MONEY MAKING 101

Money, money, money. Money is one of the major subjects to study in life. Why? Because, a good continuous education about money could lead to a life of enjoyment and possible happiness. While, no education about money could lead to a life of struggle financially, anxiety and possible sadness.

Money is not a subject that is discussed by everybody freely; in fact, many people and families around the world may even view discussing about money as evil. A person talking freely about money may be viewed as materialistic, be envied and view as evil.

Why is the subject of money so controversial? And why do many people prefer not to learn about money, choosing to go through life learning things the hard way-through trial and error, the school of hard knocks?

In my own opinion there should be a subject called money making 101 (development your street smart ability), in every elementary school, given every generation of children a strong foundation about money.

Although, many teachers are doing good, teaching the academic perspective of money, it’s origin and history. But, more information should be provided to understand the value of money, how to control money, how to save money, how to invest money, how to shield money and how to share money. Each, being a school of thought on its own how to value money, how to save money, how to invest money how to shield money and how to share money will be discussed in subsequent articles.

Understanding money could make you truly rich, but some people may say they don’t want to be rich. However, they may spend 3-4 painful years in the university studying hard to get a job and when they get a job, they work round the clock plus they constantly harass their employers for a rise and they say they don’t want to be rich. Well, their actions are louder than their words. Hope, I’m not being too rude.

In conclusion, many of life’s pleasures or misery comes from knowing something or nothing about money.
