Respect is tied to money and people understand that,
but often we put the value into money ourselves, without
consciously looking at the real figures.

No matter how much money we win or get without
work, it will never be enough, because, as you’ve said Anand,
we don’t value it ~~as much~~ at all.

I think the point about ‘being rich is bad’ basically comes when you have not “earned” it..Say, you are spending away your dad’s millions in a club or won it in a lottery – these are something people frown upon because you are not putting a value on money.

But people admire Warren Buffet for his inate ability to make money. So, it’s basically how you make money that earns you the respect..

I must have missed something! Maybe because I was born in Tasmania, I missed out on the whole “rich is bad” philosophy.

I agree rich can be good, as long as you don’t depend on it for your happiness – and I fully intend to experience this for myself very soon.

Rich is good. I am good. I deserve to be rich. I WILL be rich. Very soon.

Live Life Happy!

That very well maybe the problem Eric.

Personally, I had the same issue. As soon as I’d
have money I’d look for ways to spend it or
to give it away to someone who needed it more and
was left broke again.

It was an unconscious way of saying to the universe:
thanks, but no thanks, I don’t deserve it.

I believe most people probably agree here. From my own point of view I think the problem is that people have no vision of how things actually could be better for them. They don’t understand how and why they should get to a better place within themselves and create the happiness they could be feeling and therefore don’t believe having a lot of money will help you in your life once you already have the money.
