[quote=JIMMYB,279729]Baron, can't agree with you any more. I am also that kind of person who isn't materialistic. As long as my earning can support my family and meet my life style, that is ok. There are some people who often compare themselves with other people. Take this for example, if his neighbour gets a new car, he will feel uncomfortable and decide that he must have a car too. Really sad for these people. They should understand "you live for youself not for others".

BTW, it reminds me of a conversation between a fisherman and a rich man.

A fisherman enjoys the sunshine, lying on the beach. Then a millionaire comes by and asks:" why are you wasting your time on the beach? You should go fishing in the sea." The fisherman says:" Why should I go fishing in the sea?" The millionaire says:" If you can net more and more fishes in the sea and sell them out, then you will earn a huge amount of money. Thus, you can buy you a car and have your house." The fisherman says:" Why should I work hard to make money?"  The millionaire says:" With much money, you can do whatever you want, for example, flying to Hawaii and enjoy the sunshine there." The fisherman says:" What am I doing now?" Then the millionaire leaves without saying a word.

Have you learnt something for the story?[/quote]
