Money, this thing.

It can sustain people, but it can also eat people. And it does so especially ruthlessly.

Most people only see those scenes where, after getting rich, they stand tall and speak confidently. But they don't see the truth behind many others being bitten back by money—that kind of scene where they crash on the spot and their true nature is exposed overnight.

Money is like a mirror that reveals your true self, exactly as it is. If you are not upright at your core, once money is in your hands, your true nature will immediately be exposed. This is not an alarmist statement; the stories of those who suddenly become wealthy in the crypto world are the best lessons.

When you have no money, people tend to be restrained. Not because they don't want to act recklessly or be wild, but because they simply don't have the qualification. Once their pockets are full, that facade of restraint begins to collapse. They become arrogant, reckless, and floating. It’s as if the whole world must revolve around them, and all rules should bow to them.

This is the most significant test of human nature. Wealth is never the end goal; rather, it is a mirror—reflecting your true self. Those who can maintain their bottom line in the face of huge profits truly understand the weight of money.
