Warren Buffett在一次與business school學生的午餐見麵會中談到娶老婆的標準:
“A wife is the most important hiring and personnel decision you will make in your life. To have a successful marriage, you know what is the number one quality you should look for in a partner? It’s not looks. It’s not intellect. It’s not even character… [pauses] It’s finding someone with low expectations!” [everyone, including Warren, laughs]
雖然他可能是在開玩笑,但是他的這個標準既簡單,又很有道理。 期望值低就容易知足常樂,知足常樂就會家庭和諧。 要求不高也意味著給與對方發展的空間。 娶老婆用這個標準,那麽反過來嫁男人是不是也可以同樣呢?
