On life 关于生活

I think life is a whole series of opportunity costs. You know, you got to marry the best person who is convenient to find who will have you. Investment is much the same sort of a process.

我认为人生就是一连串的机会成本。你要知道,你必须嫁给最适合你的人。投资也是同样的过程。

Another thing, of course, is life will have terrible blows, horrible blows, unfair blows. Doesn’t matter. And some people recover and others don’t. And there I think the attitude of Epictetus is the best. He thought that every mischance in life was an opportunity to behave well. Every mischance in life was an opportunity to learn something and your duty was not to be submerged in self-pity, but to utilize the terrible blow in a constructive fashion. That is a very good idea.

当然,另一件事是,生活中会有可怕的打击、可怕的打击、不公平的打击。这些都不重要。有些人会康复,有些人则不会。在这方面,我认为伊壁鸠鲁的态度是最好的。他认为,生活中的每一次不幸都是好好做人的机会。生活中的每一次不幸都是学习的机会,你的责任不是沉浸在自怨自艾中,而是以建设性的方式利用可怕的打击。这是一个非常好的想法。

You don’t have a lot of envy, you don’t have a lot of resentment, you don’t overspend your income, you stay cheerful in spite of your troubles, you deal with reliable people and you do what you’re supposed to do. All these simple rules work so well to make your life better.

你没有太多的嫉妒,你没有太多的怨恨,你没有透支你的收入,你在烦恼中保持开朗,你与可靠的人打交道,你做你应该做的事情。所有这些简单的规则都能让你的生活变得更美好。

2019 CNBC interview

With everything boomed up so high and interest rates so low, what's going to happen is the millennial generation is going to have a hell of a time getting rich compared to our generation. The difference between the rich and the poor in the generation that's rising is going to be a lot less. So Bernie has won. He did it by accident, but he won.

随着一切都蓬勃发展,利率如此之低,将会发生的是,与我们这一代人相比,千禧一代的致富之路将会非常艰难。这一代人的贫富差距将大大缩小。所以伯尼赢了。他的胜利是偶然的,但他赢了。
