He spends a lot of money at once and he doesn't care(一擲千金)
There was a poet in the Tang Dynasty in
China. His name is (Wu Xiangzhi).
He wrote a poem about a poor young man who
became extravagant and wasteful when he came into contact with some rich
friends.
The gist of this poem is as follows.
Look at that young man, who was temporarily
called by the king to hunt with him.
He accepted the rich gifts of money from
the king.
He thus got to know many nobles who came to
hunt with the king.
He completely forgot that his family was
poor and that his family lived in hardship.
The way he spends his money is like those
rich people, he squanders all his money at once and doesn't care.
This idiom means that a person spends a lot
of money at a time and he doesn't care.
Dear friends, what are your feelings or
thoughts after listening to this story?
If you had an unexpectedly large amount of
money, what would you use it for? What was the single largest amount of money
spent in your life for what?
I hope this story will give you something
new to gain.
一擲千金(He spends a lot of money at once and
he doesn't care)
中國的唐王朝時代有一個詩人。他的名字是(吳象之)。
他寫過一首詩，描寫一個貧窮的年輕人接觸了一些有錢的朋友，變得奢侈與浪費。
這首詩的大意如下。
你看那一位年輕人，他被國王臨時徵召來一起打獵。
他接受了國王豐富的金錢餽贈。
他因此認識了許多與國王一起來打獵的貴族們。
他完全忘記他的家裡很窮，他的家人生活困苦。
他花錢的方式就像那些有錢的人們，他一次把所有的金錢都揮霍掉而不以為意。
這句成語的意思是一個人一次就花非常多的錢而且他不以為意。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的感受或有怎樣的想法呢。
你如果有一筆意外的大筆金錢你會怎樣使用呢?這一生中中單次花過最大筆錢是為了什麼事情呢?
我希望這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
