I wish I could introduce all of you in person to a man who earns over a million a year (I cant recall which currency).
A man with the exuberance, energy and passion of a 20 year old, the pure angelic childlike eyes of a 5 year old, and the wisdom of someone beyond 100. He is timeless, ageless and someone so magical we connected almost instantly. He understood two things exceptionally well .. flow & energy.
He spotted my soul 10 metres away in a crowd and we had a blast sprinting across the ballroom like twin flames ablaze. We were working together as mike runners for two days at a wealth dynamics workshop.
I never would have guessed that by volunteering to help, I would soon learn magic, beauty and perfection. But above all, I learnt the strength of love… unconditional timeless love.
Some see wealth & money as something evil. Here is where I learnt to remember that money is but a tool or weapon. It is only evil if you use it for such. It is evil if you let it make you evil.
Money is so powerful an energized tool, it can bring out the best or the worst in you.
Just before the conversation on
Him
“I still think money is the key to everything...
esp when it comes to charity/research.”
Me
“agreed”
“money is a very powerful tool”
”i mean you and me work our entire lives out 5 times over, but will hardly make an impact on anything”
”y not?”
“what i mean as individuals....eg: volunteering your time”
“but in the extreme case of bill gates, he has poured so much money into charities/research .....”
“and that at least gets things moving...”
“so maybe work hard, and let yr money do the work”
“yeah .. i think thats more effective then what NGOs do”
”NGO's happen because of contributions..”
“NGOs depend on ppl like Bill Gates”
“so, do u plan to be rich?”
“erm, I want to....but i don't think it will happen as a wage-earner”
“any other means then?”
“business/lottery, unknown dead relative”
“hahaha ... hunting for a dying millionaire uncle?“
“yeah so far its been futile”
“heir to a china estate”
“dont you wnat money too?”
“of course”
“loads of it”
“so much i don't knw what to do with”
“ok....”
“but for what main reason...love/power/security or freedom?”
“u mean purpose of money?”
“i want money to spread love”
“and peace”
“the world disturbs me”
“i want to change it”
“apparently it is said that humans' motivation for money falls into that 4 basic categories”
“well, love i guess”
“love means wanting people to like you”
“hardly”
“i'm nvr bothered with ppl liking me”
“i just get angry and frustrated when i see ppl suffer”
“its so unnecessary”
“not me...i get angry when animals suffer”
“yes ... thats even worse!!”
“animals r so innocent!!”
“ok well basically the theory is that most people would say either Freedom or Security.....but the theory of unconscious motivation seems to suggest that most people want money for love or power”
“love n power”
“mks sense”
“yup..apparently there's a test to determine that....and most people fall into love and power when they would say otherwise”
“to get love or power?”
“yup...”
“meaning to say those that say they want money for security or freedom, r more likely to fall into the other 2 categories”
“well, where do i lie? .. if its to get away from anger and frustration?”
“dont know..what is the 1st thing you'd do when you have lots of money”
“and do not sugar coat it and say 'give a chuck to cancer research’.”
“depends on what crops up which gets me angry”
“becos we all know money is mostly for selfish purposes”
“yes .. “
“i'm glad i found someone who agrees”
“i got a huge badgering when i said that”
“badger them back..throw them a raccoon”
“hahaha”
“and where am i gonna find a raccoon?”
“a stuffed one”
“i'm glad you're not gonna hurl some poor animal”
“yup that's me”
“anyways ... to answer yr q”
“lets say if i see that bunch of stick thin african kids”
“i might just build an estate there”
“fund a kids shelter”
“teach them how to survive”
“get them to teach others”
“ok ok...so maybe you are one of the rare ones who takes care of other before themselves”
“well, i guess i'm still taking care of myself .. i dun wanna feel angry”
”you;re telling me the moment you have this bunch of money in yr account, you're doing the
“i hv a feeling thats the 1st thing i'll do”
