没有钱的生活,可以一样高贵





       今天,看到一篇《拒绝尴尬》的文章,不禁一乐。尚不富裕的日子,我们就该遭受别人的嘲笑与不屑吗?作者用戏谑的笔调、幽默的文风让我们学会如何拒绝尴尬。没钱买一百多平米的房子,就面不改色心不跳地对貌美如花的售楼小姐说“这房子太小了,不是我想要的”;明明相上一款二千多元的日本皮包,却淡定悠然地来了一句“这包不是欧洲产的,我不喜欢”。哈哈,想到作者气定神闲的气派,不禁笑了。谁知道我包里有多少钱啊,就算我的卡上只有几块钱,你知道啊?

       拒绝尴尬,这招高吗,实在是高。但是自己却学不来。

       其实平日里买东西,还是非常挑剔的。不管是家用还是日用,基本都是名牌或专卖店的。声明一下,这名牌可都是国产的啊!没有多大的本事为国效劳,支持国货还是可以略尽绵薄之力的。当然,蔬菜等食用品例外啦,那些东西,宁愿在那些老实巴交的农民跟前买也轻易不愿意上菜市场,更是很少在舒适干净的超市里买的。因为我喜欢在买菜的过程中享受那些没有做过生意的农民们那份诚实与厚道。购物过程中,对于名牌产品的天价也一样不慌不忙,更不会咋咋乎乎。通常对于自己相上但又嫌贵的东西,我会大大方方的说:“这东西实在是漂亮,就是有些贵”;眼神里依然是欣赏,但绝对没有一丝一毫若有所失的的遗憾,更不会在乎售货员用什么样的眼神看自己。不过,售货员很少会鄙夷嘲弄地取笑,临出门时,会甜蜜地送上一句,“再来啊”。很多时候,我会平静地对售货员笑笑,“好的,谢谢”,然后,施施然地离开,继续轻松地游走在那些装潢气派的各类专卖店里,不大饱眼福是绝不会回家的,哪怕什么也没有买;当然,有很多时候,会在名牌店里淘到一些物超所值的东西,那种心情,当然就是意外地惊喜了。名牌就是名牌,不论是穿起来还是用起来感觉就是不一样。如果能花少许的钱据为已有,那种得意的心情一点不亚于成功的感觉:少花钱等于多赚钱嘛,那可是生生的纯利润啊!

       你贵,我看;你贱,我买;你用得起名牌,我也一样享受。你的享受在结果,我的享受在过程。

       何乐而不为?

       你财大气粗,在我眼里不过是发烧;我囊中羞涩,所以这世上多了一个成熟理智的消费者。

       你付账时的潇洒神态,你划价时的雍容气度我没有;我跑疼了腿,磨破了脚,在对高贵与华丽的审美与评判中,同样享受了名牌的潇洒与雍容。不知不觉间,这个世界上,多了个优雅淡定而又精明挑剔的小女人。

       愿世上所有平凡普通如你我的人,都经常去那些富丽堂皇的店里歇歇脚,气定神闲地享受那种超值但免费的服务。没有什么的啦!

       只要你不小看自己,没有人能小看得了你!

       最后,再告诉大家一个心理致胜的法宝:盖茨与李嘉诚论起节俭来,一样名不虚传的。

       真正的财富品质应该是:个性低调,推崇节俭,热衷慈善。金钱不一定能让我们看上去有多高贵,但是,真正拥有财富品质的人,必当高贵。因为,不论在何时何地,他们的内心都会自然地散射出一种凛然不可侵犯的高贵。真正的富翁,节俭是他们永恒不变的底色。

Life Can Still Be Noble Without Money
 

       Today, I couldn't help laughing after reading an article named " Refusal to embarrass". Whether we should suffer from despise when we are not wealthy? The author tells us how to refuse to be embarrassed in his article by using humor tone and teasing style. when you don't have enough money to buy a house more than 100 square meters, you can tell the beautiful selling girl calmly "this house is too small, it is not what I want," You are fond of a Japanese purse costs 2,000 RMB, but you may says nonchalantly "this bag is made in Europe, I don't like it ." Haha, reflecting the author's presence of mind, I  laughed. Who knows how much money I have, even I own tens of thousands of dollars on my card, you don't  know?

     
       Refusal to embarrass, it is a clever trick, so it is . But I cann't do that myself.

       Actually when I buy something in daily life, I am very fastidious, I choose well-known brand or exclusive store no matter on household or daily expenses. I have to say these brands are made in China! since I cann't do much for our conutry, I will only do this to support domestic economic. Certainly, that is not include vegetables , I buy those things from candid farmers rather than in market, rarely from the supermarket , Because I like to enjoy farmer's honest and kind in the process of buying vegetables , so do Shopping for famous brand products . Usually for those attractive but  expensive products, I'll say generously  "this stuff is really beautiful, but a little expensive", I still appreciate but not regret, even not care about how assistant look at me. However, the salesman  seldom make fun of me, he smile, "welcome to come again". many times I will say quietly with smile, "OK, thank you," then left, and continue to wander in the shop which is decorated beautifully, I will not go home until I get an eyeful even I bought nothing, Of course, sometimes I will be surprised at finding some valuable things there. Famous brand can make you feel different. If you can spend a little money to buy it, the feeling is as much as success: well, spend less is equal to earn more, that's where the profit  is!

 I search for things at reasonable price and buy things at low price, you can afford the famous brand, I also enjoy them. You enjoy the results, but I enjoy in the process.

 Why not?

You are rich, but that is nothing in my eyes , I am not wealthy,  but there is one more rational consumer in world.

 You look handsome when you pay for the bills, I don't have the graceful bearing , my leg pains, my foot worn, in the process of aesthetic judgement of  luxuriant nobility, I still enjoy the same brand naturally and gracefully. Unconsciously, this world have one more elegant, captious and shrewd woman.

  Bless all  normals as you and I, who can often go to the splendid store to have a rest , enjoy the overflow but carefreely free services. That is nothing!

 As long as you don't underestimate yourself, no one can despise you!

 Finally, to tell everyone a psychological trump, refering to thrifty, Gates and Li  JiaCheng both live up to their reputation .

 The real quality of wealth should be: low key, frugality and charity. Money may not make us look more noble, however, people with the real quality will be grandeur. Because no matter when and where they are, their hearts will naturally scattering a kind of  inviolable nobility. Real millionaire owns frugality eternally.
