18."What is success"?Mr.Black asked his 6th grade business class.It was his opening conversation for the first class of the term."Success is riding in a sweet car,watching an 80-inch((英寸) TV,and living in a place with at least twelve rooms."One student answered,earning(博得)laughs from all the students.
Mr.Black smiled,but shook his head."Tom,that is excess(过量).That is not success."
"How about being able to provide for your family?"A blonde girl named Sandy in the front suggested as an answer.
"Now we're getting closer,"Mr.Black smiled,"but try thinking about what you need and what you want."
"Getting everything you want."Tom shouted out an answer again,trying for more laughs.
Mr.Black sighed(叹气)."I believe we've already talked about excess versus(与…比较) success."
"Getting everything you need,but some of what you want?"James,sitting in the back wondered aloud.
"Quite right!"Mr.Black clapped."Success is getting everything you need and some of what you want.The more you get that you want,the more successful you are.You do reach a point where you are living in excess,though."
"What does this have to do with business?"Tom asked.It seemed if it wasn't funny,he wasn't happy.
"Well,Tom,think of it this way:the point of business is to make a living to support your family.Once you have properly seen to (确保) their needs,you can then seen to getting the extras that you want."
"What if I don't have a family?"he continued to be difficult.
"Then you have to provide for yourself,a family of one."
"He has goldfish to think about!"Peter,Tom's friend,shouted out.
"Then he needs to provide for a family of one with a fishbowl."Mr.Black corrected himself.
Tom nodded,satisfied with that answer.
"So in the next nine weeks,we're going to study basic business situations,like having a checking account and understanding credit cards(信用卡)."
Tom rubbed his hands together excitedly."When do we get to start spending?"
"You already are,Tom.You're spending time with us!"Mr.Black laughed."Now,let's see what you guys know about credit cards…"

分析 "什么是成功?"布莱克先生问他六年级商务班.这是他本学期的第一节课的开场对话.
"成功就是开着一辆豪车,看着一个80英寸的电视,住在至少有十二个房间的地方."一个学生回答说,其他所有学生都笑了.
布莱克先生笑着摇了摇头,说道:"汤姆,那是多余,那不是成功."
"为家人提供帮助怎么样呢?"一个叫坐在前排的名叫桑迪的金发女孩建议道.
布莱克先生笑着说道:"现在我们接近答案了,但是试着想想你们想要什么,需要什么."
"得到你想要的一切."汤姆大声喊出答案,为了博得同学们更多的笑声.
布莱克先生叹气道:"我以为我们已经在讨论多余和成功了."
"得到你需要的一切,但又有多少是你们想要的呢?"坐在后排的詹姆斯大声说道.
"完全正确!"布莱克先生拍手称赞道,"成功就是得到你需要的,和获得一些你想要的.你得到你想要的更多,那么你会更成功.虽然你们都生活在一个物质过剩的环境里."
"那这和做生意又有什么关系呢?"汤姆问道.如果这看起来不够有趣,那么他就不开心.
"好的,汤姆,这样想一下:做生意是为了养家糊口.当你一旦保证了家人的需求,然后你就可以去看看那些你想要的额外的事物."
"那如果我没有家庭呢?"汤姆继续刁难道.
"那么你就必须养活你自己,一个人的家庭."
"他得为金鱼考虑."汤姆的朋友皮特大喊道.
"那么他需要养活一个人的家庭和一个鱼缸."布莱克先生纠正道.
汤姆点头同意,对那个答案很是满意.
"所以在接下来的9周,我们即将学习最基本的商业情况,如有一个支票账户和了解信用卡."
汤姆兴奋地搓着他的手说道:"那我们什么时候开始学习消费呢?"
"你们已经开始了,汤姆.你和我们一起度过了时间!"布莱克先生笑着说道,"现在,来看看你们对信用卡了解多少…"
