Here you will find some of the greatest quotes about Money.
Trust in money is the most universal type of trust in human society.
We all believe in money.
If we learn to understand and care for each other and prevent scarcity among the less privileged, we’ll be happy with or without money as a tool.
Whether you like it or not, you should understand money.
Long-term Freedom is what gives space for everything beautiful in life to exist.
Not having money for essentials, especially when caring for a family, is a constant stress that no human should have to go through. It’s a bad situation that leads to bad life choices and we have to restructure our capitalist society, so no one is left behind.
Big corporations should stop receiving endless subsidies and tax breaks.
The financial industry creates mostly nothing, and its meaningless branches can be taxed, so it shrinks from its overblown size.
Something should be done about tax havens.
Humans don’t have great Intuition about time and money. So, the feeling of how money accumulates over time is absent.
Both in terms of supplying enough doctors, teachers, caretakers, and in an attempt to bring some much-needed financial fairness to these largely underpaid jobs, we have the moral incentive to increase social mobility and the Freedom of each person to have access to well-paid work.
Reducing the low-wage exploitation in society can’t be a bad thing on any level.
People want to give back, we just need to make sure they have Time and Resources to give instead of being in a constant struggle to survive.
The day job is structured like a dictatorship. You can’t vote the boss out or even debate on even grounds at most workplaces.Your only real Freedom is to leave the Job.
Often, the only way for career advancement is to become friends with the dictator (corporate politics). Sooner or later, you get what you can from the dictator (job), and it’s time to… switch the country. A new day job means a new country with another (better or worse) dictator.
Progress comes with Change, not stability. It needs a mess. It needs Freedom.
Dictatorships get worse in the end times of the dictator, and democracies seem to get better overall slowly.
If we manage to sacrifice simple Order so we have Long-term Freedom in society, you can do it in your own life too.
No support structure can teach you what the mess of real life can be.
No job can give the same Diversity of Experience at the same time compared to Entrepreneurship.
It’s wrong to measure experience in years. I would like to know how many different things you have experienced.
If you did a niche task for 5 years, you’re hardly 5 times as good as someone who did it for 1 year – the difference is more like 10-20%. So repetition leads to waste.
People are held back by Inertia and resist Change. People specifically resist Change from something known to something unknown. People resist culturally unpopular changes that cannot be well explained to their conservative peers. People underestimate themselves and overestimate potential trouble. And all of this is fantastic… for you.
Fears of Change are biologically built into all of us. And here lies your biggest chance.
The fact that everyone else does not take their chances just increases yours.
The demand for the economic results of risky / Hunter moves is high, and so the supply is low. This is where not only the experience is, but also, literally, the money.
When wondering whether to try X, if you do and it doesn’t work, you still get the experience. But if you don’t try and it would have worked, it’s just a complete total loss, the worst case scenario. So, trying (not-objectively-dangerous) things is just worth it.
People are stuck in Sheep mode, and so the door is still wide open for you and will be for a long time to come.
We didn’t evolve for specific goals. Goals are a luxury of the modern world and detach us from our natural tenaciousness for more, the beauty of the unexpected, the power of Flow, and the fact that potential is almost limitless.
It’s ok to want just one universal thing – Progress. No details, no pressure, no Success, no failure.
The hardest part is the start of the Change. Then it will continue by itself.
Your ideal relationship with money has three core principles: earn as many big chunks of easy / fun money as possible; aim to have enough money so you don’t have to care about expenses like rent and food; investing in yourself and your life / work is better than saving / investing anywhere else.
If an activity is hard, it draws people who are searching for a challenge. The economic results of such activities are in high supply – the money is gone, and only scarcity is left for most.
Almost every daily task can be tweaked until it becomes fun.
The economy changes and constantly opens and shuts doors.
Money idle in the bank is useless except for emergency use.
Saving for retirement while being less than 35 is an utterly stupid concept and an ultimate Sheep move. If you invest wisely in yourself and your skills in this super dynamic world, you’ll have more than enough funds when you retire.
We generally don’t understand how money works, and this is a great chance in your life. If you get past your Game of Self fears, forget what your parents and educators told you, and embrace the obvious Truth that easily earned money does exist, you will start seeing them everywhere.
Money is easier to find than Meaning, so if you’re stuck, it’s an ok first step.
