It is better to have a practical skill or expertise than to merely possess vast wealth, as skills provide a more reliable and enduring means of livelihood.
父母常教导我们，钱财总有用尽的一天，但学会一门手艺，便能受用终身，这真是“积财千万，不如薄技在身”啊
Our parents often taught us that money can eventually run out, but learning a skill will benefit you for life. This truly embodies the saying, "A thousand fortunes are not as good as a humble skill."
