世上到处都是聪明灵巧、颇具才干、学富五车或极具天赋的人,我们每天都会遇到他们。
几天前,我的汽车出了一点毛病。
我把它开到汽车修理厂,一个年轻的机械工只用了几分钟就把它修好了。
他只是听听发动机的声音就知道毛病出在哪里,这让我感到很吃惊。
但可悲的是,只有非凡的才华是远远不够的。
我时常感到震惊,为何拥有才华的人的收入都少得可怜。
一天,我听说仅仅有不到5%的美国人年收入超过10万美元。
一个对药品贸易相当熟悉的商务顾问曾这样告诉我:很多医生、牙医和按摩师还在为生计而奔波。
在这之前,我一直认为只要他们从校园走出来,就会有大把大把的钞票流入他们的口袋。
“他们距离发大财还少一项技能。”
这是这个商务顾问告诉我的一句话。
它的意思是,大多数人只有通过学习并多掌握一项技能,他们的收入才可能呈指数倍增长。
之前我曾经说过,财商是综合了会计、投资、市场营销和法律方面的能力。
把这四种专业技能综合在一起,以钱生钱就会变得容易一些。
一提到钱,大多数人知道的唯一技巧,就是努力工作。
我于1969年毕业于美国海运学院。
