Fortunate Life

I recently saw this GIF while checking my social media and it catches my attention because aside from the explanation I read in Reddit I can relate this to my life. 1. Short distance road does not mean that it is the fastest route.            There are people who wanted to get rich but they don't want to do sweat and take lessons the right way on how to achieve their goal so they fall into get-rich-quick schemes. They are blinded by their greed to get money quickly and easily so, in the long run, they lost the money that they have.              I too had an experience where I lost all the money that I have invested in a company. I invested because a friend of mine said that it was a good investment and she was earning a lot. I researched the company and did not find any negative feedback online.
