Topic: Isn't it all about money? - page 2. (Read 2598 times)

I  totally agree with you, this is one of the biggest problem we a facing in Africa as a whole. In most advanced countries let take Europe as an example, a lot of individuals are doing very much well without even going to school  or not even having a tertiary education. In Africa we believe so much in school, like our parent believes you have made it in life already when you able to complete a tertiary education. I have a friend who never wanted to go school after his secondary education. He told me he just want to engage in selling car part. His parent didn’t like that ideas and did not even support him with capital to start that business. Due to lack of capital he later went back to school and his parent paid his school fees during those for years. After several years of completing his tertiary education with no job, he was able to gather capital for the business through friends and family contributions and personal hustle. I think his business is about 4 years old now and he is doing very well for himself and also taking care of his parent and family. All I’m saying his if his family had supported him with capital since when he wanted to start the business he will be doing far better now. African parents need to start listening to their kids and also supporting their dreams. It not actually about going to school because at the end it about who is doing well financially in life.

I think in places like Africa why money is actually considered to be the road to wealth is because most African countries are under developing economy and you can’t have a reasonable work if you don’t go to school, but in advance countries working in the sport sector can make you be a millionaire if not a billionaire. Let take the footballers for example, they make millions every months without even going to school, and not to talk of endorsements deals they get. Nike, puma, Adidas also pay them for wearing their products too. So I will always say it “Pick a dream and chase” especially in Africa.

Every person who works, of course they will still think about how to get an income that can meet their needs and if there is anything left over from the needs they need then they can save and invest so that their future does not experience financial difficulties, when someone who have completed their education but don't yet have a job. I think what they learn at school will be very different in terms of application in the field, so it's not certain that those with good understanding will be able to easily get a job and this really depends on a person's personality to be able to apply what they learn at school. and indeed it would be better for us to see what potential we have, whether we are studying or continuing to look for work and can learn from existing experiences.

True that there is limitation to what money can buy, specifically life, and there are sickness that money cannot cure. Aside that bro money is actually very important because there is no way you can do anything or even survive in this world without money. True that money does not give actual happiness but give you excitement and access to what ever you want to buy talk of luxury and comfort money will give you full access. And when you have money especially a lot of money it will come a time that you will feel like your lacking something. It is better to give meaning to life than just money, make friends have fun be kind and treat people well, that is what we call life not just buying and spending. Make people happy and help does you can.

Education is not intended for us to get rich quickly, but education is a provision for us to be able to find a path that can lead us to something good. However, the problem is that now there are many people who misinterpret education, for example in my environment there are many parents who still say to give their children a high education so that they can easily get a decent job and in my opinion that is an inappropriate mindset.
Here a person's strong desire must also not be forgotten, because I see that some successful people are people who work hard with unyielding effort. Even though many are successful because of the privilege of being born into a rich family, for example, they just need to continue what their family has.

All our strogle in this world is just all about making money and be a better person tomorrow because anything that we are doing today we do it for future. sometimes going to school is better but it depends on your destiny, because sometimes when you graduate from school after spending almost 6 years in the school and when you came back home you will not see job, so for me I think if one can see where he/she can make money before thinking of going school is better.

Are we saying a degree is some kind of fake promise? hat paper isn't everything. It's about effort, skill development, and effort. The game is continuously changing, and the world is different now. Education isn't simply about career preparation; it's about developing quick-thinking skills

You claim school's about information, not money? In our economy, knowledge is power. How you use knowledge, think outside the box, create agreements, and discover solutions is more important than memorising facts. Can you get rich without a degree? Yes, some do. These are outliers. Let's not pretend that illiteracy leads to achievement. Being smart, driven, and adaptable mentally is key

Everyone needs money, in everyday life it costs money, the costs come from money, money is not everything, but everything needs money, even urinating and defecating you have to pay with money, those are the costs in everyday life, children's costs, wife's costs and self's costs. .

When we talk about money, there is no end to it, we work hard just to earn money, for our daily needs, in everyday life we ​​spend a lot of money for our needs, especially when we have a family, so we are smart enough to save money so we can invest so that our finances will be better in the future.

Life it's self is all about money, everything it's all about money being alive today is all about money but it's only the air that we breaths that doesn't cost a dem, what's the essence that we're giving birth for it's to fight for our future and the future involves money so everything it's all about the money. All I know is that struggle the sleepless nights the moment of being alive it's about money because we got responsibilities.

Even in the people Judas betrayed Jesus it's all about the money, we all have a professional and we're all doing that just to earn for a living but without our profession we can't earn a dem our sheather we live today it's build with money, the schools etc it's all about money. So let's be sincere here the life we live today it's money itself.

The thing is that some went to school just to get the certificate not necessarily that they will use the certificate to work in any company or firm and again some persons went to school to fulfill their parents wish not their wish but I must tell you that many people in the school is not after what they will the certificate to do because the world is evolving and the certificate is not really needed what's is now needed is what you can offer practically to companies and that's is the only criteria to get yourself a job any where, op I won't deceive you school is good but not really to become weathy but only to acquire the knowledge and allow school to pass through you for you to be versatile and learn how to approch people and have a good conversation with individuals but note it is not a most that you must be educated before you make money.

Sometimes there are people who think like that, but not many because it is just a process whose aim is to earn money. Serving as a doctor or teacher for society is not always sincere because if it were not for money, not everyone would want to do that.
That's realistic and it must be acknowledged.
Regarding the process that goes through for reasons of learning and whatever, I think it's just nonsense, we are talking about education, not religion.

Money is not everything and not everything can be valued in the form of money, but we also have to be realistic, regarding humanity and also education is something that all humans need to be able to get and there are many volunteers who care about that so they are willing to make sacrifices, I admit that but from what they went through when they first started seeking knowledge was for money and survival.

All this means that you will devote yourself to the welfare of humanity by studying and acquiring the right knowledge - that is the main objective. You can get a taste of real education if you study in a good institution and under the influence of right religious knowledge. Whether you are an engineer doctor or any professional you need the right knowledge, and to gain knowledge you need to go outside the house and that is possible only through hard work.

You can't value everything in terms of money because the children of people with a lot of money can't get proper education and the children of people with very less money are highly educated and engaged in human service and earning money as well. But you shouldn't just take money as the main thing here because if that were the case then there would be no sense of humanity in the society - everyone would do everything for money.

It has been said that money can't buy everything and you can't realize everything in exchange for money.  Because with money you can never achieve happiness. With money you may be able to express temporary happiness but you can never do that in your mind.  Yes, given money or lack of self-will can fulfill many wishes and which you write down and temporarily do not get.  With money, you can grow your business. In business, you can invite money. You can achieve everything yourself. You can achieve success.  Suppose you have money but no happiness or your family is not happy in that case your money is useless.  No good or no price.  You need money to achieve but sometimes you need money to achieve happiness.

true, for a lot of people, the end goal is often about financial stability and success, and there are so many paths to get there. It’s absolutely okay to feel that traditional routes like higher education or mastering certain skills might not be for everyone.
Success is very personal, and if you can achieve it on your own terms, that’s a huge win. You’re right,ultimately it’s about finding what works for you and making the most of it without feeling pressured to fit a standard mold.

but it also depends on the rich person, because there are rich people who make other people slaves by ordering them to carry out unreasonable or inhumane actions, so that they don't think about other people's feelings because they only think about themselves who really want to be happy when they see other people do his bidding even if it lowers the other person's self-esteem. However, there are also rich people who are not reckless in ordering other people, but they really pay attention and respect other people's self-esteem.

In my opinion, there are still many ways to be successful, don't just depend on someone, we do need help in life but that doesn't mean we have to continue to depend on other people, that's not the goal of life. For me, if I really get a job that lowers my self-esteem, then I would rather just leave than stay with self-esteem that is not appreciated.

If that statement is true, for those who are already comfortable with the income they get, it is enough to meet their needs, maybe they will not easily develop, because they are already comfortable and feel fulfilled and that is their own right. Because it is also impossible if they are forced to have more than one job, it's just that if they really want a lot of income then they must be able to balance it by having more than one job. And as you said with those who like challenges, they will indeed do new things that have the potential to generate profits. And I think people like this do not want wealth but indeed if they like new things then they will always be happy and enthusiastic in running new things.

With a young age, we must be able to make the best use of it. Learning many rights is not a loss, because it will also have results if we can take advantage of it. And in my opinion, success is in those who want to work hard and also have strong determination.

A lot depends on what job you work in, in what country, and so on. You can work 8 hours a day to earn much more than the average entrepreneur earns, and you don’t have to worry about paying taxes, and many other issues that an entrepreneur must think about constantly, even during non-working hours.

There are positive and negative sides to every business, some people like to be an entrepreneur, others find it easier to go to work and get paid, but I first mentioned that it matters where you work, because in one country the salary can be 500 dollars, and in another 5,000 dollars, that’s the whole difference, but the country’s standard of living will most likely allow you to live with an average salary, and the person will decide for himself whether this is enough for him, or whether he wants more.

When you have a desire like that it can also give rise to different judgments in the eyes of other people because you also want to enslave other people to work for your company so that you can feel pleasure from it, right? Even though it is based on their own desires, I don't think it is necessary to say that they are slaves because they also want to try with the version that they themselves understand in their life. So there is no need to hope that other people can have the same desires as you because everyone has different desires and this can also change over time or when your friends have graduated from that university.

In terms of what you say, it's good, but it's only good for yourself, even though in general you also have room to help other people by giving them work. But when you say that people who work for other people are slaves, it will also lead to yourself wanting to employ other people in your company so that it gives the impression that you also want to make other people your slaves.

well indeed some people out there are quite judgemental, even though its absolutely fine working 9-5 not all people are cut it for entrepreneurship some just want to work and enjoy life.
for those kind of people pursuing career by working 9-5 is nothing wrong, they enjoy it too, after all entrepreneurship or even investment is more difficult than what it seems.

I've seen plenty of people that enjoy working 9-5 because they just love the job themselves and willing to go work overtime and be fine with it even without increase in salary over the course of the year committing to the company they worked in and be fine with it, sometime life is not all about salary and I do agree, do whatever we find pleasing.

also, this rat race thing is just not really a thing, some people that thinks they are in a rat race working 9-5 simply put just don't enjoy their lives, they are too fixated in earning money that they forgot that there are something more than earning money, of course i could be wrong in this regard but at least thats what I viewed so far.

Wow that is such a capitalistic statement. To say that there is no other choice but for us to be enslaved by those richer than us is quite unmotivating to be honest. Lots of people myself included wouldn’t want to spend the rest of our lives being tied to our bosses and their silly orders that are sometimes dehumanizing.

There are other ways to succeed in life without having to sacrifice your own pride.

It's true that most people want a job that can give them an income throughout their life and receive a retirement salary from where they work and I don't think there's anything wrong with this, but that type of person will find it very difficult to develop and they can only get one income. to be able to fulfill their needs and for those who like challenges of course they will try something that interests them and if they are successful in that field of course this will enable them to enjoy the results of what they have done.

If you want to open a company, of course this is very possible because you are still young and still have the opportunity to learn about the business you are starting and will be able to build the business by employing other people and I am very sure you will be successful in this business.
