高三英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

Someone sent me an email urging me to acquire a lot more resources,suggesting could do so much more good if I had an 8 or 9 figure net income of 6 like I’ve been doing for years.He claimed to have acquired a great deal of wealth himself and found it highly beneficial to fueling his path with a heart.

As I consider his suggestion,I find myself not having much clarity(清晰的思维)as to what I'd do with I million or 10 million more money flowing through my life.I put so much attention on creativity,fulfillment,exploration,relationships,etc.that I find it difficult to intelligently imagine how more financial resources could provide extra fuel for that,except in small ways or in ways that aren’t particularly meaningful to me.

Lately I've been considering what it would be like to deliberately reduce my income for a while and see if I could live on much less，just for the experience.What if I capped my net personal income at $10,000 per year,for instance? That isn’t such a big deal to me, though, since I already went through a period of low income like that during the 1990s,and I learned that I could still do what I love regardless of income.

I've never worked in a business environment-the only job I've ever hadwas working for $6/hour in a video game store while I was in college. So I’ve never seen how larger operations allocate resources. That's probably why I haven’t pushed myself to acquire more. As I mentioned in my book.Money and Your Path With a Heart，my main financial goal in life was to make money irrelevant in　 my life.

I’m not interested in building an empire.What interests me is exploring personal growth and sharing what I learn along the way. In some ways I feel that acquiring and acquiring and allocating more resources could become a big distraction. I’m already doing what I want to be doing,so why rick distracting myself to acquire more resources,especially when I lack the idea about how I should treat such resources? I like having freedom and flexibility，and I don't really see how more resources would meaningfully improve that.

Someone sent me an email urging me to acquire a lot more resources, suggesting that I could do so much more good if I had an 8 or 9figure net income (净收入) instead of 6 like I’ve been doing for years.
