In the world, countless business people work hard in their working place. Why do they work hard? It is an ongoing debate. There are many ideas about what drives businessmen. Some people argue that there should be other reasons than money for most business people. However, I have a different idea. When it comes to the statement that all people, especially in the field of business, are motivated by only the desire of money, I strongly agree with it. I totally think that money is the reason why people work hard for two reasons: money is essential thing and people size up other’s success by money. people size up(judge) others' success by money.
To begin with, since money is the most critical aspect for making a living, desire of money is the only stimulus for most people. People eat food, wear clothes, educate learn(educate=가르치다)in school, and drink water, which are indispensable things in order to live. Only money makes these possible. A dominant newspaper in Korea reported an article supporting this idea. According to the article, one family who live in Seoul, a the capital city in Korea, spends living cost at least 500 dollar a month. This proves people spend money to live and cannot live without money. This is why people continue their work; nevertheless it is hard because society has changed more competitively. Therefore it can be said that desire for more money has been the biggest motivate motivation because it is the only thing they need in order to exist.
Furthermore, money tends to be the only measure for the success of a company of one’s life, and this is why most people who are in field of business find happiness from gaining more money. Putting it differently, business people want to win recognition from public, and common people determine their one’s success by looking at their financial wealth. To be specific, if I earn a lot of money, I can wear nice clothes(cloth는 천.), get a big house, and spend much money on my friend. These can make me seems a successful person and people can evaluate me as a successful person. There is a convincing example supporting this idea. The Gallup Korea conducted related survey to this argument. They asked diverse different generations of Koreans, “Who is a successful businessman?” According to the result, more than half of researcher responses answered said that a person who earns much money lives a successful life. This result proves people tend to measure one’s success by sizing up their amount of money. Therefore, it is obvious that money is what drives most businessmen since much money makes them successful people.
In conclusion, as I mentioned before, money is necessary to live and makes people gain good reputation. So, people, especially businessmen people, need to money and this desire of money makes businessmen continue work. |
