人們都說我們這一代人學(xué)財(cái)務(wù)，是為了下一代能學(xué)藝術(shù)。事實(shí)上，任何一代只要志趣所在，都可以投身藝術(shù)。但是，它說明一個(gè)道理，玩藝術(shù)最好家里有點(diǎn)經(jīng)濟(jì)基礎(chǔ)。不過，這里說的學(xué)藝術(shù)不是學(xué)著玩，指的是考藝術(shù)院校，將來以藝術(shù)為職業(yè)。藝術(shù)看起來不會(huì)創(chuàng)造什么實(shí)際價(jià)值，但它卻是讓我們成為文明人的標(biāo)志。即使對(duì)于普通人，藝術(shù)也是潤(rùn)滑劑（lubricant），讓人生更有意義。

People often say that our generation get into finance in order for our next generation to be able to go into the arts. Actually, any generation can devote into arts if they have an interest in it. Nevertheless, it reveals a truth, that is, if you want to go into the arts, you’d better have a well-off familyHere, by saying “go into the arts”, we don’t mean dabbling in art for fun, but enrolling in art school and choosing art as a career for life. Art seems to produce nothing of real value, but it is a sign of our civilization. Even for ordinary people, art works as a lubricant, adding more meaning to life.
