查尔斯·格雷说:
“谁想当百万富翁?
我不想。
”
安格斯·戴伊顿采访前百万富翁查尔斯·格雷
[第1~3段译文]
许多人一心想成为百万富翁。
他们用一半时间构思致富的办法,用剩下时间来考虑一旦富裕起来要做些什么令人享受的事。
但是,当所有的百万富翁达到目标后他们都找到期盼的幸福了吗?
有些人成为百万富翁后还在继续为钱担忧。
他们拼命工作才获得了财富,他们继续努力以确保永不失去它!
但是也有人把自己的百万资产置于一边,寻求不同的人生幸福。
查尔斯·格雷就是这样一个人。
16年前,查尔斯是一位大学教授,住着有6个卧室的大房子,有两百万美元资产。
现在他住在一个小宿舍房间里,里面只有二手家具。
当然没有迹象表明查尔斯曾是个富人!
房外有个小花园,花园里种着几棵果树。
查尔斯种植了一些蔬菜和花。
衣服和许多其他东西都是从慈善商店买的。

[第4~6段译文]
但是查尔斯喜欢这种改变。
他对放弃富人的生活方式感到高兴。
许多人一无所有而自己却拥有世界上的一切,他厌倦了做这种人。
他作出了把他所有的钱捐赠出去的选择。
他说这给他带来了快乐。
查尔斯说:
“几年前,我曾是个百万富翁,但我意识到世界上还有许许多多忍饥挨饿的人。
”所以他把自己所有的钱都捐给了慈善机构。
当剩下两千美元时,他便在当地贫困街区散发小额纸币。
他觉得自己像是圣诞老人吗?
查尔斯说:
“这么做极有乐趣。
”
查尔斯相信很多人想挣一大笔钱以使自己不再有后顾之忧。
然而,大多数人根本没挣过那么多钱。
查尔斯·格雷决定退出,他发现仅有少量的钱财可以使人自由。
有什么让他怀念的吗?
“没有,我现在更快乐了。
什么也不可能让我再回到富人行列中了——绝不可能。
