Is it really bad to live a tough life? Let’s see the example of two men. This story is real but with some modifications. Let’s call the first man John and the second one Will. John was that kind of man born in the low society that had to struggle to eat and expected very little of life. Will on the other hand sleept on a bed made of money. both of them were very happy kids. In school both had similar results but it was only in the adult life that they destiny or fate or whatever your belief is that started to act and life suddenly changed for all. Will’s parents were long gone and his industry was almost ending. Normal cameras were losing all the market share for the new digital cameras. What was a mine of gold ten years ago was selling zero, exactly zero cameras sold in the latest three months. Panic all over the company. Will tried to save the company with the best equipment his money could buy but there is no cure or magic for old technology and markets that need to become extinct such as analog cameras and now Will had no money and the company closed doors. He started to live like a poor man feeling on his skin all the pain the poor people feel. He never had to lift a finger in his entire life and what seemed a never ending heaven turned upside down overnight. Will fought with all his might and now he is again a super successful multi millionaire business man because he learned the hard way how tough life is for 99% of the people. He got his gold crown back.

John on the other hand reached the top much faster than Will did. He always knew he had nothing to lose and the only way to get to the top was to forget about comfort and to give all he could everyday. He had to start from scratch and reach the top just by being the best in his industry with the latest advances he could invest in always working all the time, living for his work, like a monk who lives for the monastery. John is now a multi millionaire and very unlikely to lose his money because he has two hot feet but a frozen mind inside his brain.

Both are still friends today, both enjoy their childhood memories, their present activities and a dream future.

This story is true and I know these two people. Only the names were changed, the industry, the story is true.
