In my rounds giving talks about investment, one of the things I fix is the audience’ mind set about money.
As we always hear, money is not evil. It only magnifies the person’s value. Money does not make a person greedy nor generous. It simply amplifies what’s really in the heart of the person. If the person is greedy, having more money makes him more greedy; on the other hand, if a person is generous, money makes him more generous and kind.
Money is essential for living, but it’s not everything. Money could not buy love, but it can get us closer to the one we love, it can make our unity more possible and enjoyable. So, if a person is genuinely generous the more he should have money to amplify his generosity.
Relationships don’t crumble down because of the lack of, or overabundance of money; relationships crumble down because the money issue amplifies a deeper reality, the true status that relationship.
Take what Khalil Gibran said about money: “Money is like love; it kills slowly and painfully the one who withholds it, and enlivens the other who turns it on his fellow man…”
Een mooie dag verder! :)
