Chapter 496 – Game and Reality
Masayoshi Kishimoto, Rie Sakai, and Meiling Sakai were seated in different directions. Each of them was holding an equal share of the game’s opening “cash” in their hands.
Masayoshi Kishimoto’s intention was not to play Monopoly with them, but rather to use this game to solve the two sisters’ problems.
He threw the dice onto the board and started to move forward with his own piece according to the numbers that appeared.
After Justice Kishimoto was done, he slowly said, “Monopoly seems to be an ordinary board game, but in fact, it encompasses real estate, stocks, economics, and other specialized fields.
Regardless of how the economy is doing, there will always be people talking about finance, stocks, securities, gold, real estate and so on on different occasions.
If you believe, you will be a rich man tomorrow. If you don’t believe it, you will be a pauper for the rest of your life. Is the person who is speaking Monopoly? No, he is not. Even if he is packaged like a Monopoly, he is not a real Monopoly.
Just think about it a little bit, would a tycoon say these things to an ordinary person he doesn’t know? How could he possibly make a financing from the hands of ordinary people?
The top 1% of the social pyramid, that is, the Monopoly. They hold more than fifty percent of the wealth of society.
Not to mention ten thousand ordinary people, even one hundred million ordinary people may not have as much wealth as one of them. Even if he needed to raise funds, he would have channels that were hard for ordinary people to reach.
Inside their heads, they think about more things is how to be able to children and grandchildren, generations of leeks harvested crop after crop after crop.
The famous economist Henry George has long talked about polarization in his book Progress and Poverty. The rich class is getting richer; the poor class is getting more dependent; the gulf between the employed and the employer is widening; and the gap between the rich and the poor in society is becoming more pronounced every day.
Kenzaburo Oe, the Nobel Prize winner for literature, said that in his opinion, there were no more than 2,000 people in the whole of Japan who really knew about literature. In his opinion, there are not more than 2,000 people in Japan who really know about literature. There are nearly 130 million people in Japan, and it is also called the land of books.
I would like to change his statement to say that there are very few people in Japan, not to mention the whole world, who really understand economics, finance, management, and other business fields.
When the economy is overheated, everyone is an investor. Even people who don’t know anything about the stock market will buy stocks and even think they are stock gods. Who let the stock market is rising every day, just buy that one are able to make money.
Those who don’t understand financial products at all will likewise buy them. Why do they have such stupid behavior? Often, they are either completely fooled by the banks or the people involved in the securities companies, and so on.
Some of them are both pitiable and hateful. A pitiful person must be hateful, that is to say, such a truth. Their poor is being pressed by the top of the target task, the result of failure is light is deducted wages, bonuses, and heavy is dismissed, lose their jobs.
In order to work, more money, they in order to complete the personal target task to do things against their conscience. In the promotion of financial products, either to avoid the important, simplified and simplified, or is confusing, so that people listen to the clouds and fog, but also embarrassed to say in person that they do not understand, resulting in letting the buyer will produce a delusion, making money is very easy.
In fact, it is completely contrary to the reality of making money is not easy rules. The tragedy of suicide thus began to arise one by one. They are not murderers, but they are more hateful than murderers.”
“Don’t you think you’re being funny when you say some of this? You’re a plutocrat yourself.” Rie Sakai couldn’t help but spit out.
“In my opinion, human society equalizing the rich and the poor is just an ideal, nothing more. Even if it is all zeroed out and everyone starts over on top of the same starting line, it will still increase little by little over time, thus little by little the gap between the rich and the poor will once again widen.
In addition to IQ and EQ, people must also have financial intelligence. The vast majority of people in the world do not have any financial intelligence.
Even if you give them a hundred million dollars of start-up capital, they will still end up being debt-ridden paupers. The reason is simple.
It’s because they haven’t developed a proper mindset for making money. Investing and spending money indiscriminately is tantamount to chronic suicide. This one fact has been proven for a long time.
Look at all those celebrities who have won the jackpot, or all sorts of this and that. Most of them end up ending their lives poor.” Justice Kishimoto explained.
“Don’t talk to me about that something that’s far away from me. Or talk to me about something that’s close.” Rie Sakai said in dissatisfaction.
“I just love it when Brother Justice says some of these things.” Sakai Mirei rested her left hand on her cheeks and looked at Kishimoto Masayoshi with a beaming smile as her beautiful eyes flowed.
“I’ll just say the near thing. Meiling, indeed, is a gold-digging woman, even she admits it herself. I don’t think that’s much of a flaw.
Who doesn’t love money? Everyone loves money. It’s just that some people dare to say it, while others don’t. In this one aspect, I do think Meiling is quite honest.” Justice Kishimoto said without haste.
“Thank you, Brother Justice. You’re the one who understands me the most.” Sakai Meiling was incredibly happy.
“In the world’s eyes, Mei Ling’s flaws go beyond gold worship. She also has a greedy side. The other side of greed is the ability to trend people onward and upward. The source of human progress comes from the greed in the midst of human nature.” Justice Kishimoto calmly said.
“Thank you, thank you, Brother Justice, you know my heart the best.” Sakai Meiling applauded on her own with both hands.
“Since you think all her flaws are strengths, then you can just marry her. Why do you have to marry me?” Sakai Rie said indignantly.
“You’re just too impatient, let me finish! The root of your sisters’ conflict lies in me. Actually, it’s quite easy to solve this one.
Monopoly’s second game mode, Prosperity. It’s all about cooperation and sharing. Why don’t you all marry me together?” Justice Kishimoto smiled without saying a word.
“You go to hell! Either you marry me, or you marry her. Or, you marry me, and then when I die, you marry her.” Rie Sakai said firmly.
Kishimoto Masayoshi and could he not know that you can’t have both the fish and the bear’s paw? The reason he said it was not to get Sakai Rie to agree, but rather a way to test how much the other party really loved him.
A woman who fell in love with a man would never do anything to share it with another woman. Even Natsui Makoto couldn’t do it of her own accord.
The reason why she would “beg and plead”, that was also something that could not be helped. In the beginning, Kishimoto Masayoshi did not let her choose, either so not married, or only lose and end.
