‘Still poor? You deserve it’

Post by MajGenl.Meade »

Personal issues much?

1 Oct 2014 The Times (South Africa)
‘Still poor? You deserve it’
Founder of internet giant Alibaba, lays down the rules for becoming a winner
..... article ends with this summary...
You are poor because you do not have the desire to become successful
You are poor because you lack foresight
You are poor because you cannot overcome your cowardice
You are poor because you lack courage and ambition
With ambition you can overcome all inferiority and maximize your potential
With ambition you can persevere, continuously learn new things and strive for perfection
With ambition you can defy all odds and create miracles when others dare not
No matter how poor your family is, do not doubt your own abilities and lose sight of your ambitions
When your parents do not have money to pay the medical bills, no one will pity you
When you are beaten by your competitors, no one will pity you
When your loved ones abandon you, no one will pity you
When you have not accomplished anything by the time you are 35, no one will pity you.
Go big or go home. Otherwise you are wasting your youth.

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Asshole. :x
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

When someone punches you in the face for no reason, you deserve it.
“If you trust in yourself, and believe in your dreams, and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”

One of my colleagues from China (he is 70 now) said that in China Jack Ma is regarded as something of an alien. Not to be compared with ordinary human beings.


But he expresses ideas exactly like those of Mitt Romney the Koch brothers, and the other rulers of the Republican right.
