Alibaba MaYun . Risk Management Talk

For a respected, adorable, lovely alumna sister Tracy Tee Chee Yuen's request on translation for below article :

 

Many people lose in life for  life new events' point of views :
The first `invisible; second` despise; Third `can not understand; fourth` too late

MaYun  talk about the insurance , to described him : domineering!
He said: Insurance is a posterior, plan strategically when you are in financial good time , when  in life distress  there is embattled way.

Have money, the money is worthless.
No money, the person is worthless.
To be a valuable person , we must now use our ability and  time,
a portion of the money earned for planning of the uncertainty in future.

You put money in the bank and insurance company, the money is your money,
The difference is: Bank is fat now, lean in the future; Insurance Planning will win in the future!
Let your money now help you work toward a valuable you in future , life insurance can do it.

The earlier we plan, we will have peace in mind earlier . Lets be a man without worries.
With this , we can really flex our muscles in our careers!

Government has a will for all of us
