On his 35th birthday, Zhou Ming did two things: first, he took the initiative to apply for being laid off and received N+7 compensation of 1.27 Million; second, he went to the bank to pay off the mortgage in advance with 23 years remaining.
When he received the real estate certificate, the staff looked at him like he was crazy - after all, he had just given up his job with an annual salary of 600,000 yuan.
The wife packed her luggage and returned to her parents' home that night: "Zhou Ming, I don't want to spend my 3,000 yuan every month figuring out how to spend it!"
My parents called me from their hometown and scolded me for three hours: "We didn't send you to study just to make you a waste!"
Only Zhou Ming himself knows that in the past seven years, he has been like a programmed robot: monthly payment of 12,000, car loan of 5,000, child tutoring class of 3,000, favors of 2,000... The salary is divided into various accounts within ten seconds after it is received. Now, he is free.
He developed an "urban seclusion survival system": a scenario-based strategy for repurchasing second-hand platforms, a manual on community group buying vulnerabilities, and a map of the city's free public resources. Living on 3,000 yuan a month is more comfortable than my original monthly salary of 50,000 yuan - at least I can see the sun at four o'clock in the afternoon every day.
Until one day, when he helped the retired professor downstairs get an expert account, it became a hot search topic in the city. Middle-aged people in the whole city suddenly discovered that this "waste" was living the life in their dreams.
The real estate agent came to our door: "Mr. Zhou, can you teach us how to renovate the community with the lowest budget?"
The ex-wife came back crying: "My business failed, can you add someone to your 3,000 yuan plan?"
Zhou Ming looked at the shirts drying outside the balcony swaying in the breeze and suddenly smiled.
The mortgage has been paid off, but life seems to have just begun.
