RE: How Good People Unwittingly Make "Deals With The Devil" - An occult Perception Of Money

in #money7 years ago

wait you want more money :D but I thought it was bad. Steem is also inflationary. @johncongdon I like that comment. Actually adds to the conversation a lot.

I've been thinking on this topic, so what would you say, what is a good way to discover value and share that.

And also to quote the aforementioned

I will be interested to learn how you envision evolving beyond it. In seriousness, how would you suggest accomplishing that?

Sort:  

I know that I'm just chiming in here, but in my opinion, the bounds of fear are what's keeping most people from living within their means. Not even within their means, really, but just getting back to the basics of food, water, clothing, shelter...the essentials. We could survive in a shack. We could survive on bread and water. We could survive with extremely minimal "things." I think the point of this article is that we all continue to need money because we all continue to think that we need money. We aren't spending time learning about the essentials of the human body and how to grow food, purify water...etc Instead, we're at work making a paycheck, of which only a small amount is ours. The argument is still there though - "Where will you get the land to grow your food and purify your water, you hippy?" :) My hippy response to that is that you cannot actually buy land, and it be yours. You can give someone a bunch of fake money in exchange for the use of land that is still not yours. And yet, you're still a slave to it. I don't claim to know the answer, but there are plenty of people "living off the land," not a slave to corporate anything, not a slave to money...doin' the damn thang. What do you think about that?
