Money is a blessing when it is used rightly. The same is true of all other good things. They bless if used well; they curse when abused. Many people do not seem to know what money is for. They want it above all things. But they want it to spend chiefly on themselves.
Some boys appear to think that money is to buy good clothes and foods, toys and amusements. Some also seem to think that money is to buy leisure with. They consider that the highest happiness is to live without work. But that is not at all what money is for. We should get nearer the truth than that.
參考譯文:
當(dāng)金錢被正當(dāng)使用時,才會是一種幸福。一切美好的事物亦如此:若被善加利用,就會賜福于你;濫加使用,則會降禍于你。似乎許多人都不知道金錢的真正價值,世間萬物中,他們最想得到的就是金錢,可他們只想把錢花在自己身上。
一些年輕人似乎認(rèn)為,錢就是用來買好的衣服、食品和玩具,并用于娛樂活動的。另一些人則認(rèn)為,錢還可以買來閑暇。他們認(rèn)為最大的幸福就是活著而無須工作,但那根本不是金錢的用途,我們應(yīng)該探求其更為深層的價值。
