人人都說金錢不是萬能的，可離開了錢，就等于放棄了生命。

Everyone says that money is not everything, but to leave money is to give up life.

名、利，這兩個詞對我們來說并不陌生。也許你會聯(lián)想到別的東西，但給我的第一聯(lián)想就是金錢。名、利、錢是緊緊聯(lián)系在一起的。一個人有了名會干什么事，無非是去爭取更多的利，而利是實實確確的錢或能用錢換取的物質(zhì)。

Name and interest are not new to us. Maybe you think of something else, but the first thing I think of is money. Name, profit and money are closely linked. What can a person do when he is famous is nothing more than to strive for more profits, which are real money or materials that can be exchanged with money.

權(quán)勢是每一個人都想要占有的，有了權(quán)就有了錢，當(dāng)官的不都是這樣想的嗎？人們總是收授賄賂，吃公款喝公款，用的全是人民政府的錢。這樣的人大部分都是共產(chǎn)黨。公款吃喝豈能休已？

Power is what everyone wants to possess. When they have power, they have money. Don't all officials think that way? People always accept bribes, eat public money and drink public money, all of which is the money of the people's government. Most of such people are communists. Can public money be used for food and drink?

錢的用處很多，要想生活，需要經(jīng)濟(jì)條件和物質(zhì)條件，這些都是用錢來衡量的，錢多點兒，會有汽車、有別墅、有自己的企業(yè)；錢少點兒，僅僅是房子、自行車和給別人打工。

Money has many uses. To live, we need economic and material conditions, which are measured by money. If we have more money, we will have cars, villas and our own enterprises. If we have less money, we will only have houses, bicycles and work for others.

錢少的人，需要錢來維持生活；錢多的人，想要占有更多的錢，有更豪華的生活。可以說，金錢能買到一切?？墒怯腥苏f，錢不能買到感情。我想他們錯了，有些人為了錢，不惜犧牲親情、友情、愛情。我有錢，可沒有親情，你很窮，需要錢，我可以從你那兒得到親情；我有錢，我沒有朋友，你很窮，需要錢，我可以從你那兒得到友情；我有錢，沒有愛情，你很窮，需要錢，我可以從你那兒得到愛情。也許你會得到大量的遺產(chǎn)，也許你會得到很多朋友贈送的錢，還有一份好的工作，也許你會得到豪宅、轎車。這些人大有人在。

People with less money need money to live; people with more money want to have more money and have a more luxurious life. It can be said that money can buy everything. But some people say that money can't buy affection. I think they are wrong. Some people are willing to sacrifice family, friendship and love for money. I have money, but no affection. You are poor and need money. I can get affection from you. I have money, but I have no friends. You are poor and need money. I can get friendship from you. I have money and no love. You are poor and need money. I can get love from you. Maybe you will get a lot of heritage, maybe you will get a lot of money from friends, and a good job, maybe you will get a mansion, a car. These people are here.

在這個時代，金錢就是萬能的。

In this era, money is everything.
