The value of money
Hot 3 ||
By the same amount of money, what the thing we could buy becomes less and less. We may say the prices continue to rise. And the money devaluated. In the supermarket, so many people will complaint that the price of fruits or vegetables rises, but can’t imagine that why the price of the house are so high, there still so many people could afford it. How do they make the money? Are there more and more rich people in the world? And for so many common people, the income couldn’t meet the spending. So this is so-called the gap between the poor and the rich. You never know how a situation might turn out in the future.

- Ah.. this is what I was thinking about too. You know, sometimes when I visit residential areas, I would look up to the many different blocks and units, then I wonder what kind of jobs those people are holding that they can afford to live in those costly homes and daily expenses. As for myself, I find that my regular groceries bills keep going up and my payment card money is running out much quicker than before. Things are getting so expensive that I have to cut down on the things I buy. Actually, a lot of people are under serious stress because of low income and extremely high expenses. Sooner or later, people would protest about the difficulties.
Looking at my own situation, the main thing I did right was to buy my own house when I saved up enough money years ago. Houses was cheap in those days and the value of the house goes up many folds. Without having to pay rent, I found that I can save more money and can afford to spend more for travelling etc. Honestly, if I did not buy the house before, I would be living under great stress having to pay rent and expenses. I would need good paying job which is not easy to find.
Unfortunately, buying a house today would be an unimaginable. The prices are sky high and impossible to afford. The only thing people can do is to wait for prices to come down, have a better economy and have more good paying jobs. For the present time, we would have no choice but to save on expenses and live day to day hoping for better days.

- Indeed, the same amounts of money in past can worth more than now, and the prices in living cost so much. The earthern people cost what they have in living, support family and ect. I also don't know how to cope with that problem wisely, only I know at present what I need do is try my best to earn more, and spend less, use money wisely. And at the same time try my best to deposit more money as possible as I can for fear unknown exceptions.
Anyway, money is a problem, for we have to use it to exchange what we need.

- Yeah, and it seams that the price of house is not going to come down, so it's still the big problem for those people without house. In other words, maybe if the price comes down really, it will bring some negative impact for some rich people. So the people without house wish the price come down as soon as possible, while the people with house hope the price continue to increase. Maybe that's so-called social contradictions.
