What Do Rich People Have That The Poor Does Not Have Apart From Money?

  What Do Rich People Have That The Poor Does Not Have Apart From Money?   The rich has money which the poor does not have but aside that, there are other urbane possessions of the rich that the poor don't have and I will just write on10 of such. The rich has money because they have learnt how to make money flow to them effortlessly but the poor would never know or do that These other urbane possessions of the rich include: 1.  Wealth Mindset The rich has learnt that his mindset is everything and thus he guards jealously never allowing weeds and negative thoughts to live therein and making every effort to avoid the victim mentality. But the poor has accepted his condition as his fate and thus makes no efforts to extricate himself from the poverty pool. 2.  Personal and Financial Discipline The rich has taught himself both physical and financial discipline. He does not speak out of tune, he has a cultured mannerism, is often courteous and humble. He also...

Why Do We Need Money?

 

Why Do We Need Money?

 


It's necessary to live and eat, to be able to get around, and to have access to electricity, but whether you live off the grid, you must first have the financial means to pay for it.

I know you need a saw or an axe to cut down a tree or build a building, and you need money to purchase the saw and the axe.

Money, I believe, plays a role, whether good or bad.

I understand that you can live off the grid, but you'll need fruit trees, a vegetable garden, and some kind of protein to get started, and sadly, all of that will cost money.

I understand that you could possibly eat berries and fruit from the land that is already there, but it cost money to bring it there, and we will need solar panels, which is awesome, but all of this costs money, and batteries to power the solar panels cost money. I mean, unless you're only eating wild berries, catching fish in the stream, and living in a shack that you put together without the use of any resources that you had to purchase, I'm sure. I know you're short on cash!! I believe it makes you happier in the material sense, but not in the emotional sense; it is not a cure-all for happiness, but it does allow you to have things that make you happy.

And unless you have the land to grow your own food and raise your own animals (sheep for their wool so you can spin, weave, and make clothes out of it), you'll be cold, starving, and likely dead in no time.

We live in an advanced society where even the most basic of subsidies require capital. That's not the same as asking if "we as a society should grow to the point where all wealth is shared in common and all people's needs are met by society."

The two scenarios I use are diametrically opposed in every way. You should do the former if you don't want to be a part of society.

If you believe we should do the above, you will most likely have to wait a long time. I don't think we'll get to that point for a long time, if ever.

Humans are plagued by avarice and greed. Many of us can't be trusted not to do bad things. We clearly are not at a point in our macroevolution where we are ready for a society in which all wealth is shared, no one takes advantage of others, and everybody can be relied on to contribute to the smooth operation of society's wheels. Not only do we need and have resources, but we also need and have police.

However, even our police force is beset with issues... rogue cops who are high in power, or who steal from evidence lockers, or who do not apply the law fairly.

ALL OF THESE ARE REASONS WHY WE ARE STILL IN NEED OF Capital.

Our money is spent on taxes that fund our societal structures, but the bulk of it is spent on our own and our families' needs.

Perhaps you've wondered why certain people appear to want much more money than they actually need. That's a different topic entirely, maybe better posed to a member of the priesthood!

What Is Wealth?

  What Is Wealth? "A person's, community's, company's, or country's wealth is the total sum of all their valuable properties. Wealth is calculated by subtracting all debts from the overall market value of all real and intangible assets held. Wealth is essentially the accumulation of finite capital. When individuals, groups, or nations are able to acquire a large number of valuable resources or commodities, they are considered to be rich. Wealth differs from income in that it is a stock while income is a flow, and it can be measured in absolute or relative terms " There are as many definitions of wealth as there are writers and thought leaders. Henry David Thoreau says   “ Wealth is the ability to fully experience life. ” And Robert Kiyosaki says "Wealth is NOT a measurement of how much money you have but how long you can live without working." Understanding the Definition of Wealth Wealth can be represented in a number of different ways. ...

Are You a Wealth Creator?

  Are You a Wealth Creator? It occurred to me recently that not everyone knows what a "wealth creator" is, which is why I chose to focus this blog on this audience. Although we're all thinking about the year in focus which has gone 5 months ahead, but there can never be a bad time to talk about wealth and so, now provides an excellent opportunity to discuss the subject matter. What does it mean to be a wealth creator? The term "wealth creator" isn't specified in Merriam-Webster. There isn't even a Wikipedia entry for "wealth creator." That's not shocking, given that the definition isn't well-understood. “Wealth,” according to the dictionary, is described as an excess of valuable material possessions or resources. An "artist" is someone who creates something new or unique. The intersection of these two principles creates some complex dynamics and special requirements. Many citizens are wealthy; in reality, they ma...
