当今社会打造的是一个浮华耀眼的环境，目所能及非财富就是声名。所以人们的追求也不同以往，不是想着一夜暴富就是一夜成名，至于其手段和方法则有待考证了。是我们的时代造就了这样一代又一代如此不务实的人，还是我们的一代又一代人成就着这个如此浮躁的社会？也许这个“时代”和“个人”的问题，就如同现在的“追星现象”一般，究竟谁是谁的看客，还有待一个合理的解释。~ 谢德金 A few info related to Korean entertainment industry and the use of Apps: 成龍籌備韓團進軍韓國 韓流吹襲，港星成龍決定親自籌備偶像團體進軍南韓市場。此新團為男子團體，一共有五名成員 ─ 四名韓國人、一名中國人，團體名稱以成龍自己的名字 (Jackie Chen) 為靈感，將團體取名為 JJ Cece (JJCC)，預計九月出道。 http://kpopn.com/2012/05/18/123423/ First Day of Super Junior’s ‘Super Show 4′ Concert at Tokyo Dome draws in 50,000 fans On May 12th, 50,000 ELF‘s witnessed the first of Super Junior‘s two day ‘Super Show 4‘ performances at the prestigious Tokyo Dome.

If we would just be honest with our high school students ahead of time, it would save many of them a whole lot of pain later. Below are some scattered notes somehow related to the conventional education system. The typical high school student is simply told to get into the "best school" that he or she can and to take out whatever loans are "necessary" to pay for that education. Our high school students are assured that those student loans will be paid back easily once they get "good jobs" following graduation.

This is not financial education. This is financial training, the same training that Pavlov used on his dogs and that...
