亨利·福特:我的生活与工作·补录 428

亨利·福特《我的生活与工作》· My Life and Work · 领导

There are two fools in this world. One is the millionaire who thinks that by hoarding money he can somehow accumulate real power, and the other is the penniless reformer who thinks that if only he can take the money from one class and give it to another, all the world's ills will be cured. They are both on the wrong track. They might as well try to corner all the checkers or all the dominoes of the world under the delusion that they are thereby cornering great quantities of skill. Some of the most successful money-makers of our times have never added one pennyworth to the wealth of men. Does a card player add to the wealth of the world?

白话

世上有两种傻瓜:一种是有钱人,以为囤积金钱就能积累真正的权力;另一种是一贫如洗的改革者,以为只要把富人的钱拿过来分给穷人,一切社会弊病就都治好了。两人都走错了路。这就像想把全世界的跳棋或多米诺骨牌都垄断下来,以为这样就能垄断高超的棋艺。我们时代一些最成功的赚钱者,从未给人类财富增加一分一毫。一个打牌的人会增加世界的财富吗?关键不在钱在谁手里,而在钱是否被用来创造真实价值。

上下文

福特批评两种极端:守财奴式的富豪和简单均贫富的改革者,认为二者都误解了财富的本质。

今日一问

你更接近哪种思维:囤积资源求安全感,还是指望重新分配解决一切?如何转向创造价值?
