Money isn’t everything, or so they say, but I say, it is like oxygen.
You really don’t know how important it is, until you don’t have enough.
The amount of times I have heard that money isn’t everything, if I had a dollar for every time I have heard these words, I would be very well off indeed. Money is a very simple concept and also can be the most complicated thing some people can be involved with… for some strange reason.
It is a funny thing because people who have been clever with their investments being either business or real estate, normally have no issue with money as it is only a tool to be used to create comfort and lifestyle.
‘Playing’ the sharemarket could also be classed as investing but I will not voice my opinion on this one as some people do very very well, but I feel that my money would be better off not being in a man made emotional casino gambling system fully manipulated by the corporate entities. But hey… I could be wrong there… maybe…
Now, most of the people who do say that ‘money isn’t everything’ are most times the people who are professional employees who are just above the poverty line, living pay check to pay check. These people who are 97% of the population are the first to label ‘the rich’ as being greedy or dishonest because ‘the rich’ have more of that thing called money. I totally believe that money does not make you greedy or dishonest or most else that people say happens to you, but in reality, all having more does, is magnify your personality. This, in my opinion is true, as I have seen it 100’s of times.
If you are a poor arrogant person you will be a rich very arrogant person. If you are generous, you will be a rich very generous person.
The greedy ones are those who can only take care of themselves, as there is nothing left at the end of the week or they are drowning in debt and going backwards. Not consciously being greedy but they feel so financially restricted they believe there is no way they can give. Self Education can easily repair this.
Not the traditional education system as this is designed to create professional employees or worker bees. VITALLY important for society, but, without the entrepreneurial successful people, there would be no employees.
Financial and investing education is the education which will help you work money to your advantage. If worked properly you can then see money as a tool, to be used and not as a permanent oxygen mask.
97% of people say that money isn’t everything, but 3% say it is a very useful tool for the creation of lifestyle and comfort. Not only for them, but you always fit your oxygen mask first so you are in the position to be able to help. They put themselves in the perfect position to help the community because they can. I have heard that Bill Gates donates around 90% of his wealth to charities and an enormous amount of ‘rich’ people do this but don’t brag about it.
So money isn’t everything?? I say BS. It is what most people are working for, and selling their time for money.
If you think this is BS, ask yourself one question:
Would you still go to work everyday if you did not get paid?
I think I know the answer.
Do yourself a favour and get the financial education you need to make your life easier. Especially for the younger ones in your life. Start a savings plan putting away 10% of everything you earn. If you start this early enough and get into the habit of doing this, using compound interest, the 8th wonder of the world, you could ‘retire’ in half the time and you would not be dead or dead broke by 65 like 90% of people.
I can help you here because I am in the position to do so, and I do speak from experience.
