Yi Anguo had finally come to understand why so many wealthy people constantly complained about being short on cash. The wealthier people were, the more they seemed to lack money, because there was never enough to spend.
Moreover, the richer they were, the more they owed the banks. When the banks tightened credit, many affluent individuals had to tighten their belts, anxiously looking for ways to borrow money. If a cash flow was disrupted, it could be a matter of life and death. Companies would go bankrupt, and bosses would flee abroad to hide from their debts.
Yi Anguo could sell some of his real estate to raise cash, but selling properties now was not very advantageous.
I need to find more funds to invest in the stock market, he mused. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! If I miss it, it's gone forever. Can you imagine that after 2008, the A-share index would hover around 3,000 points for more than a decade?
