Simple Traps for Lazy Brains

According to the survey provided by National Chung Cheng University, the amount of money been defrauded in Taiwan last year was one hundred fifty-five billion Taiwan dollars. It was even higher than the damage amount, which was hundred sixteen Taiwan dollars, caused by steal in the same year. Although the damage amount been defrauded it revealed is much higher than the amount of twelve point three Taiwan dollars revealed by Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB), they are both huge amounts. In addition to this, CIB also reveals that fraud was the only criminal which increased its happening rate last year as well.

In the cases piled by CIB, there were indeed evildoers winning people’s confidence by revealing their stolen private data; however, there were still frauds using fake titles and gained their purpose. What were more unbelievable, people who got defrauded by these simple and crude traps actually knew that they had not done such a thing which the gangsters told them. There were not only people who had not received a good education but also people who were well-educated or high-educated defrauded by this kind of frauds. It is seen that it was not depending on the height of education to judge whether a person would avoid being trapped or not. Besides this, some people got defrauded twice or more without conscious.

It is said by CIB that the reason people getting defrauded is due to lack for living experience according to all these cases. Living experience is not equal to knowledge but accumulated by daily observations. Therefore, lacking living experience is lacking understanding of living world. It is people who do not actively get to know their living environment that gives the chance for gangsters to succeed. Due to the modern industry and commerce society, which requires highly efficiency in everything, Taiwanese people have become less willing to spend a period of time doing one thing at a time. They demand to do several things at a time and this makes them spend less time doing each thing. Since they have little time for each job, it seems to become an excess to let them get further understand of their jobs. Thus it creates a lot of crimes set up for this flaw and fraud is one of them. If people want to reduce the damage amount caused by defrauded, they should pay more attention to their lives, staying away from being lazy to get to know their living environment.

Simple Traps For Lazy Brains

  In an industry and commerce society, which requires highly efficiency in everything, Taiwanese people have become less willing to spend a period of time doing one thing at a time. They demand to do several things at a time and this makes them spend less time doing each thing. Since they have little time for each job, it seems to become an excess to let them get further understand of their jobs. Thus it creates a lot of crimes set up for this flaw. Take defraud for example. It has rapidly increased in recent years. People who lack for living experiences would probably get in trapped. In other words, people who are fooled by these gangs are not familiar with the process of the event these gangsters making use of. Until today, there are still many people been swindled and lost their belongings every year. Unbelievably, most of the tricks are very simple such as a phone call informing them they have won a large prize, which is held by an anonymous organization they do not even hear before.

  It is hard to tell whether it is due to the convenient Internet or the permanent cram education culture of Taiwan that people no longer spend time searching for necessary details they need. They just sit in front of a computer, keying in the key words and wait for the approximate correct answers coming out. Whenever they can not get a proper answer they need, they turn to ask someone else to figure it out. Therefore, when they get into a certain event which they are not dealing with everyday, they easily trust in the people who seem to be kind to teach them because they are not willing to find out the answer themselves. If people keep staying in this state, lazy to look for answers by themselves, the amount of wealth been defrauded would keep raising year by year. If you are this kind of person who always waits for somebody to tell you the answer, be ware, the racketeers are targeting you!

View Dilemma

  If you walk along the street, you may see people in low rise pants or jeans displaying their “under beauty” towards you. It is especially popular among teenager boys that they would even pull their outer pants half down or pull up their underpants and so you can see these colorful pieces sticking out their shorts or pants saying hello to you. You don’t even recognize which should be out and which should be in sometimes. These boys seem to take this kind of wearing a way to show their characters. You may see some unique designs such as a motto or a picture on their bottoms telling you what kind of people they are.

  Gradually, the fashion among girls becomes bold, too; but it is much more conservative. Underwear is no longer under shirts or blouses. It becomes part of girls’ garbs. The advertisements display the fashion to wear underwear outside on TV. Underwear has been designed more and more beautiful that it seems to be a pity to put it under clothing. It also reminds people to be aware of girls’ inner beauty and minds.

  People’s wearing style represents their characters. These position changes of underwear and outer garment may give a code implying that Taiwanese people’s thoughts have changed. This shows that people living in Taiwan nowadays are confident enough to express themselves towards others. They are not afraid to display their flaws because they have turned their flaws into features. The only side effect is that you may not know whether to look at these features or not since they are all at sensitive locations.

Transparent Trend Created by Internet

Blog using is popular among the Internet world nowadays and blogs provide various functions for users, such as article posting, album and video sharing. Taking Wretch, the most famous blog website in Taiwan, for example, its most renowned function among people is the album. The usage of real albums is to store people’s memories; while the albums of Wretch, combining the effect of Internet, add another function of spreading people’s interpersonal relationships. People get knowing others who supposedly were not been known by the connecting nets freely. This kind of interaction between people shows a fresh social value in this generation. It seems that people tend to make themselves transparent towards others.
On the Internet, people share their lives and feelings openly and make friends with strangers; yet blogs and net-albums are only part of this social changing. People have changed not only mental thoughts but also physical behaviors. Participated in this trend, even the clothing style becomes transparent, too. It has become a world fashion to wear underwear outside, which might evoke serious social argument in the past decades in Taiwan. It was not even welcomed to perform this ten years ago. This shows that people living in Taiwan nowadays are confident enough to express themselves towards others. They are not afraid. They welcome strangers to join their lives at will. This changing in Taiwan must be one of the side effects of Internet, which makes Taiwanese people think and act openly and freely.
