翩扇不富 (word 6)

Several years ago, under the influnce of one of my "friends", I played stock market. I had no big loss while he and his companion (both are white collar with high income) lost more than quarter of million dollars. One of the lesson, I think is 翩扇不富. Afterwards and especially now I'm concentrated on my work, believing that my own business should be treated as a stock, I'm a "CEO" in that regard,who needs to work hard to satisfy my "stock holders", atleast to avoid bankruptcy.
