If you are satisfied with the current situation, there is no future. Heaven and hell learned from the Republic of Nauru.

Hello. This is Kamiyama.

By the way, everyone, do you know the country called the Republic of Nauru?
Originally, there was a country that prospered due to the resources on the island.
Because they earned too much from resources, the islanders could live lavishly without working.
During its prosperous period, it is said that the citizens could live a wealthy life without doing anything.

Of course, there were no taxes, and no utility or hospital fees.
What's more, it seems that those who got married received a house as a gift.
The only people working were foreigners as officials.
In the 1980s, even without doing anything, their GNP was said to be twice that of Japan.
The Republic of Nauru is truly formidable.

However, the resources ran out, and the situation completely changed.

If resources run out, you'd think it's fine to work and earn money, right?
However, the wealthy situation continued for over 30 years, and not a single person knew how to work.
In addition, many people living in the Kingdom of Nauru were in a situation where they had diabetes.
They truly lived a life 100 percent dependent on resources, didn't they?

As a result, the country collapsed.
Both national trust and dignity were lost.
Thus, the Republic of Nauru returned to a self-sufficient way of life.
Currently, about 9,300 people live there, and only 300 people are working, it is said.
Since others don't know how to work, everyone is unemployed.
They truly live a self-sufficient life.

Losing the ability to work and earning easily ultimately leads to ruin.

The Republic of Nauru is truly a lesson, I believe.
Now, in Japan too, there are many people who try to earn easily, aren't there?
Like you can earn just by working 10 minutes a day with a mobile phone.
Or like, let's earn with binary options.

A trend where you can earn without any real ability will end in an instant.
Eventually, it will stop working, you won't make money, and that's the end.
If you intend to earn, you need to seriously face it until you gain real skill.
You should pursue it thoroughly until you become a professional.

What will happen if the situation where you can earn continues without gaining ability?

Eventually, you will follow the path of ruin, just like the Republic of Nauru.
I myself have seen several people who followed a similar path.
Everyone happened to earn, and as a result, without knowing how to use money or how to earn, they went under.
Ultimately, if you don't have the ability to earn on your own, it will end as a short dream.

Whether it's investment, business, a job, or a specialized profession.
Anything is fine, so you should invest your time until you gain real ability.
People who consistently earn stably all have such a desire for improvement.

The other day, a friend of mine departed for Toronto, Canada.
Despite being in a situation where they could live quite comfortably, they invested in themselves and studied abroad.
They are using much of the money they saved for investment to gain their own ability.

I am the same.

Without being satisfied with the current situation, I invest daily to build my skills.
Entrepreneurship, marketing, practice, blogging – whenever I earn money, I invest it in experience.
Because I understand that in the end, only my own abilities will save me.
And so, I steadily move towards the next step.

On the other hand, fools live lavishly.
Not enjoying moderately tasteful entertainment, but extravagantly.
They only consume wastefully and don't invest at all.
That is the classic pattern of downfall.
I hope there are no fools among those who read this blog.

The current situation will collapse someday.
Like the Kingdom of Nauru, a present lived with the thought 'if it's good now' will collapse.
There's no way the future will be an extension of the present for decades.
We are living in an era that changes in the blink of an eye.

Precisely because I want to live securely forever, I invest thoroughly in myself.

If you happen to earn money, you should invest it in yourself.
Look to the future and prepare so that even if the current situation collapses, you can live comfortably.

Even the Republic of Nauru, if it had created businesses while it was profitable…
It would have become one of the world's leading nations.
It might have become a country like present-day Dubai or Singapore.

It's the same for humans.

If you don't prepare for the next step while you still have the means, you will eventually perish.
When you perish, if nothing is left for you, it's meaningless.
After a moment of glory, you might fall to rock bottom and end your life there.
Because in the end, the only thing you can rely on is the experience within yourself.

It seems that many people nowadays are trying to earn money easily.
They are in an overwhelmingly foolish situation, unable to see any reality.

If you earn money easily, the backlash will surely come.

As proof, many wealthy people have disappeared, and even nations perish.
With so many lessons available, it feels like there's an extreme lack of learning.
The catchphrase of people who completely see nothing is always 'earn easily'.

If you succeed in some investment, invest in yourself while you still have the means.
If you succeed in some work, invest in yourself while you still have the means.

Of course, the idea of having money earn more money, or mastering investment further, is also good.
That too involves taking risks and refining and elevating yourself.

Those who are trying to earn money easily now, please keep the example of the Kingdom of Nauru in mind.
All stability, if left as is, will eventually disappear.
All situations will vanish as times change.

Just because you've gained something, you must not be satisfied with that situation.
Always look ahead and invest in your future way of life.
