How should one invest a sum of money in these clays of inflation （通货膨胀）?Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value,however high the interest rate.Only a brave man,or a very rich one,dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market.Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings,and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past.Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks,which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques.
I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life."The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound． It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands.Men can do nothing without its permission,and it fastens its young round people's wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control.This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves."
Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality,but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time.Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of clay according to the beating of their own hearts.They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout tire time.So it seems that the first clocks were human beings.
However,men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time.They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun.They marked the hours on candles,used sand in hour- glasses,and invented water-clocks.Indeed,any serious student of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces,stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past.
Antique clocks could be very expensive,but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home.After all,if you are going to be ruled by time,why not invest in air antique clock and perhaps make a future profit?

一个人在通货膨胀的日子裏应该怎样投资一笔钱呢?（译者按：原文的 these clays of inflation 似乎应该是 these days of inflation）无论利率有多高,让它留在银行便很难保值.只有勇敢或富有的人才有胆子在股票市场进行买卖.今天,最能保护你的储蓄,甚至增加你财富的最佳方法之一,是购买漂亮的古旧物品.我会在这裏为你提供一些收集古董钟的意见.我个人认为它们是最有趣的古董之一.
有时候我会好奇地猜想,一个外星人在向同类报告时,会怎样描述我们的生活呢?“地球是由一种奇怪的生物统治的.它坐或站在房间裏,发出奇怪的嘀嗒声.它的一张脸孔有十二个黑色标志和两支针.人类没有它的允许便甚麼也做不了,而且还会把它的小孩缚在手腕上.这样,无论人类走到那裏,都会受到它的控制.这种生物是地球的真正主人,而人类则是它的奴隶.”
我们今天到底是否时间的奴隶,这全都视乎我们的文化和个性而定.不过,一般意见认为,古代的帝皇都有专门报告时间的奴隶.有些人擅长按照自己的心跳来计算每天的时间（译者按：原文的 time of clay 似乎应该是 time of day）.他们被安排在固定的地方站著,并在每小时大声报时一次.所以,世上第一个时钟可能就是人类自己.
然而,人们很快便发现了更方便和准确的报时方法.他们学会了利用日影.他们在蜡烛上标出小时；利用沙作为钟面；又发明了水钟.事实上,认真研究古董的人都应该尽量抽时间逛逛各种宫殿、大宅和博物馆,务求能够看看一些古时最好的钟表.
古董钟可以非常昂贵,但收集时钟的乐趣之一,便是仍有可能找到一些相当便宜的钟放在自己家中.毕竟,倘若你会受时间支配,何不投资在一只古董钟上,这样也许还能在日後获利（译者按：原文的 invest in air antique clock 中的 "air" 似乎应该是 "an" 才对）.

人应该如何投资一笔钱在这些粘土的通货膨胀(通货膨胀)?滞留在银行,也难保持它的价值,然而利率很高。只有一个勇敢的人,或者一个很有钱的人才敢买和卖的股票市场。今天看来,最好的方式之一来保管你的储蓄,甚至是增加你的财富是买古董。我在这里要提供一些收集古钟的建议,我个人认为这也是古董中最有趣的。
我有时候想知道什么是来自另一个星球的生物会回来报告描述我们的生活方式。"地球的统治下,坐着或者神秘的动物站在一间屋子里发出奇怪的滴滴嗒嗒的响声。它们的面部有十二颗黑色斑点和两只类似手形的标志。男人可以做,没有得到它的允许,这年轻人锁牢人类的腰,这样,无论人们去他们仍然在它的控制。这种生物是世界的真正统治者,人类都是它的奴隶。”
我们是否今天是时间的奴隶取决于我们的文化修养和人格,但是,大家都相信,在很久以前,国王有一个专门报告时间的奴隶。这些人很擅长于粘土测算时间根据殴打了他们自己的心灵。他们站在一个固定的位置,大约每小时就喊轮胎的时间。由此看来,人类的第一个闹钟。
然而,人类很快就发现了更多的便利和可靠的报告时间的方法。他们学会了运用太阳光线投射出的阴影来。它们标志着几个小时在蜡烛,用沙子在小时——的眼镜,发明了water-clocks。的确,任何认真钻研古董应该尽可能花时间游览名胜,参观豪宅和博物馆来欣赏旧时最好的钟表从过去。
古钟是非常昂贵的,但是收集古钟的乐趣之一是,它还是有可能找到相当便宜的给自己的家。毕竟,如果你将要受时间,为什么不投资于古钟呢,或许未来利润?
