Over the past few years, there has been a big increase in the number of people sharing information online. In this article, we will learn about some positive reasons for people to share information online.

94% of those surveyed by The New York Times said they put a lot of thought into how the content they are sharing will be beneficial to others. We often share information with our friends in the office or at home to educate, entertain, or pleasantly surprise them. This is also true while sharing information online. If you look at the Facebook wall posts of your friends, you will realize that most of their updates are usually famous quotes(引述), entertaining videos, humorous images, funny jokes, etc.

A lot of people share information online to picture their true self to the outside world. Some people, especially those who are shy and not comfortable talking about their areas of interest in the presence of others, find it extremely convenient to share that information online with others.

According to the study, 78% of the people said they shared information online because it helps them develop better relationships. Today, people are so busy that they do not have the time to meet each other personally. A lot of people now “meet” each other online, rather than in places like restaurants and pubs.

Lastly, when we share our thoughts online, we are actively communicating with a large number of people who are a part of the World Wide Web. Sharing information will affect the viewpoint of others, or add to their understanding about the world.

Wealth is what you accumulate(累积), not what you spend. If you make $1 million a year and spend $1 million, you’re not getting wealthier, you’re just living high.

The most successful accumulators of wealth spend less than they can afford on houses, cars,vacations and entertainment. Why? Because these things offer little or no return.The wealthy would rather put their money into investments(投资) or their businesses. It’s an attitude.

Millionaires understand that when you buy an expensive house, you buy an expensive life-style too.Your property taxes(财产税), insurance, and the prices of nearby services tend to be higher.

The rich man’s attitude can also be seen in his car. Many drive old cars. Sam Walton, billionaire founder of the Wal-Mart Store, Inc, drove a pickup truck.

Most millionaires measure success by net worth(净值),not income. Instead of taking their money home, they put as much as they can into their businesses.Why? Because the government doesn’t tax wealth; it taxes income you bring home for consumption(消费).

The person who piles up net worth fastest tends to put every dollar he can into investments, not consumption.

The best wealth-builders pay careful attention to their money and seek professional advice.

The self-made rich develop clear goals for their money.They may wish to retire early,or they may want to leave something to their children.The goals vary,but two things are consistent:they have a goal in mind-- the amount they want to save by age50, perhaps--and they work unceasingly(不断地)toward that goal.

One thing may surprise you. If you make wealth---not just income--your goal,the expensive house you’ve been dreaming about won’t seem so attractive.You’ll have the attitude.
