They have both parents still alive, who each receive a substantial pension, so there are no financial burdens on the family. As early as at the age of 19, he went to Australia to work, enduring all kinds of hardships, and eventually saved enough money to return to Ningbo and buy a commercial shop as well as a two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment to rent out. Perhaps because his experiences abroad were too difficult, upon returning to his home country he wanted to lead a leisurely life; he enjoyed staying at home, playing games, walking the dog, and keeping his home clean, living a simple life of his own. 25 years ago, I was assigned to work at a factory right after graduating from school; my salary was 109 yuan, while our section chief’s salary was around 400 yuan. My parents ran a small shop in our hometown, and they installed a programmed telephone there. At that time, aside from the post office and **, only our shop had a telephone; our monthly income was around 500 yuan. I didn’t think about going back to work at that time either I’d better go back and answer the phone; I just think it’s shameful not to go to work. The world is in constant change; only hard work is the foundation for success!
There are too many people like this these days – they have multiple homes and decent incomes; it’s basically like having a job, only it’s much more comfortable. It’s really enviable and frustrating: lol
Being your own boss.;P
There are tons of such people, especially those who have become wealthy through land expropriation. I’ve seen 6 houses demolished; 4 of them were sold, and the money from those sales was put in the bank to earn interest. It’s a pity he didn’t learn well and turned to gambling. In the end, they ended up homeless. Imagine, if he didn’t gamble, his life would truly be very comfortable.
The landlord of a small town owns two seven-story buildings built by himself; each floor of each building is about 260 square meters in size. On the first floor, there are four storefronts, all located in a busy commercial area； His parents had just retired, each receiving a pension of 4,000–5,000. Being the only son in the family, he found a part-time job in an administrative agency. He married a woman who worked as an accountant in a small company; they had two children. Every day, he drove a Toyota Prado to and from work, went shopping, and took his dog for walks. I also quite yearn for such a life.
Imposing others’ opinions on oneself leads to pain and confusion, and it results in one truly living as the person others see you as. Life is short; be yourself. Strive to the fullest when you want to, earn enough to lead a life you consider decent, and simply live as yourself
As long as you’re happy, that’s enough. You don’t have to go to work; as long as you feel that your current life is what you want, that’s fine. Of course, those who are busy working every day, whether out of choice or necessity, always have some reason to keep going
It is said that you are financially free when your investment income exceeds your salary
