Two financial stories have opened your eyes.

To understand this problem, let's first look at what we can get from a classic story in a financial circle. overlook ...

It's a lazy day in a hot American town. The sun is shining, the streets are empty, and everyone is heavily in debt and lives on credit.

At this time, a passenger came from China. He went into a hotel, took out $65,438+0,000 yuan and put it on the counter, saying that he wanted to see the room first and choose a suitable one for the night.

Just as the man went upstairs, the shopkeeper grabbed the bill of $ 1000 and ran to the butcher's shop next door to pay for the meat he owed.

With 1000 dollars, the butcher crossed the road and paid off the pig money of the pig farmers on the farm.

The pig farmer took 1000 dollars and went out to pay the fees he owed.

The guy selling feed got $65,438+0,000 yuan, and paid off the money for his prostitute in a hurry (the local service industry had to provide credit services because of the economic downturn).

The prostitute rushed to the hotel with 1000 dollars and paid the room fee she owed.

The hotel owner put 65438 yuan+0,000 yuan on the counter to avoid the Tangshan tourists who had just seen the house getting suspicious when they went downstairs.

At this time, the passengers came downstairs and picked up 1000 dollars, claiming that none of them were satisfied. He put the money in his pocket and left. ...

On this day, no one produced anything, and no one got anything, but the debts of the whole town were cleared, and everyone was very happy. ...

What does this story tell us? Answer: This is finance. Money needs circulation to produce value! And economic data is just a game!

This game can be big or small, as small as individuals, groups, institutions, organizations and even countries.

Some people say that the essence of finance is to turn the money in your pocket into the money in my pocket, and the problem comes again.

Similarly, let's see what we can learn from another financial story.

overlook ...

There is a small village at the foot of the mountain of wealth. Every ten years, 500 young people in the village go to the mountains to look for treasure, because it is said that there is a lot of gold on the top of the mountain, but only a few people can come back alive. An old man went to the top of the mountain when he was young, so a young man named A Dai was very timid. He ran to ask the old man how to get the gold and come back alive. The old man told him: "There is indeed gold on the top of the mountain, but it must pass the crocodile in the river below, the panther who comes out at midnight to eat people's heads on the mountainside, and finally the dragon who spits fire on the top of the mountain." If you can reach the top of the mountain, you can go down from the other side of the top, and there is no gold all the way. Whether you can come back or not depends on your life. But the old man sent three pieces of paper to A Dai and asked A Dai to open it in case of danger.

The next day, A Dai set out with more than 500 other people. When they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw many evil fish with big mouths in the river, so a group of brave young people jumped into the river and tried their best to swim to the other side. But these crocodiles are very fierce and hungry, and groups of young people are swallowed by crocodiles. A Dai was so scared that he quickly opened the first note, which read: "When everyone else jumps, the crocodile will naturally stop eating when it is full, and then you can slowly cross the river." In this way, A Dai and two hundred people who escaped by luck spent the foot of the mountain together. After coming to the foot of the mountain, everyone saw gold coins scattered on the road. Everyone was very happy and hurried on while picking it up. A few days later, everyone came halfway up the mountain. Everyone was so excited and tired that they fell asleep quickly when they slept at night. Suddenly there was a scream, and some panthers came out of the Woods and took away some sleeping young people. Everyone had no time to react, and those people had been taken back by Panthers to share. Everyone is very scared, but no one wants to go down the mountain because they expect to find more gold. However, everyone is very tired. If they don't sleep, they can't go on, and they may be eaten by panthers at any time. When everyone was at a loss, A Dai himself opened the second note, which read: "When most people are awake, you can sleep safely. When most people are sleeping, you should be vigilant. " In this way, every night someone was eaten by the panther, but A Dai survived, and continued to pick up the gold coins dropped by his dead companions with 100 other living people, and moved on. Finally, they came to the top of the mountain. There are no gold coins on the top of the mountain. Suddenly, a red dragon jumped out from behind the boulder at the top of the mountain and sprayed flames at people looking for gold coins. Many people have been burned and are still running around looking for gold coins on the ground. Some people actually hit dragons with wooden sticks, and all of them were burned to death, and gold coins were scattered everywhere. At this moment, A Dai quickly opened the third note, which read: "Don't think about anything, run for your life". A Dai threw away the note and turned and ran down the hill. Seeing gold coins all the way, he didn't bother to pick them up. When he came back from afar, he saw only a few young people coming out after him, and most of them were still injured. Finally, A Dai went home with a bag of gold coins.

? A Dai thanked the old man for his life-saving straw and gave him half of the gold. The old man insisted on not saying, "This gold is yours." A Dai said, "No, only a small amount of gold is mine. Most of this gold was thrown by dead companions at the top of the mountain. " At this moment, the old man was silent for a while and said to A Dai, "To tell you the truth, gold coins are produced in the soil at the foot of the mountain, but there are never any gold coins on the top of the mountain. Every ten years, the dragon will pick up the gold coins dropped by the dead people at the top of the mountain and scatter them at the foot of the mountain and mountainside again, attracting new young people to the top of the mountain for them to enjoy.

? 1. Crocodile & Panther & Fire Dragon is the so-called "main force" and organization. At the foot of the mountain, if they don't collect enough chips, you can't go up. Halfway up the mountain, try to wash away the profitable chips without affecting the layout behind; There are really not a few retail investors who have climbed all the way to the top. It's not that easy to settle down.

? 2. Without risk control ability, blindly entering the stock market is likely to be the road of no return for gold diggers. Radicals are buried at the foot of the mountain, followers and people who lack reverse thinking are thrown down the mountainside, and greedy and crazy people die at the top of the mountain.

? 3. Most of the gold comes from the best friend, that is to say, the profit of the secondary market comes not from the growth return of listed companies, but from the principal chips lost by other participants in stock price fluctuations, which is a bloody profit. Therefore, it is very important to throw high and suck low, and think independently and reversely.

4. Note 1 refers to waiting patiently for the arrival of the safety margin; Pay attention to two fingers, keep a distance from the masses and think reversely; Note 3 means that in the bubble period, it is most important to cash in chips, lighten positions and keep the fruits of victory. When danger appears, it is most important to give up greed and live.

The above two short stories clearly tell us that finance is sometimes beautiful, but sometimes it is like a nightmare. Since it is so terrible, do you not participate in or even understand finance? On the contrary, Archimedes, a famous scientist in ancient Greece, has a famous saying handed down from ancient times: "Give me a fulcrum and I can move the whole earth". Yes, by making good use of the good side of finance, he can help ordinary people move towards the road of wealth and freedom.

Well, I hope that through today's two stories, you can understand and think about finance, and help you plug in a pair of financial wings and fly higher!
