"Mike says you want to learn to make money? Is that correct, Robert?" “迈克说你们想学赚钱,对吗,罗伯特?” I nodded my head quickly, but with a little intimidation. He had a lot of power behind his words and smile. 我快速地点点头,心里有点儿忐忑,在他的微笑和话语后面似乎隐藏着一股很强的力量。 "OK, here's my offer. I'll teach you, but I won't do it classroom-style. You work for me, I'll teach you. You don't work for me, I won't teach you. I can teach you faster if you work, and I'm wasting my time if you just want to sit and listen, like you do in school. That's my offer. Take it or leave it." “好,这就是我的建议:由我来教你们赚钱,但我不会像在教室里教学生那样教你们,你们得为我工作,否则我就不教。因为通过工作我可以更快地教会你们,如果你们只想坐着听讲,就像在学校里那样的话,那我就是在浪费时间了。怎么样?小伙子们,这就是我的建议,你们可以接受也可以拒绝”。 "Ah... may I ask a question first?" I asked. “嗯……我可以先问个问题吗?”我问。 "No. Take it or leave it. I've got too much work to do to waste my time. If you can't make up you mind decisively, then you'll never learn to make money anyway. Opportunities come and go. Being able to know when to make quick decisions is an important skill. You have an opportunity that you asked for. School is beginning or it's over in ten seconds," Mike's dad said with a teasing smile. |
