Money Is Not Everything 金钱不是万能的 Imagine you are Mr. Bill Gates. Life is great; you ’re one of the richestmen on the earth. You can buy anything in life, right? Wrong. Before you ride on the jet of euphoria and focus your entire life on earning money, know there are simply things that a roll of hundred dollar bills cannot get for you, not even if you are Mr. Gates. 想象一下假如你是世界富豪比尔 ?盖茨先生。生活真是美妙极了，你是世界上最 富有的人之一。 你可以买到人生中的一切， 对吗？大错特错了。 在你兴奋得飘飘 欲仙之前， 在你倾注一生所挣的财富之前， 你要知道有些简单的东西是大把的钞 票所买不来的，即便你是盖茨短也买不到。 If you are perplexed, let me explain my theory. It may sound like an oxymoron but money has its Achilles heel.’ All of our false perceptions about money have one common flaw—they identify money as something external to us, they identify money as the tool to accumulate abundance to please others by accumulating possessions. 如果我的理论让你疑惑了， 那么请听我来解释一下。 虽然听起来有点矛盾， 但钱 有它 致命的弱点“ ”。我们关于钱的错误理解都有一个共通点 —— 钱被定义为外在 的东西，代表累积财富的工具，而累积的财产可以讨人喜欢。 What money can ’t buy mostly lies within?Us. Nonetheless, trading our life energy for money can deprive us from inner nourishment that can eventually lead our lives into a downward spiral. 钱买不到的是我们内心中的东西。 尽管如此， 将毕生的精力放在赚钱上会失去内 在的养份，最终导致生活质量螺旋式下降。 1. Time: Money is a tool for trade. With that said we spend a good chunk of our allotted time on this earth getting, spending, worrying and fantasizing about money. You can ’t buy the time and save it in your storeroom even if you areMr. Gates. On the contrary, money takes away your time that could have been spent playing with your children or having a long walk with your alter ego. When the sun sets, a day goes away from our life forever. No money has power to bring that back to life. 1. 时间。钱是一种交易工具。也就是说，我们的时间是有限的，但我们却花大 部分时间在赚钱，花钱，担心没钱，幻想有钱。你不能买下时间存在储藏室里， 就算你是盖茨也不行。相反，为了赚钱，你无暇陪孩子嬉戏，和挚友散步也难抽 出时间。夕阳西下， 这一天就从我们生命中永远消失了。
