in a bust, maybe 80% people will go bankrupt and be kicked
out of the game. Sometimes it's smart to stay out for
a while. And also it depends on what role you want to
play to stay in the game.
Good kids are indoctrinated at a young age to the idea that
working hard and create things will do yourself good. I
claim that it's all about putting yourself in the best
position to extract sustainable long-term profit.
Of course most people who are in this game are better
off than they were previously, but there is a huge
difference between a capitalist pampered by cheap
bank credits and seven concubines, versus a
peasant who consider himself lucky finding a 1000 Yuan
a month menial job.
