Get Rich

财富自由，经济独立，精神独立，可以对自己不喜欢的事物说：不。

“I had a considerable passion to get rich. Not because I wanted Ferraris – I wanted the independence. I desperately wanted it. I thought it was undignified to have to send invoices to other people. I don‘t where I got that notion from, but I had it.”
（中文大意：我曾有强烈的致富热情。不是因为想要法拉利——我想要的是独立。我极度渴望独立。我觉得不得不向别人寄账单是一件有失尊严的事。我不知道这想法从何而来，但我就是有。）

“I wanted to get rich so I could be independent, like Lord John Maynard Keynes.”
（中文大意：我想要变得富有，这样我就能独立，就像约翰·梅纳德·凯恩斯勋爵那样。）

“It could make me independent. Then I could do what I wanted to do with my life. And the biggest thing I wanted to do was work for myself. I didn’t want other people directing me. The idea of doing what I wanted to do every day was important to me.”
（中文大意：钱能让我独立。然后我就可以做自己一生想做的事。我最想做的就是为自己工作，我不想让别人指挥我。每天做自己想做的事，这个想法对我来说很重要。）

财富自由，经济独立，精神独立，对自己不喜欢的事物说：不，需要节俭、勤奋、聪明、毅力、孤独。提高认知，是最重要的一环。生命是最宝贵的事物，时间是最稀缺的资源。如果有一天，我拥有了一个亿，大概率还会过现在的日子，因为现在的生活，是我想拥有的。拥有了财富，会让生活更精彩。
