In recent years, I have spent a large part of my money on learning, because I feel that there is always a shortcut to take, there is always a secret to making money, so I have become someone else’s leek countless times.
The purpose of spending money to study is to make money, but it doesn’t seem that money is earned just because of money spent studying. There is always an illusion that you can earn more than 10,000 a month by taking a certain course, but most people can’t do it.
Recently I have been researching the China Video Partner Program, which is an activity done by the three platforms of Douyin Xigua Toutiao, and a business that makes money by video playback.
Sounds easy, but it’s more difficult to do. I made it myself for more than 2 months, and the total income was only more than 100 yuan. I know the reason is that my video has no slots and is not attractive enough, so the playback volume is relatively low.
I understand that my knowledge reserve is not enough, so I have been looking for various courses to study recently, and I have studied several sets of courses, but I still can’t do it.
I bought most of these courses online, that is, I spent a few dollars to buy them. They are really good, and they are in many details. Things, and there are practical tutorials, it feels great value.
In the middle, I have also encountered many knowledge anchors who sell courses on Douyin, and the prices are not cheap. The most expensive is 19800, and the cheapest is 888, but yesterday Suddenly I got a 199, and I saw that his account was doing well, and he was more realistic.
So I watched it for a while in his live broadcast room, and I thought it was pretty good. His course is set at 999 yuan, and he will kill 199 in a limited time. He only gives a few places. I thought that 199 is not expensive, and I will see if I can learn something, so I spent 199 to buy the class.
After listening to the course content, I found out that it was all basic knowledge, which I already knew about the course I studied for so long. I felt cheated in an instant, and I asked the blogger. He said that this is a basic course and an advanced course, and the price is 4980.
After listening to this, I was really angry. When I sold the course, I didn’t say it was a basic course. If you say that I won’t buy the basic course, I will buy it now. Can’t go back.
This is a typical case of being deceived, and I blame myself for placing an order without asking clearly. It’s really not like the sky, it’s different.
Because I spent a lot of money to study in the past few years, it has not had much effect, so I have been very cautious in the past two years, and I rarely pay for study.
This time I couldn’t hold back, and I was cut with leeks. But this can only blame myself for being too greedy, always thinking that there are shortcuts, always thinking that there are secrets to making money, but in fact, I have studied the basic knowledge carefully, and the results will not be too bad.
Making money must be achieved when various factors such as cognition, ability, and execution are achieved, and it is possible to make money. Otherwise, if you look for shortcuts every day, you will eventually become someone else’s leek.
