Money is an idea

Money is an idea, backed by confidence.

While money has naturally been developed by merchants in the older days to replace

the questionable barter system, money today is literally invented by the rich and wealthy.

Entrepreneurs are willing to part with their money to buy other people’s time. Other

people’s time i.e. employees and self-employed people becomes their employer’s asset

and the employers this priceless resource to go on to create more wealth for

themselves.

And here’s the thing: as long as you work for money, you are enslaved by it! 80% -

90% of the populations today are being enslaved involuntarily.

What we don’t realize is that there is a part of our soul that cannot be bought at whatever

price. Would you chop off your little finger if your boss offered you 24 months of your

salary immediately? You and I know we are worth more than that. But when you hear of

cases of people selling their body parts for cash in some countries, we can have our

eyeballs pop out of our eye sockets.

On the other hand, we occasionally DO sell out a part of ourselves for money like a

donkey and a carrot.

Awareness Before Change

Now don’t get me wrong: I’m not banging on working at a job (I worked at one before I

became an Internet Entrepreneur).

But let’s face it: our needs today are growing more than ever before in any period of

history. Prices go up, salaries don’t. There are more baby boomers than ever and have

very little pension to show for their decades of years of work efforts.

And there is no guessing to how many people really, really hate the unhealthy, hectic

lifestyle of getting up early, coping with stress for most parts of the day, join traffic jams,

spend more money and time in traveling, enjoy very little rest, and repeat the viscous

cycle.
