In China, there is a phenomenon: when people around you are very well-off, they often were the most disobedient and mischievous kids when they were young. The difference behind this is not about being obedient or disobedient; it’s a deeper ability—subjectivity, meaning self-determination. A person who lacks subjectivity, even if they learn money-making skills, will find it hard to truly create wealth, because wealth is not fundamentally about acquiring resources. It is about proactively spotting problems, creating value, and taking responsibility for the results. Restoring one’s ability to build wealth is not about learning more ways to make money, but about rebuilding a person’s capacity to choose, to take risks, and to influence the world.
