the value of money

hello,

which do you want .. do you want to work for money . or do you want the things you can get with the money .

money is important because nearly everything can be gotten for some amount of money ..from those who really need the money . and it is rarely common women chose men based on their ability to earn money .

so the urge and the drive we are instilled with from an early age ..is to strive to make the most money we can .

there is also this retirement thing . that means you have to almost save more than you earn ..20-30x your income when you retire . in order to retire .at which time you where supposed to start enjoying life . but today it just means you live on whats left after food mortgage and medical bills .

so you work hard for money the government takes a bunch of taxes out of you .. then what you do put aside in pensions mutual funds and other thing ..is invested in government debt.

so when you work for money ..just who are you working for.

now money is as important ok slighly less important than food air and water .. but as important if you want to have the best food and clean water ..and maybe even better air to breath .

in the world we live in the question is no longer ..there are many thing you can do that if you like doing them they can make enough money to support you doing them at some point if you are willing to get good enough that people will give you money .

there is also a ton of gadgets out there that make what use to take large amount of time..that you where willing to pay others for. and expensive equipment you could not afford .. into things you can do and afford to do in a very short time for less than what you would pay .

Today in this modern world the tools of entertainment can be used to produce things of value ..so you can have a computer that is wonderful for playing video games and watching you tubes..but you can also use it to post you tubes run a blog , a website to earn some money .

it can cost 5 $or more for a fresh baked loaf of artisan bread. or you can spend 250$ for an electric grain mill that will last 30 years .. and 400 $ for a bread mixer or food processing system.. that will make several loves of bread at once and last 30 years .. and then it is buying the grain you want and making bread with very little personal effort . that beats the taste of most you can buy .

let sat the price of fresh baked bread never goes up again and you 150 pounds of grain a year that makes 200 loaves of bread and may cost 100 dollars ..lets splurge 200 .

so 200 loaves of bread a year worth about 1000 dollars ..year number 1 pays for itself and you can throw in a 250 dollar solar oven ..and take out enrgy costs of cooking .

after that it is 800 - 900 dollars a year in savings while enjoying the best quality bread . but you can grind grain for many other things .. use the mixer for other thing ..and cook in the solar oven any time there is enough sun .

How much money you make is not 1/4 as important as how you spend the money you make ..

spend money on thing that improve your life , build your skills, and save you money over the long term . and you may never technically be rich.. but you can live quite wealthy . even the 25 $ thousand dollar watch can fit into this

spend money on things that add expenses and add no real value to your life .and the story is different .

understand what you want and either earn the money to get what you want or earn enough money to make what you want ..
