There is a famous saying, "Once the rain is over, an umbrella becomes a burden to everyone.”
The bitter fact of life is that in our world, loyalty ends when benefits stop.
The only reason you should keep an umbrella is that the rain will not be over forever, and the umbrella will be helpful in the future.
However, if the umbrella becomes too old, broken and has many holes in it, it would surely be discarded forever,
Most human relationships are reciprocal in nature, and most people change their behaviour when you are no longer useful to them.
If you wish to live with self-respect and dignity, you must ensure that you remain useful throughout your life.
It is also important to understand that one day, you will become too old and lose all your utility to society.
In such a situation, the only thing that can make you useful is your savings and assets.
If you have money, your utility will never be over and there will always be a few people to help and serve you.
While there are certainly some good people who remember what you have done for them and would always be loyal to you, however, in reality, loyalty is tested only when you are in a difficult or hopeless situation, and if you are discarded at that time, you will have nowhere to go.
Hence, it is better to keep a backup option in the form of wealth, in case your loved ones and friends discard you at the time of your need.
Clare Boothe Luce wisely said, “Money can’t buy happiness, but it can make you awfully comfortable while you’re being miserable.”
