A few days ago, I moved for a friend, and he moved into a school district house, the house is not big and old, but the owner's face is full of happiness. After moving, he sighed at me, pointed to the child next to him and said, "The road has been paved for him, and it will be up to this kid to do it later." In fact, they don't live in the house, they just move some old furniture and plan to rent it out soon.
But from now on, the identity of the owner has one more label: owning a school district house.
Spring is coming, and it is the peak season for college students to graduate from the job, including many returnees, although the unemployment after graduation is somewhat serious, but it is an indisputable fact that it is difficult to find a job, on the contrary, some blue-collar jobs are very popular. Therefore, everyone lamented that academic qualifications are becoming less and less valuable.
Why is education not valuable, but school district housing worth?
Buying a school district house is buying a kind of hope. Especially for ordinary people and middle-class families, they hope to provide a good educational environment for their children, and squeeze into the narrower and narrower gap in the increasingly solidified social class, so as to climb into the upward channel. Of course, the school district itself is real estate, and in the current process of urbanization, the real estate itself is constantly increasing in value.
The scarcity of school district housing reflects the scarcity of high-quality educational resources, and this scarcity will inevitably lead to social competition, thereby pushing up the school district housing. The "residential" attribute of the school district house has evolved into the "ferry ticket" attribute. Although this ticket may not take you to the other side of the pyramid of life, it is at least a kind of hope, and people sometimes live for hope.
Academic qualifications are the "manual" of a person's education, which shows where you have studied in college, what major you have studied, and what education you have received, and you are more likely to be able to exert your talents in future work. Perhaps, this is one of the results of the search for monetization of early education investments.
However, in the past ten years, the expansion of colleges and universities and the market-oriented operation have led to the streets full of college students and graduate students, making the college diploma gradually lose its role in identification. A university diploma can no longer provide the society with screened talents, and related, background college students crowd out good positions, making it more difficult for college students with real talents to get opportunities. (Of course, there are also students with relationships and backgrounds who are really talented and learned, and their lives are cheated, which is another matter).
On the other hand, the lack of academic qualifications has led to a large number of training institutions in the society to further distinguish these vaguely labeled college students, and attach various labels to facilitate the identification and selection of employers. Therefore, graduates are always busy with various certificates and always seem to be afraid of leaving something behind.
If you don't have real talent, and lack of background and connections, it is indeed difficult to reflect the value of the paper diploma.
The school district real estate produces academic qualifications, but the academic qualifications are not only issued by the school district real estate, but more academic qualifications are issued by non-school district real estate! Therefore, whether education is worth money or not, and whether the school district house is worth anything are two different things. It can only be said that school district housing is more likely to produce good academic qualifications and good education, and thus more likely to succeed.
The proposition of this proposition is actually a portrayal of the insecurity of middle-class families about the future and the powerlessness of ordinary people against reality.

Ancient jade is a general name for ancient beautiful stones, which has the advantages of delicate texture, moist color, bright and smooth, no ice in winter, and no excitement in summer. Ancient jade is disconnected. Generally speaking, jade before the Han Dynasty is called Gaogu jade, from the Han Dynasty to the Tang and Song dynasties, it is medieval jade, and jade from the Tang and Song dynasties to the Qing Dynasty is called ancient jade.
Compared with modern jade, the beauty of ancient jade lies not only in the natural beauty of its material, but also in the beauty of its shape, carving and inner beauty. Roughly speaking, the beauty of quality, shape, color, and craftsmanship can be regarded as different aspects of the beauty of ancient jade.
In recent years, the ancient jade market has been sluggish, and many museums and collectors in China dare not collect ancient jade, mainly because the level of identification is limited, resulting in a lot of ancient jade being ignored. In addition, the method of identifying counterfeits is outdated and conservative, and it cannot surpass the speed of renovation of counterfeiting methods. Especially in recent years, the level of imitation of ancient jade has been continuously improved, and the theory of identifying ancient jade has broken through the predecessors, which has brought new problems to the identification of counterfeits.
Jade was both a spiritual and a material wealth in ancient society. Jade's unique beautiful luster and warm inner quality make it a supernatural object endowed with humanistic beauty. Many of the early jade artifacts were ritual vessels, which carried the beliefs of the people at that time, communicated with heaven and earth, and were also a symbol of identity, with rich cultural connotations.
The sage Confucius once said, "A gentleman is more virtuous than jade", which links people's good character with the warm and lustrous inner quality of jade.
For investors, how can they better identify the authenticity of ancient jade and minimize losses? Experts tell us that we should proceed from objective reality, conduct scientific research on the different characteristics of imitations, go deep into the market, constantly summarize practical experience, and conduct scientific, objective and comprehensive analysis and identification, rather than relying on subjective reasoning, research and speculation to identify the authenticity. Here are a few simple and easy-to-grasp basic methods for you.
For ancient jade, the first thing we have to look at is four points: jade quality, color, carving, and ornamentation.
1. Jade Ancient jade generally has good jade quality, the structure of jade itself is precise, the texture is warm, delicate and hard, the stone is less and there are no impurities, there is treasure light, and it does not look rough and sluggish.
Second, the color is natural, deep into the texture, the true cracks are subtle and shallow, and the color and jade are integrated.
<> Third, the carving is meticulously crafted, the lines are smooth, the base is smooth, and the turning is orderly, which will not give people the feeling of shoddy work.
Fourth, the ornamentation of no matter which dynasty, has its own unique style and characteristics, ornamentation is a symbol of the times carved on jade. Usually, we must know more about the relevant works, and grasp the characteristics of the changes in the ornamentation in each period, so that the grasp of the "broken dynasty" of ancient jade has considerable accuracy. Nowadays, ancient jade is a non-renewable resource, very rare and very precious.
With people's further understanding of the cultural connotation of ancient jade and high ancient jade and the change of policies, from the perspective of investment, compared with modern jade and Ming and Qing jade, investment in collecting ancient jade has more potential.
Jade has a history and culture of nearly 8,000 years in China, from ancient times to the present, jade carving technology is also constantly improving, and some ancient jade left over from ancient times have also become treasures, witnesses of history.

In 012, Zimbabwe** announced the issuance of banknotes with a face value of 100 billion, and the figure of 100 billion makes people feel very lofty, after all, many of us have a monthly salary of less than five figures. So how much is the exchange of 100 billion banknotes into RMB? The answer is a loaf of bread.
However, now Zimbabwe** has abolished the circulation of its national currency and replaced it with the US dollar, yuan and other legal tenders.
From 15 June 2015 to 30 September 2015, 175 trillion Zimbabwean dollars can be exchanged for US$5, with a minimum of US$5 per Zimbabwe account. In addition, for Zimbaba issued before 2009, 250 trillion Zimdollars can be exchanged for 1 US dollar. Zimbabwe's currency, the Zimbabwean dollar, will be out of circulation in September, and Zimbabwe has a multi-monetary policy.

A few days ago, a 60-year-old uncle in our community he is such a person, all year round as a day in the morning he is always the first to get up in the whole yard to exercise, which is also from time to time to drive us young people, we get up early with his early I also become early up, after a long time we have become friends to exercise, but it must be the years are not forgiving, we are all out at the same time to exercise, but just a few days ago, when the two of us exercised together, I found that the uncle's footsteps were not as good as a few days ago.
I'm still wondering if my uncle doesn't want to exercise with me, so I stepped forward to ask, at that time he was very reluctant to tell me why, and then I finally said under my every inquiry, the reason is this, his wife and he also exercise regularly, but because of physical differences, contracted a cold, due to the inert thinking of the elderly, always want to carry it and pass, everyone may know that the cold is not a serious disease, always put it off again and again, but some people carry it but some people can't resist it, Not only did he not carry it, but his condition worsened, and he came to the hospital later and was diagnosed with uremia. Oh my God, "uremia" Uremia is a very troublesome condition, second only to diabetes, and I don't think uremia would have been cured if it had been cured for a small amount of money at that time. Isn't this just a fulfillment, human life is not worth anything, and it becomes valuable when it arrives in the hospital, four or five hundred for a small cold, four or five hundred thousand for uremia, is it an upgraded version of a cold?
I want to tell people that in their daily lives, they should always care about their bodies, and if they feel uncomfortable or have a cold, they must be prevented and not relaxed. Make sure you spend your money in the right place. You only live once. Caring for life starts with you and me.

1. Melee diamonds. Love lasts forever, and one lasts forever. Many people associate diamonds with love, but in fact, the vast majority of diamonds we come into contact with in our lives are melee diamonds.
This ** is not just very cheap, but very cheap. Including Zhang Yuqi in the entertainment industry, he also said that broken diamonds are not worth much. Because melee diamonds have no value.
Most of us in the jewelry store are bought in **, and they are not worth selling for money. If you really like diamonds, you might as well buy a larger whole diamond so that you can cash in later.
Second, jade bracelets.
All ornaments presented in jade are prone to IQ tax problems.
Just think that this Xiuyu bracelet can always be sold for tens of thousands of dollars under the flickering of merchants.
It looks transparent, and it feels really rare to listen to what the seller says. But in reality, it's only a few dozen dollars.
The output of Xiuyu is very large, and the value is about the same as glass, and many people do not understand jade and have no ability to identify.
It is easy to buy the merchant's Xiuyu.
With the play is also excited, if the follow-up is in a hurry to cash out, the price of high blood pressure has come up.
3. Calligraphy and painting.
Many companies want to ask a pair of calligraphy and paintings to be placed in the office to indicate the grade and meaning of the office.
Every time I see Wang Jianlin taking out millions of treasured calligraphy and paintings, I feel that calligraphy and paintings are very expensive.

An ice cream sticks a few pieces of gold leaf and it feels cool and fried.
The melt-in-your-mouth gold leaf is completely golden.
But in fact the gold leaf of the **.
You can buy one for just yuan. And this one is still real gold leaf. It's just that it's too thin, only about microns.
1 gram of gold can be beaten into hundreds of pieces of gold, and there is additional profit margin compared to the price of gold to be beaten into gold leaf.
So even if you see edible gold leaf in the future, don't be fooled, and the actual embellishment will be less than a few cents.

Today, a colleague wore a bracelet full of broken diamonds to work, blinding everyone's dog's eyes.
I always wanted to buy diamonds for my wife, licked my face and wanted to ask**, I thought it would be very expensive, but I didn't expect it to be seven or eight hundred.
If you think about it, there are always things around you that you think are very expensive, but they are actually extremely cheap.
Today, I'll count them for you. A must-see for those who want to give gifts and are shy in their pockets!
1.Melee diamonds. A must-see for men who want to buy diamonds for their wives!
As the saying goes: love lasts forever, and one lasts forever. Many people associate diamonds with love, but in fact, most of the diamonds that most people don't touch in their lives are melee diamonds.
Melee diamonds are also intact diamonds, but with smaller grains.
The ** of broken diamonds is surprising, and only a few dozen pieces are needed for one carat. Zhang Yuqi, a famous star in the entertainment industry, once said that broken diamonds are not worth much. Because the line liquid is a broken diamond, there is no value.
2.Silver. Yes, you read that right, the **, which is on par with gold, is actually very cheap. The current price of silver is about 5 yuan a gram, which is almost 100% of ****.
In the past, it was said that real gold **, but in fact, only the gold part is expensive. Silver rings, silver jewelry, may not be ten grams, the cost of materials is basically a few tens of yuan.
3.Jade. The water in the jade industry is very deep, and all the ornaments carved from jade can easily make you pay the IQ tax.
For example, the gifts given by shopping malls and supermarkets and the likes to be placed on roadside stalls, some Xiuyu bracelets can always be sold for tens of thousands of dollars under the flickering of merchants.
Looking at the crystal clear, the seller blows the sky, and in fact the cost will not exceed a hundred yuan.
Because the yield of low-quality jade is very large, the value is about the same as that of glass.
4.Calligraphy calligraphy and painting.
Many entrepreneurs and bosses want to ask a calligraphy and painting to set up a file to inspect things in the office, improve the style of the office, and improve feng shui.

Tianshan Snow Lotus has the effect of tonifying the kidney, regulating menstruation, stopping bleeding, and aphrodisiac, and can ** impotence, waist and knee weakness, women's menstrual irregularities, rheumatoid arthritis and traumatic bleeding. It is a must-have for home travel and gifts.
Aside from the color, stability, purity, and density mentioned above, the main reason why platinum is more expensive than ** is that it has few reserves and a wide range of uses. The proven global reserves of platinum are only 10,000 tons, which is **5%; China's platinum reserves are less than 90 tons, and the annual mining volume is about two tons; Platinum has super good catalysis, and those who study chemical industry will definitely know that it will be used in automobile exhaust treatment, factory exhaust gas treatment, and nitric acid plants; Platinum is the main component of high-temperature thermocouple wire, which is inseparable from almost all high-temperature equipment; Platinum-based alloys can have high high-temperature strength, and are key equipment in the electronic glass and glass fiber industries. So you see, only a small part of it is used for jewelry, and the industrial use has caused the largest rigid demand for platinum, coupled with very small reserves, ** is naturally high.
