This is really an era of the middle class returning to poverty (reflections from today's gathering)

One of my friends today is the one I just met in 20 years. He had several companies of his own, with a net profit of 500,000 yuan per month. Then he slowly went downhill in the past few years. Now he has nothing, and he still owes the bank 10 million yuan. His house is about to be auctioned off.

Another friend used to speculate in real estate. At his peak, he had 8 houses, several million in cash, and several hot pot restaurants. Then in the past two years, the house price fell, and all of them were smashed in his hands. The house was difficult to sell at a loss. The hot pot restaurant was not doing well and had already closed. Now he is preparing to go bankrupt.

Another friend who used to work in a big company has been unemployed for a year. He was bored and invested all his money in the stock market. Now he has lost all his money and is slowly going into a state of slacking.

As for friends in the currency circle, they are sometimes good and sometimes bad. They are full of confidence and sometimes dejected.

On the contrary, those friends around me who have been working steadily, not investing, not starting a business, are now living the best. Their families are happy, they prepare small surprises for their wives from time to time, and take their families on trips once or twice a year.
