself I have obligation to my family, and I realized that hard work is not enough you have to be wise you on how you can uplift yourself and have the desirable lifestyle you want, you need to what it takes to achieve everything you desire.
