MONEY OR YOUR LIFE.
Chapter Sixteen.
WHY THOSE WHO WILL SUFFER MOST FROM MONETARY REFORM WILL BE BETTER OFF.
The most valued possession of any human being is his self respect.
However glamorous the respect of others may be, we count that as nought if we lose our own personal private respect for ourselves.
No amount of drugs, alcohol, sex or gold plated stretch limos will compensate a man for the loss of his own self respect.
We all like to be right and none of us likes to be made wrong. These are symptoms of our desire to maintain our self respect.
We can get crazy enough to kill ourselves in suicide in order to maintain our self respect.
The Japanese for example have had this ritual down to a fine art.
We don't like to fail and we jump out of windows when failure seems to become overwhelming.
Another of our human characteristics is the rather less obvious fact that the senior pleasure to which any of us can aspire is to successfully help another. We may have tunnel vision and imagine that another must be a close relative or friend or even an accomplice, but that characteristic is always there however puny or even distorted it may be.
Therefore the hyper rich who use the most subtle and clever tricks to cream off the wealth created by others, know in their heart of hearts that they are selling themselves cheap and violating their truest instincts.
They will be a lot happier when they are true to themselves and contribute to the common good instead of merely sponging off it.
Have no fear for the well being of the filthy rich for they will come clean and rejoice.
They may snarl a bit in the process, but who cares.
