🔲 IF MONEY WEREN'T AN OBSTACLE..

in #steem7 years ago (edited)

What would you do with unlimited resources?
~Zane Bradshaw~

The world of currency can be a pretty daunting experience for most people. It's understandable, considering 99% of the world's wealth is held by 1%.. What about the thought that over 50% of the population doesn't have enough to even survive comfortably?

50%? That means for every two people you see, at least one of them on average will have financial instability. That's pretty crazy.

Now, I say in the title 'OBSTACLE', because I know that's the way most people perceive money. Is it truly an obstacle in reality? Not at all. But that topic is for another time.

Right now, go ahead and begin to think about how you would feel if you had more than enough money to do anything you wanted in your life. What would you do right now, today, if all your debts were vanished, and you had unlimited choices? Where would you go? What is the very first thing you would do?

Let me know in a comment what thought come to your mind!

This is a good way to start this conversation.
Because it is indeed how most people think about money.

However, we like to yack about the 1%. And how poor we are compared to them. But it is not their wealth that is keeping us down. It is the system that they own that keeps us shackled.

And their best system is public indoctrination called govern-cement schooling. Which teaches us to be poor. To think poor. And to hate the rich.

If we killed the rich, we would be even poorer. We don't even know who the rich are. All we see is the illusion of wealth created by tinsle town. We do not know at all who is actually running The US. So, the people we would kill are the ones who produce 80% of everything that we enjoy. So, instantly, we would have to survive on the 20% that was left.

Yes, half of america is in poverty, but it is poverty with heating, refrigeration and often A/C.

So, I look forward to more articles raising people's understanding of money.

WOW hectic response haha. Wasn't exactly answering the initial question of 'what would you do with unlimited funds?'.. But hey, I'm not complaining either haha.

You are heading on a very in-depth track there. It's very well true what you're saying. In simple terms, that's the whole talk of the Illuminati. That's why we also don't know who they are lol. Well, we do.. But we don't haha.

But you are certainly correct. It's actually not at all about how rich the 1% are.. Because their wealth doesn't really directly impact us. It's more about how delayed the rest of the world is in the process. Like you said, it's the schooling system. Designed to slow us down, and make us perceive the world as something it's not.

It's dramatic.

However, at the same time, I don't want to use it as an excuse. Because anyone has the capability to achieve anything they want. A poor person can become 1% wealthy as well.

Nice talk ;)

Whoa, that is pretty crazy to think about. If right now today I have unlimited funds... I would start with the homeateaders around me that need basic things....like helping to drill wells and get solar panels. I would pay off all of my extended families debt so they could feel free also. I would buy an RV and try to see as much as I could. There are alot of things that could use my money. Opening a food pantry, and helping with getting people dental help. If my funds were unlimited I would never have to worry about my own food or well being, so why not outward....just love! 🙃 Be well! @freedompoint

Hectic! That's awesome.

Is everyone just trying to sound really nice by making their comments about charity? xD Because I would honestly love to buy a Lambo and a huge mansion to enjoy for a bit if I had unlimited money lol. Buy a yacht and just go!

Not that I wouldn't give to others, I'm just stating what I would really love to do haha.

Great answer though!

Haha right! I am a simple man with simple ideas. No lambo for me...i might be too tall for one anyway haha.

I think you know from my tag what my answer would be? Yes, I will spend it all on things like decent skills training for the poor and to create thousands of entrepreneurs with their own small businesses! I would pay stipends to thousands of volunteers to adopt orphans and I will ensure that our youth receive a top class education. Many other things I can mention but no space here to embroider on the help that I would buy for the poor elderly people! Blessings and Upvoted!

Haha it would have been pretty ironically funny if you said "buy a bunch of Lambo's" after reading your tag though xD

But that's awesome! You have a great heart.

After being financially free, I would like to know the world. After money is not an obstacle, I believe that now you will think of time as an obstacle to everything you still have to do.

I like how you say 'after'. Like it's simply going to happen! That's the attitude :)

Sounds good. Nothing tells a great story like great experiences!

There was a time I had no money at all and I was a broke ass, all those times, I use to think that if I have enough money I will do exploits.

I thought money was my problem, and yeah, money was part of the problem, but other things big than money were the real problem.

So I got some money and I was okay, I had very little problem in my life, but I have more worries now. Worries are worse than problems.

I lost passion and focus and I'm trying here to gain both because they are the fuel that makes me work. I'm also losing creativity.

@enazwashsdarb this post is timely and I'm thinking if there's anyway you can help me regain my passion and focus for my work again. Maybe share an advice or expereince?

I love to write always, but I hardly have the inspiration to do so now, I wish to post more on steemit, but it becomes difficult daily.

What advice do you have for me man?

I thought money was my problem, and yeah, money was part of the problem, but other things big than money were the real problem.

Nicely put! It's not that money isn't the problem.. It certainly can be. It's just not the biggest problem.

What advice do you have for me man?

In the time of me being away, I have indeed had a few breakthroughs. I was stuck on the scene of asking myself what the purpose of life was. Baring the question, 'Why are we actually here?'

I have come to one very simple conclusion. Life is about living in the now. That's why the past is the past, and the future is the future. They don't mean anything really.

The past is over, and cannot be relived. The future cannot come any faster, and will always eventually happen, so don't worry about it. The only thing that matters is right NOW.

Live in the moment. Do what genuinely makes you happy.

I love to write always, but I hardly have the inspiration to do so now

Firstly, don't be too hard on yourself. If you don't feel like writing daily, you don't need to. But if that's a goal of yours, then don't think too hard. Just let your mind loose, and set yourself free. Don't think, just do.

It doesn't always matter about the content, but rather the passion behind the person making it. Keep yourself happy, do only what you want to do at the time, and just do whatever feels best. Also, don't worry too much about the end result, just start going at it, and let things flow.

At the end of the day, people see you when they see your product. So if you really believe in the things you do, they will have no choice but to succeed.

I actually spend way too much time thinking about having unlimited funds so this assignment isn't that hard. Haha First things first, I settled for cereal this morning when I really wanted pancakes and mimosas from a place near me. While waiting on the food to arrive I pull out my laptop and go to at least 3 charities I have bookmarked and sponsor/feed 100 children, donate to Vets, and abused women to start. After I eat and get home, I call the number listed on the vacant lot by my house, buy it, and start an indoor sustainable farm that permanently donates free food to pantries, run and protected by Vets and youth that are prone to joining gangs.

You settled for cereal? Well I mean.. I kinda enjoy some cereal sometimes haha. But if pancakes is what you really wanted, then you should not have settled for cereal!! Go get your damn pancakes lol.

indoor sustainable farm that permanently donates free food

That's pretty in depth! Nice one :) Thanks for the great response

Haha. Well there's the bottomless mimosas, valet, and the fact you don't want to go alone. It adds up quick. And once you've tasted Zeus's nectar, it's hard to swing by the local Dinner. I'll make it happen soon though.

While having unlimited money would remove some stresses in my life, I'm at a point right now I wouldn't change much. If be frivolous and buy some unnecessary things but mostly I'd just pay off all my families debt and live life pretty much the same as I do now.

Hectic. So if you won't change much, does that mean you are living a great life right now? :)

Also, what are some of those unnecessary things you would buy haha?

Got married last year, just bought a new house. Pretty happy with my life at the moment.

I think I'd go a bit overboard on renovating our new house. Buy fancier things, a little flashier than I would normally. If waste a bunch of money on commuters as well.

Congrats on your wife and the house! That's awesome :)

Well there's nothing stopping you from still doing all that!

I just started a new life path. I'm re-building my self confidence day-by-day, and today my steemit news section showed me your content. What a great way to start my day. I'm really appreciating what you are doing. Positive vibes always help.

So, let's see... No money problem... Enriching myself with many experiences as I can to be able to be a reference point for others. Honestly, even today I don't see money as a problem, but still don't have the right attitude to make the others feel the same.

Thanks for your kind words! I’m glad my content showed itself when it did then 😁

I love it! Many experiences such as?

Yes money is a essential resource that serves as a vehicle to your desired destination in the accomplishment of any project.

if it is not available at the time, it should not really in your mind be the obstacle.

Start with what you have ... with the friends you have and in due time kings would come to your rising.

Awesomeness! Thanks for your feedback 🤘🏻

That’s a good question. I’m not used to have to unlimited choices therefore I would just continue worrying about what would be if ...?

However I might could finally be more helpful a d thoughtful towards others. And just really enjoy the day and the moment.

Just remember at the end of the day it’s all up to you with regards to the amount to choices tou allow yourself to have 😉

Awesome response. Thanks!
