Money is Evil


money can buy a house, but not a home.

money can buy a watch, but not time.

money can buy a bed, but not sleep.

money can buy a book, but not knowledge.

money can buy a medicine, but not good health.

money can buy a position, but not respect.

money can buy blood, but not life.

money can buy sex, but not love.


以上初初讀時頗覺得很精警，又有意義，言之有物，甚有道理。


但若果反轉來看，就發覺有幾項，值得反復思量。


例如：money can buy a house, but not a home.
金錢可以購買一間屋，但不可以買到一個家。


我確確實實可以告訴你，一個家肯定一定不能賣出去，換回金錢。但一間屋只要不是殘破不堪，是可以賣得一點金錢應急的，就算唔賣，到銀行做按揭，起碼都借到一筆小貸款備用。


likewise，money can buy a watch, but not time.
金錢可以購買一隻手錶，但不可買到時間。


若果你隻是金銀潤、棺材仔、真金勞力士、阿米加、帕德菲臘、康詩丹頓、幾時攞去當鋪 pawnshop 去舉，都可以應急，攞返幾棟嘢。縱有 endless idle Time 都唔會換到錢嘅！


還有，還有，money can buy sex, but not love.
金錢可以買到性歡愉，但買不到真愛。


你縱有一萬噸好真的愛，可不可以換到性歡愉呢？更可以說真愛可以一毛錢也不值！


世事是沒有絕對永恒相對的，由聖誕節十二月廿五日，到新曆新年一月一日，是七天時間，但由新曆新年到聖誕節，卻是整整三百多天，要十一個月另廿四天（閏年二十五天），絕對不是相對的。


Money is Evil， however，without money it is worst than evil， you will do many evil to exchange for money.
金錢是萬惡的，但在沒有錢時，你就發窮惡，會做出更惡的事去搵錢！
