Today can called a new rebirth for me as these past few months, I started to educate myself about money and how can I manage money better and benefit myself and people around me. It feels great to receive a decent salary from my own business. Using my talent and skills to bring me out of the situation.
Looking back past year, who on earth would be so insensible to give a stranger $22,000 just because he is in need of money? I truly learned my mistakes, there are truly scammers, liars and cheaters in this world, who can tell you sad stories to con you in believing their sad stories. Although I still have $12,000 to return to my father and sister, I am confident that I am able to deliver my promise for the next year and I will be debt free!
I can't blame anyone other than myself for being so naive and too trusting, thinking that it is real story. But I also learned to forgive myself and making sure that I will not be a victim any more.
Through this drama, I learn that how money is important to our daily life and we should respect money. Money can be beneficial to our needs, help the genuine charity organisations and give our love ones better living life. I have also put aside money for gratification to reward myself for the hardwork that I have contributed, to acknowledge and pamper myself and my family.
Why people lie and cheat?
I guess due to their poor upbringing, they have bad experiences and wanted to revenge or they found the short term benefits of conning people. These will not last and eventually they lost themselves. I do hope that one day, they will repent and walk back the right path. May they be enlighten.
There is such thing as karma, whatever these people do, they need to pay back whatever they have done. I may not have the opportunity to see it. It doesn't matter to me as I have learned my lesson and move on.
