This is not a sports-related thread, but this was one of the videos that I encountered last night that is worth sharing.

"When you're poor and eat vegetables, it's a struggle. When you're rich and eat vegetables, it's healthy."

"When you're poor and ride a bike, it's failure. When you're rich and ride a bike, it's discipline."

"When you're poor and wear real gold, they call it fake. When you're rich and wear something simple, they call it designer."

"In the end there's no high or low. Life just changes under the filter of money."

The fiat money of modern society, the post industrial revolution money, has destroyed the concept of life.

When every family had a trade, a farm, the same set of routines, we were all equal or much closer to equal. Now we are distant. The haves and the rest of society, that works enslaved to a fake dollar. There is no more quality of life, it's measured by advertising.

It wasn't that long ago when our Presidents were simple farmers, just like their constituents, with the same daily routine, earning the same currencies- real money, gold money, and the separation wasnt measured in material wealth but rather wit, education, creativity and morality.

The creature from Jekyll Island is out of it's lair and running rampant.

In the end, the bankers alway win.

How to become wealthy over time:

Relationships are the real assets,
value is what I am able to deliver to others,
cashflow is king,
and I personally avoid the debt game.

I focus on increasing all of these while scaling my value to others--money is just the measuring stick of how well I do these things. When money is valued above the real assets and values in life, you must chase the dollar because you'll always be in starvation mode.

Fake Dollar?

You mean printing paper out of thin air and calling it money and assigning it a value isn't real?!

You need a positive lifestyle change, bro.

1. Try going back to Church and getting right with God.

2. Go for morning walks/develop new wxercise routine.

3. Change diet/start eating healthy foods.

4. Try to find a steady girlfriend. Stop banging hookers/hanging with lowlifes.

5. Travel. See the world. My highest recommendation is going to Italy and explore.

6. Find yourself. This is very extremely important and very misunderstood. If I asked the average peraon the simple question "Who are you?" most have no idea.

They would tell me their name or what they do for a living. It doesn't mean that.

WHO are you?

By what God created you.

WHO are you, bro?
