赚钱并不是最困难的一件事，而如何过有钱人的生活却让人很难习惯。变得富裕，对那些出身贫穷的人来说是一种完全不同的经历，不仅仅是开名车、住别墅或批金戴银的奢华生活。富裕应是生活的一种方式，除了在物质方面以外，富人和穷人在许多方面都存在着不同。

      你不得不做很大的改变,去适应一种富裕的生活。甚至，周围的人对你，也将判若两人。如果你能很好地调节自己，去适应富裕的种种规则的话，你将生活得丰富多彩。然而，对于某些人，以前他们首先要确保维持收支平衡，但现在变得富裕，倒反而感觉有点奇怪了。或许富裕的生活并不像他们理想中的那么舒适。毕竟，理想与现实之间总有一定的距离。

      金钱仅仅是一种象征意义，它本身并无任何价值。但这世界赋予了它强大的影响力，使它变成了人类腐败的根源。如今的世界，比以前更加信奉“有钱能使鬼推磨”这一真理。很多人并不清楚真正想通过金钱来得到什么，却仍把它作为人生奋斗的首要目标。人们一直错误地认为金钱能带来幸福，其实不然，如果你不正确地使用它，它可能会给你带来一生的不幸，或一片混乱的局面。

      你一旦变得富有，周围的一切都将发生改变。有钱人的烦恼之一就是，他们很难确定身边的朋友是真心对待自己，还是仅仅为了钱而和自己交往。你无论到哪里，所有人似乎都对你更好了，起先你会为这前所未有的关注而陶醉不已，但之后就会更加困惑：他们的初衷到底是不是因为金钱。不久之后，你将发现过去你所享受的那种简单的生活已成为历史，你不得不努力使自己去适应一种全新的生活方式、以一种崭新的心态来看待身边的人。

      只要看一眼，就能分辨出富人和穷人。富人在行为举止上，表现得更为轻松自在，充满着自信。他们或许穿着极为简单的服饰，但他们在举手投足间都透露着一种尊贵的气质。就生活方式而言，他们由于不需要在乎生计的问题而显得更无忧无虑。无论所处什么环境，都能处之泰然。为了能自然而然地表现出以上这些富人的特有气质和生活方式，你必须要忘记过去的种种艰难状况，向世人展示一个全新的自己。

     简单地说，就是要使别人感到，你理应享有这些财富，这点十分重要。大多数由贫穷变成富裕的人都很难去接受，他们终于成为有钱人的这一事实。但你不得不克服这一心理，去理解富裕的真正含义。富裕是我们的朋友，而不是敌人。

Making money is not the most difficult thing, but to live with it is a whole lot of getting used to. Becoming rich is a new experience for those who are not born rich and it is not just confined to driving luxury cars, living in a mansion or wearing jewelry. Prosperity is a way of life, and the rich are different from the poor in many ways other than just material symbolization.

There are a lot of changes you have to make to adapt to a life of prosperity. Even the people around you will treat you differently. If you manage to adjust well to the demands of a wealthy environment, you are bound to have a splendid life. However, for some people, being rich can be quite a strange experience compared to their previous lifestyles where their days are spent primarily to make ends meet. Maybe prosperity is not exactly what they imagined it to be. Well, imagination and reality do have their differences.

Money is just a resource, and there is nothing wrong with it. However, since the world accords such importance to it, it has become the tool for many corruptible deeds. It is truer now than ever before that ‘money makes the world go round’. Many people make it the foremost ambition of their lives, without actually knowing what they truly wish to do if they achieve the wealth they so long for. It is quite a misconception that money can buy you happiness, because depending on how you use it, it can even be the cause of much personal misery and turmoil.

When you become wealthy, everything changes around you. One of the predicaments of rich people is that they find it difficult to ascertain if their friends are true to them or their money. Everybody seems to treat you better wherever you go, and while you enjoy the newfound attention initially, you will begin to have your doubts later. Soon, you will discover that the simple life that you used to enjoy is a thing of the past and you have to actually make efforts to accommodate your new lifestyle and acquaintances.

It is possible to tell the rich from the poor just by looking at them. The rich people seem to be more relaxed and confident in their manners. They can even dress in very simple attires, but their gestures and the way they behave will imply their prosperity. In terms of lifestyle, they are more carefree because they do not have to worry about making ends meet. They are comfortable with themselves everywhere they go. In order to assume the mannerisms and lifestyle of the wealthy, you have to forget about the hardships you have experienced in the past and begin to shower yourself with love.

Simply said, it is important to feel that you deserve every penny of the fortune you have amassed. Most people who ascend to prosperity from a hard life find it hard to accept that they are finally rich. But you have to overcome that to really understand the true meaning of prosperity. Prosperity is a friend, not an enemy.
