The notion of dreaming and living without regard for financial reality can open the imagination to entire Worlds that money had rendered unrealistic.
Money restricts options and makes some dreams impossible.
But without money, there would be very few dreams whatsoever. While pursuing a life in which money does not matter may be exciting, it is a total fantasy.
Money is a vitally important feature of the social World that we simply can not do without, and using it is a moral issue. Money, then, is both a media of exchange and a means of calculation.
It allows individuals to acquire things they want and to more precisely determine the value of their goods and services.
Fact is that money is important. Like it or not, money is dinner. Money is education. Money is life-saving medical technology. Of course, there are more important things in the World than being rich.
But the existence of money is an unavoidable feature of social life that everyone should consider.
What do you desire? What makes you itch? What sort of a situation would you like?
Let’s suppose, I do this often in vocational guidance of students, they come to me and say, well, ‘We’re getting out of college and we have the faintest idea what we want to do’. So I always ask the question, ‘What would you like to do if money were no object? How would you really enjoy spending your life?’
Well, it’s so amazing as a result of our kind of educational system, crowds of students say well, we’d like to be painters, we’d like to be poets, we’d like to be writers, but as everybody knows you can’t earn any money that way. Or another person says well, I’d like to live an out-of-doors life and ride horses. I said you want to teach in a riding school?
Let’s go through with it. What do you want to do? When we finally got down to something, which the individual says he really wants to do, I will say to him, you do that and forget the money, because, if you say that getting the money is the most important thing, you will spend your life completely wasting your time.
You’ll be doing things you don’t like doing in order to go on living, that is to go on doing things you don’t like doing, which is stupid. Better to have a short life that is full of what you like doing than a long life spent in a miserable way.
And after all, if you do really like what you’re doing, it doesn’t matter what it is, you can eventually turn it – you could eventually become a master of it. It’s the only way to become a master of something, to be really with it. And then you’ll be able to get a good fee for whatever it is.
So don’t worry too much. That’s everybody is – somebody is interested in everything, anything you can be interested in, you will find others will. But it’s absolutely stupid to spend your time doing things you don’t like, in order to go on spending things you don’t like, doing things you don’t like and to teach our children to follow in the same track.
See what we are doing, is we’re bringing up children and educating to live the same sort of lifes we are living.In order that they may justify themselves and find satisfaction in life by bringing up their children to bring up their children to do the same thing, so it’s all retch and no vomit. It never gets there.
And so, therefore, it’s so important to consider this question: What do I desire?
If I had money
I’d buy does people in place to stay
If I had money
I’d buy does people in place to stay
But all I got is a Time
And I got soo little time
If I had faith
I get down on my knees
If I had faith
I get down on my knees
But all I got is bad religion
And I got no where, no where to pray
If I had magic
I’d clean up this all mass
If I had magic
I’d clean up this awful mass
But I’m just a worker man
And I hopping for the best
If I had money
