Chapter 564 – Chapter 564. Difference
After entering the house, my family sat around the blanket spread over the electric blanket in the living room and started talking.
The house was warm because of the heating.
Inside the warm house, there was even the warmth of the electric blanket in the living room, so it was hard to feel that it was winter indoors.
My parents and I talked a bit more with the fruit that my mother had prepared and placed on a large plate in the middle.
The topic of conversation was that I stopped preparing for the 9th grade civil service exam and started broadcasting, earning more than 300 million won in 9 months, and that I would like to do more broadcasting in the future.
Mom took one Shine Muscat from her plate.
My mom was in a position where she didn’t care much about me being on the air.
But my dad didn’t really touch the fruit.
My father, with a slightly stern face, thought about something carefully as he looked away for a moment and touched his chin for a moment.
My father is a bit conservative from the beginning.
So, from inside the car, I was displeased with the fact that I was broadcasting.
So my father looked a bit embarrassed, but he was silent for a while as if he was thinking about what to say.
In the meantime, Mom continued to drink Shine Muscats with an expression on her face that said nothing was wrong.
My mom likes most fruits besides grapes.
So, does she have good skin?
Her mom says she has good skin, to the point where she can’t look at her age.
After a few moments of silence, my father saw me.
Still, the father’s expression was not good.
“Jinhyeok, do you really have to do that?”
Even though I said that I made more than 300 million won in 9 months, my father thought about it and seemed to say that it was not.
I nodded and looked at my mother as well.
Mom was still eating Shine Muscat.
“Hey, what’s wrong?”
When the mother said that, the father turned his gaze to her mother.
“What do you mean? What do you mean by that?”
My parents seemed to have different opinions.
At this rate, it seemed that there would be some friction between father and mother as well.
“You have to live doing what you want to do.”
“How many people live the way I want to?”
“I make a lot of money, so why? It’s good to live well.”
“Is money everything?”
My father shook his head without backing down.
I thought for a moment.
Well, actually, I meant to tell my parents, not ask their permission.
I also believe that money is not everything.
I think it is important to have free time and to make good memories in that free time.
For me, the field of creators, who have reached a certain level of success and settled down, matches my values.
I want to buy a house too.
Originally, it was 32 years, no, this was a few years ago…
Now, for about 55 years, until right before I die, having to pay off the loan due to the house will be an easy life.
I don’t want to.
I want to make a lot of money and buy a house with a lump sum.
And it’s not impossible either.
I now have a monthly salary of 100 million.
You can buy a house next year or the year after that.
1 billion, 2 billion, this kind of money is not that big for me now.
Modern society is changing like this.
It is said that the economy is difficult, but it is not really difficult, but I wonder if the world is changing in a way where the gap between the rich and the poor is gradually widening.
I wonder if it can be seen that the fact that society is changing like that means that the vested interests of the existing forces are getting stronger.
Looking back on history, before the country was turned upside down in the Joseon Dynasty, there were many people who tried to climb up the ladder of the yangban status, and the order was confused.
I wonder if such a confusion of status order will soon lead to a new system.
However, in the present case, compared to the past, the order of status, which is more systematized and has widening gaps, is gradually becoming stronger, and people hardly climb the ladder and most of them are subordinated to the system.
I could too.
No, I didn’t stop being subordinate, it was the same as playing a gamble that could completely ruin my life.
However, I was a handsome man, and I was able to speak to a certain extent, and above all, the luck that I was able to meet a master called Fine Man from the beginning and rapidly develop broadcasting was a very big factor because of Nam Jae-eun, who I had a crush on.
When I first started broadcasting, I didn’t think about the continuation of such a series of my luck, I just worked hard.
But looking back now, luck played a major role.
I moved forward with great luck, enough to be called a genius.
If I were ruined, time would be wasted time, career break would be career break, and even if I was scolded by my parents, I would have nothing to say.
However, if 30,000 people try, only 300 people succeed and 99% fail, and I am ranked at the top.
So, if I grow up like this, even if I work for 5 or 6 years and play for the rest of my life, compared to the very ordinary side, I can earn the money I need to collect by only working for 3 to 4 generations.
Also, you can buy a house.
In this country where relative poverty, if not absolute poverty, is too serious to raise a family with the world’s lowest fertility rate, not the OECD level, I have been able to do that great marriage.
So I was going to go my own way, even if my father was against it.
“Does Dad want me to start preparing for civil service again?”
When I addressed my parents, I used a mix of father and mother or father and mother.
My parents didn’t even care about that.
In response to my question, my father still spoke in a slightly lower tone than usual.
“What you say you’re doing right now, you don’t know when it will go bankrupt. You have to do a stable job to get private insurance. You have to work hard to earn money.”
To my father’s words about private insurance, I answered comfortably.
“For things like the national pension, I can pay it in full with a lump sum payment that I will pay for the rest of my life with the money I earn a month.”
Saying that, I held out the bankbook I had brought before my father.
“Um…”
My father, who checked my bank account at a glance, was speechless.
Originally, there is something like that.
Even between family members, there is usually a power gradient.
For example, if the father is the head of the household and earns a lot of money, the father’s power is strong and the mother is often patient.
Conversely, if the father is the head of the household and does not earn a lot of money, the mother’s power often increases.
Even between parents and children, when parents treat their children, they may not be more rude to their more successful children.
That’s how I showed my father that I’m not in an easy position to be ignored.
Money.
That’s the surest indicator.
People can lie, but numbers are not.
A job that implies the level of power that the letter ‘four’ enters, or a job that is so difficult to earn a few million won a month, and money that requires enduring all sorts of humiliation, these two can be seen as very clear indicators.
But my father still opened his eyes wide and spoke to me.
“Do you think you can earn like this forever? You might be able to earn like this right now, but you don’t know later. But, try becoming a civil servant. You become a civil servant and become a married couple, eh? Each piece comes out for free. Can’t you live a stable life?”
“So that pension, I work for a month, pay it in full for the rest of my life, and I can get a few more private insurance, Dad.”
“Where is the guarantee that you can continue to earn like this?”
“This side will rather develop in the future.”
“Anyway, civil servants are the best.”
“I saw a statistic that if you work as a civil servant for the rest of your life, you will earn 700 million units. Then, if I complete 700 million won in 4 months and show it to my father, can I not have to work for the rest of my life?”
At my words, my father was silent again for a while.
“Is that what you want to do?”
“Fun.”
“Then, see if it really goes as you said, bring it back in four months. 700 million won. Then I will believe you.”
The conversation with my father ended like that.
At my current growth rate, it will exceed 700 million.
I will collect that much in just four months, not until I reach retirement age, and I will have more.
The less money you make, the worse it is.
When essential money is withdrawn, it cannot be collected.
On the other hand, the more money you earn, the better.
The proportion of essential money going out is small, so the money is large.
For example, even if you earn the same 10 million won, if you earn 10 million won a year, you may have 0 won left over for living expenses.
However, if you earn 10 million won a day, you can have more than 9.9 million won left over for living expenses.
This will make a huge difference in the long run, and in the end it will make rich and poor.
After talking with my father more calmly than I thought, I ate fruit, showered, and went to sleep.
My father was against it right away, but he said he would believe me if I showed results, so he would have been more correct to see that the conversation worked.
And before I went to bed, I had a little more talk with my mother, and she was in the position that it was okay for my mother to do whatever I wanted.
And she put my health first, just like my mother always does.
I talked with my parents at my hometown like that, and the next day I returned to my work.
