Money is very important thing in our lives. Everyone is so busy in earning money and trying to double it. There is nothing bad about it unless it doesn’t affect or harm any other person. People sometimes forget about wrong and right in earning money and make their minds that everything is fair in business, this intention and focus indirectly effect their family or loved ones. They get themselves so much intoxicated in becoming rich that they don’t care about anyone or anyone’s rights and by the time they realize, its already too late. Earning more money by doing good business, working hard to be rich, doing investments, this isn’t bad at all but once you are successful, the real test is to maintain the same personality.
People who gets rich often forget about their past life. They don’t want to remember those hard times. I have seen such situations and experienced it with my relatives. Honestly speaking, I have seen ups and downs in my life and nothing is permanent, it keeps on changing shapes and dimensions. So, what I learnt from it is that money is important but with loved ones and family and friends. I am an exceptional case where I don’t want to run for money, when I was young and my Father was earning dollars, I was stingy at that time too. I don’t waste my Father’s money and I never show off when we visit relatives or friends.
I have heard a lot and seen in movies that wealth do change people into bad but in reality I have never seen such thing. I have seen my two friends becoming rich and wealthy but didn’t experience any kind of change in behavior. We all three joined the same company in 2015 and come to know each other, became friends. One of them went to Dubai in 2018. He is smart enough to get a good job there and in a short period of time, started his own company along with one of his partner in Dubai. He used to visit Pakistan twice or sometimes thrice a year and we all hang out together. He is still the same person whom I knew in 2015.
Going abroad and earning money is the easiest way to become rich in Pakistan but it requires hard work and consistency. However, my other friend became wealthy by doing own business plus job in Pakistan. We three were in the same position in 2015 but now, both of them have their own business. Both of them invested a lot in Cryptocurrency too. But the fact is both of them didn’t changed a bit. The one in Pakistan calls me his teacher and respect me a lot, he is just like a brother to me, always share everything with me to get advice. He accept that I have many ideas but I cannot apply the same to myself. I feel happy for both of them. It is always good to see fellow friends achieving their goals.
One more thing which noticed in both of them is that they do charity and donations a lot. In fact, they think about others a lot and always try to help them because they have lived the same life once and they knew the pain and hardship of those situations. Wealth do change people, their lifestyles, their hobbies, their way of thinking, their appearances etc but they should know the secret of not changing their inner personality, the real personality. I am not sure why people would do such thing after becoming rich. My friends became money making machine but whenever we sit together, I always advise them to invest time to your family too because family always comes first.
