RE: The Craft Of Spending Money; Why Is It Difficult To Attain Mastery?

in LeoFinance2 years ago

Real wealth is like a drug

Also like a strong alcohol... If care is not taken, it can control man. Even more drug-ish is power. You will see that after one man has amassed huge riches, he'll still want to attain a powerful status. This is not limited to political power!

We know that normally we can not know a person's real attitude until he enters another stage in live such as being rich. Although change happens but if the negative ones get addition then its bad.

However, I like the fact that we're limited, a person can attain the height of wealth and power, but their mortality makes it easier for them to be checked.

Honestly, if men were immortal ...I cant imagine. The mortality we possess is one huge limitation to men to grow berserk.

This is the reality, the wealth we often seek can do a lot of damage. Some wealthy people do a lot of questionable things all in the name of making money. This is probably because no matter how wealthy they are, they'll still feel the need and desire to make more money.

In reality one's mortality is more of an advantage because it keeps us in check, this is why the human is not irredeemable, when we check to see that we might later die at the end of the day, it brings a sort of check to whatever evil we might seek to become.
