Great career is waiting for you.

(Growth needs motivation)

Claude Henri de Rouvroy was born in a noble family and lived comfortably since childhood. However, since his youth, he stood up ambitiously and determined to use knowledge to benefit mankind. /kloc-when he was 0/5 years old, he told his family to wake himself up every morning with such words: "Claude, get up, great things are waiting for you."

Crazy genius Qian Zhongshu

(the growth path of different customs)

1929, when Tsinghua University Foreign Languages Department enrolled students, a news broke out. A candidate who scored 15 in the math test and should have been returned was admitted as an exception. This candidate is Qian Zhongshu. He did badly in the math exam, but he was excellent in English and Chinese, and he got full marks in English. The head teacher was reluctant to leave and afraid to take it, so he reported it to the principal, Luo Jialun. After reading the examination paper, President Luo immediately decided: This is a wizard, and he is exceptional in admission. As soon as he entered Tsinghua, Qian Zhongshu began to set one record after another: the number of books read, the number of articles published, the number of test scores and the number of crazy talk ... He loved reading, so the collection of Tsinghua Library was full of "money criticism".

In Tsinghua, he is also famous for finding fault with professors and scholars. 1932, Zhou Zuoren, a famous professor in Peking University, published his monograph The Origin of New Literature in China. The book was very popular as soon as it was published. Qian Zhongshu, however, ignored Zhou's embarrassment, picked out many mistakes and sorted out the book.

Sima Changfeng said in China's New Literature History that he was one of the two "lunatics" in China's modern literature history. Qian Zhongshu is crazy, crazy in talent, crazy in Wang Yang, quite like an ancient Zhuang Sheng. His cousin once said that Qian Zhongshu was crazy when he was a teenager. He didn't want to praise others since he was a child. Instead, he criticized, satirized and teased many people. He is mean and witty, and his temper has never changed. Some of the people he criticized were his classmates and friends, some were his teachers and predecessors, such as Zhu Ziqing, Zhou Zuoren, Feng Youlan, Zhao Wanli and Wu Mi. When the university was about to graduate, Tsinghua asked him to continue his master's degree in western literature. He said: "No professor in Tsinghua is qualified to be a mentor of money!"

Qian Zhongshu has a famous saying: "Generally speaking, learning is something that two or three innocent people discuss and practice in the old house in the wild, and the outstanding learning in the market will become popular learning." It is precisely because he wants to avoid vulgarity and do real learning that he shows a completely different personality and behavior from others. He is recognized by Chinese and foreign journalists as one of the most difficult celebrities in contemporary China. Not only journalists, but also celebrities from all walks of life stay away from him. "People say I'm crazy and don't know what I really am", which is Qian Zhongshu's evaluation of himself.

Reagan stood on his own two feet

(Optimistic growth, tenacious self-reliance)

Although Reagan lived in poverty in his childhood, he never felt depressed. His open-minded and optimistic nature convinced him that he lived in the happiest world. It is based on this optimistic personality that he always devotes himself energetically to various activities, such as taking risks, playing ball, swimming and performing. In order to complete his studies, Reagan helped his parents share their worries. He used his spare time to do odd jobs on the construction site, moving bricks, pushing earth and transporting cement, often for 10 hours. Chew a piece of dry bread when you are hungry and drink a few mouthfuls of tap water when you are thirsty. In this way, Reagan not only solved the tuition of the whole middle school period by himself, but also saved 400 dollars to enter the university.

According to British newspapers, John Malone, the chairman of Telecoms, the largest cable TV company in the United States, will donate more than half of his $6,543.85 billion legacy to charity. He believes: "Too much property will destroy children, not help them grow up."

1997, Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, announced that he would not leave too much legacy to his newborn daughter Jennifer for the same reason as Malone.

Warren Buffett, the second richest man in the United States, is famous for being stingy with his three children. He said that they would be lucky if they could get a penny from him after his death. He warned the children: "As long as I vote for the right mother, I can have food and clothing, which has damaged the concept of fairness in my heart."

Peter Desavari, a British real estate developer, announced in 1997 that after his death, his five daughters could not share his 2400 property.

After taking office, President Bush announced tax cuts, including the abolition of the federal inheritance tax. This is certainly good news for the richest people who own most of America's wealth. But interestingly, there are 120 rich people who jointly signed a business letter against the government's abolition of inheritance tax. The Wall Street Journal also published a survey showing that even if the inheritance tax is abolished in the United States, 50% of the wealthy Americans intend to donate at least half of their property to the society, leaving only a part of their property to future generations. The rich who advertised in The New York Times and called on the government not to abolish the inheritance tax include Bill Gates' father William Sr, Buffett, Soros and financial giant Rockefeller. Old William wrote in the petition that the abolition of inheritance tax will make the children of American millionaires and billionaires get something for nothing, make the rich always rich and the poor always poor, which will hurt poor families. Buffett also said: "It is a big mistake and extremely stupid to cancel the inheritance tax. Abolishing the inheritance tax will produce an aristocratic class. "
