Why do poor people always fail to meet noble people?
One of my college classmates is very good at stock trading and often makes money. Occasionally, he would share some stocks he is optimistic about. One of my colleagues, on the other hand, is always losing money in stocks, having lost over a hundred thousand in total. So, I introduced them to each other.
Then my classmate taught him how to trade stocks, how to read some technical indicators, when to buy, and when to sell. After a year or two, my colleague managed to break even by about forty or fifty thousand. If this keeps up, he might just turn things around.
During the New Year, my colleague called him on WeChat to wish him a Happy New Year and sent an 8.8 yuan red envelope.
Later, my classmate deleted him from WeChat and stopped contacting him. My colleague asked me for his phone number to call him and ask what to do next.
My classmate brushed him off with a few vague words and hung up. My colleague complained that he wasn't being considerate enough; he didn't know how to properly show gratitude.
What we consider a noble person is not the same concept as what he thinks a noble person is.
We think: having an expert guide you in stock trading, helping you earn a little money, that is a noble person. And of course, you should show some appreciation.
What he thinks a noble person is: someone tells me which stock will hit the limit up tomorrow, I buy it and make a profit, then he tells me which stock will hit the limit up the day after tomorrow, I continue to buy and continue to profit, and that is all expected. Guaranteed profit with no loss. That is my noble person. Not knowing how to be grateful or understand human relationships means you are destined to waste your life!
