一个美国老人的感悟

Paul Alexandre July 4, 2020

一个美国老人的感悟。与我们现在的中国老人的幸福感有很大差别，其中只有最后一条与郑板桥的“难得糊涂”类似：

What are some things you realize as you get older?

1. People will take advantage of you if you are too nice.

2. The world is a mountain of lies and omissions.

3. No one really cares about you unless they’re family or a good friend.

4. In the end, no one is going to save you and you have to save yourself.

5. The world is in bad shape because governments want to continue having bank credit as currency.

6. Poverty is engineered.

7. Middle class wealth is an illusion that could disappear when bank credit is stopped as happened in the 1930s.

8. Everybody knows and the good guys lost the war as Leonard Cohen said. That’s us struggling today because of the same bullshit that led to the 1930s and WW2.

9. War is about lack of money, debt, resources or strategic locations.

10. The West is hypocritical sometimes towards the rest of the world and its media owned by rich men or groups also practises propaganda.

11. Ignorance is indeed bliss.
