'I'm Happy just to get by'

[Jamesc]

I don't worry about young people in China lying flat with each other.

All young people all think about is lying flat with each other.

When they get married and have kids and bills to pay

see if they can afford to lie flat lah!

In face when young is the best time to lie flat.

Got MIL you can never rest.

If I had the money

I also join all the young people

and lie flat with as many of them

as possible.

John C. Bogle, founder of The Vanguard Group originally delivered this speech as the commencement address for MBA graduates of the McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University in May 2007. His speech was titled "Enough"

Here’s how I recall the wonderful story that sets the theme for my remarks today: At a party given by a billionaire on Shelter Island, the late Kurt Vonnegut informs his pal, the author Joseph Heller, that their host, a hedge fund manager, had made more money in a single day than Heller had earned from his wildly popular novel Catch 22 over its whole history. Heller responds, “Yes, but I have something he will never have . . . Enough.”

 

IMO, the 2 biggest life skills that most people have trouble in learning is "Letting go"  and knowing what is "Enough".  Having attachment to everything and continually taking in more and more not knowing when is enough is a sure path towards stress, depression and troubles ahead.

In my opinion, it is not just about letting go alone but knowing how to balance and knowing your limits. If you only let go each time you encounter challenges, you will have nothing to let go very soon. 😆

All biz men are like that. COE drops, their current stock purchase high losses. COE shoots up, their interest and backlog losses. But they drive big cars and stay in bangalow, also cost money. That is why lost money

You don't like your MIL?

You want one with no brakes and steering cannot go straight and suspension about to collapse?

I can give you a very good price for your MIL last car.
