I don’t remember where I saw it. Someone asked Buffett: “Your investment system is so simple, why don’t others do the same thing as you?” Buffett replied: “Because no one wants to get rich slowly.”
In one sentence, almost all the problems we face in this era are explained. When human society developed into an industrialized society, due to the substantial increase in productivity, the productivity created in the past two hundred years far exceeded the total productivity created in all previous eras. And when these productive forces begin to be transformed into wealth, what we see is one wealth myth after another, all kinds of overnight wealth.
Maybe when everyone feels that "we will get old if we don't get rich", it is time for us to maintain a patient attitude and look back at patience itself.
