Money
Albert Einstein said that knowledge is the currency for the 21st century, well I completely agree with that but, money is the currency of all centuries I believe. From the inception of the first ever coins till the existence of human beings, money will always be the top priority, it was that defines someone’s capacity, if someone is rich, he is high class and if someone isn’t, well he doesn’t belong to the high class.
Funny thing is that it also defines your smartness, yes, marks do not define your smartness, but your pay-check sure does, even so that sometimes, its not your smartness really, but the kind of people you choose for business. If you are shrewd you will do business with dumb people, who do not really know anything and you can sell them everything, you will earn but you won’t as smart as someone in the silicon valley, but if we do consider the general opinion, you shall be believed to be smarter as you earn more.
Money also defines your life, and your virtues, for someone money is everything and for someone, relations, friendships and similar things matter more than money, because they are born and brought up in that way?
Well, partially correct but it’s actually how they are born and brought up, its about the financial conditions altogether. How life made them learn the importance of money, for a person whose life revolved around wages, well money is extremely important for them, but for someone who was born with a silver spoon, well other things and virtues of life matter more than money.
These things do matter but they do when you have enough for your survival, as even without greed, the bare minimum is always required, but when that changes, you become a different person and the perspective of money and virtues, change you.
Money is Power, money is life, it is a necessity and possibly one of the greatest teacher of all.
