Money and its Craze among Rich, Poor, and Others
Money is everything, or it doesn’t matter
Monika
November 30, 2023
As the medium of communication and social visibility are increasing, the world is becoming more confused and complex. Most teenagers and people suffer from this dilemma and the “Money is everything, or it doesn’t matter” concepts.
If you are in a career-building stage, or someone who dreams of having more than enough money, this newsletter is for you. Keep reading if you want to know more about the 2 opposite perspectives on money.
Since the number of Rich people is less as compared to the rest, automatically you'll hear the majority of people preaching the importance of money.
Important Note!
Talking about sensitive and basic needs topics like money is often difficult. People have different opinions, explanations and interpretations.
I consider you to be open-minded and neutral enough to understand this topic. My intention is not to hurt someone’s sentiments, or any person in any way.
Common yet Ironic Statements
I'll do my best to share some crucial information that needs your attention.
When a girl talks about money, people soon make her a Gold digger.
When a boy talks about money, people sympathize with family responsibilities.
When a rich man talks about money, people say that he doesn't value money.
When a poor person talks about money, people say that Money is God and a way of survival.
They think that only they are right. But the truth is that each perspective is right in its way, depending on the circumstances.
Opposite status teaches their kids about earning more than enough money. But what's the difference?
Rich and wealthy people
From childhood, rich people teach their kids about people dealing and money management skills.
Rich people are serious about money and value it.
They raise their kids about the need for money.
They are ambitious and good at managing money.
They are not slaves to money.
They become the master of money.
They use money as a helping tool. They keep money under control.
Poor people & those who struggle financially
Poor people only talk about money without teaching the values. And the rest of the work is done by the visibility due to poverty. This is the first mistake.
They make money - their God.
Sadly, they become slaves to money.
They chase the money because of wrong myths.
Money starts controlling them.
Having multiple kids in the hope of erasing their poverty is the biggest mistake ever, probably because of the faulty belief system.
I hope now you can realize what is the influence of money and what is the influence of values.
At the end of the day, people who are good at handling money are good at handling family": and vice versa.
And only a good student is good at learning from the failures.
How?
Re-read it again to understand the priorities and values.
Another interesting way to understand it in the short without generalizing is - There is a huge difference between
1. Being serious about money V/S getting married only to take dowry (from girl) or property (from boy).
2. Ambitious V/S gold-digger
Now it depends on how you interpret it. If you just want to prove the other person wrong, there is a long list. But if you want to live a satisfactory life, then understand the difference between a master of money and a slave of money.
This Newsletter Showed you some crucial things and perspectives people end up ignoring and why keep struggling their whole lives despite wanting it desperately.
