You see money is worthless if it doesn’t move.”- Grant Cardone.

If money doesn’t change its hands it’s worthless. Printing more money into the system is not the solution. Creating a system, that can exchange the currency within a country, is the secret to a healthy economy. That means the more money revolves within a country the more value it creates.

I remember this intense grief when I was a kid. I used to feel sad to see a woman begging for money. My gut felt sick to its core. I felt like giving up everything for this person. Looking at this woman begging for money, as if it was mercy made me feel sad because I was helpless. I didn’t have a penny to spare. I was a kid, I was a broke kid. What can I do?

But would that money really help her?

Recently I started educating myself about the economy. What the hell is this piece of paper? And why does a bank has the license to counterfeit and we don’t? Why is there such a continental gap between Rich and Poor?

This statement by Karl Marx has the power to destroy the current system of the economy. “The worker of the world has nothing to lose, but their chains, workers of the world unite.

From my understanding helping a poor person with money will only postpone their hunger. To have a true good impact on a person’s life, you need to teach them how to fish. And how do you do that?

By being an entrepreneur or being an employee.

You see Entrepreneurs and investors are Government's Partners. They create jobs. Creating a job creates employees and it’s good because it will help families to live paycheck to paycheck. It will help create that flow of money within a country to be valuable.

Now we are not going to touch the heated battle of being an entrepreneur or an employee. No judgment but to be able to feed your family with your job is a good thing. Especially the money you earned from your job. It’s secure and satisfying. That’s something I respect. But the way I interpret an entrepreneurs is they are the people who chose to be self-aware, humble and benevolent. It’s a life-long learning process. It’s not easy, but if an entrepreneur misses the key factor of “Contribution”, it’s gonna be a rat race of money and pleasure.

To sum it up, if we can focus not only on charity and also think about contributing to business and entrepreneurship. It will have a lasting effect on the woman I met in the streets of Kathmandu. Either she would have found a job or created a job. Every human has a spark of life and intelligence. It’s been recent months but it’s true. We are a piece of magic. I am looking to become a collector of these pieces. I want to shine diamonds like yourself.

I want to become a lapidary.

Thank you so much for being with me until the end. I wish my perspective can give you a better one. Luther Strange puts it perfectly, “A job is the best cure for poverty, and that’s why economic development and job creation has been my principal focus.”. Until next time, love you lots Chao.
