What If Money Don't Exist.........

I totally agree with you Jasfur. I am stuck in doing something that I do not love.

Hi Jazz,

Money? What's that? LOL   I see so little of it I can hardly remember what it looks like, but I'm fine.

Despite that my job here in Brazil pays very little, I wouldn't change for all the money in the world. I've been a teacher both in Canada and here and I love my job. I'd do it even if I didn't get paid.

Cheers,
James

I love to travel a lot, so I don't really save...I am still seeking for my passion after giving up on achieving a medical degree. Though money is not a want for me, it's still a NEED. To begin with, I require money to travel.

Plus, can you imagine the drop in donation rates if money no longer exists? Not everyone of us always carry diamond rings around to hand over to the homeless (still common in developing countries like Myanmar). Money has some value, which you can use effectively to improve the welfare of everyone (sometimes including yourself, e.g. bribing a traffic-police after you have "accidentally" crossed a red light and you still have a meeting to arrive on time.) There are uncountable reasons still left to support that Money is a necessity!

If money did not exist, someone would create it to control people.

Money is the most useless useful thing in the world right now. Apart from being a medium of exchange it offers no other benefits. It is a control system. It creates classes among people and encourages poverty.

Money was created as the barter system, ie. exchanging one good for another, which was not a very satisfactory means of trade as either the traders already possessed the goods the other person was offering, or did not like what was on offer by him/her.

Hence, money was created in order to provide value to an individual's produce as he/she had worked hard to produce it. However, these days most of the stuff is manufactured via machines. The machines have replaced the people and most of the work for them. So, what value are we paying for? The machine's hard work?

The best brains in economics have not found a replacement for money. They have invented other forms of money. They have even simplified different territories to use a common currency. To completely do away with money... what would the whole world be working for?
BTW to answer your question, you are paying for the operator's wages to run the machine. The interest cost to purchase the machine. The rent to house the machine. The raw materials to for the machine to manufacture into something you and I can use. Those are the simple costs immediately identifiable. It is also related to the cost of fish in tomorrowland.

there was a saying "money is the root of all evil," but the fact is human using it inappropriately against human. Maybe to anyone it's just a little thing but how about the needy for them money is life.......

is VISA or MASTERCARD still can be used?

They check your criminal record before they allow you into Narnialand. If you have account outstanding, Narnialiand will NO-NO to your visa.
Asguard will cut up your passport and ask you to walk back.

That's why it's the love of money is the root of all evil.

"I really need to get out of here as fast as possible and the money is actually material that I hate," my friends said to me....

I am already suffering from the thrill of waiting on what comes next on my fave TV series, hope our salary won't be delay cause the thrill of waiting might end of becoming a thriller......

If there wasn't money there will be something else that will be used to trade between people, so it may as well be colored pieces of paper.

Or shiny coins.

exchanging foods 

Well, what can I say but life would be soooooo much simpler

if money doesnt exist, there will be no boss, no prostitute, no beggar, no church, no stock market, no internet, no car, no oil, no polictics, etc...

Everyone then will be friendly friends and the world will be garden of eden.

well that sounds great to me......

This world would be heaven if there is no money because all the problems in our life is just due to the reason that we are running so fast to gain the money. Every problem like robery, killing, and many more crimes are just due to money. There would be peace, and justice in this world if God remove the concept of money from our universe.

Thank you for pointing out the "Elephant in the Room."

That is so refreshing....    

I am a very average person, in that I work long hours at a job I am tired of. My body wants to move around more than a ten hour day in a windowless cubicle cleaning teeth will allow. I could not afford to make my dream come true (a small homestead to create and grow in).

But every day I pray for guidance, for help, for the ability to become a better person. Pretty average stuff.

I never went without food in my life, but I have lived without hope for many years.

Things began to change in December. The only way I could describe it is that I feel like I am molting. Of course, since I "live" at the office, all my friends are there. There is no energy left for personal relationships. And these folks live to watch "The Bachelor" and talk about it every day at lunch. They have no clue what I am talking about. But they are good people, and I love them. The office is a happy, prosperous Prison.

Molting is an uncomfortable process. And it leaves you oh so vulnerable. But you cannot help but grow, you are not the One in control.

In January I found myself doing and saying things that were very uncharacteristic. I could not hide anymore, and I could not tolerate my "Rut." I began to take action to change my future.

One step leads to another, and I now describe this as my "Yellow Brick Road." Who knew?

I suspect the "Guy upstairs" (or is He hidden deep inside us?) has taken matters into his own hands and is my benevolent Guide.
Or probably it is simply that I have given up and let go of the reigns, so He can finally do something to help me.

At any rate, I am now in the process of change, both inner and outer, that is an unavoidable part of Letting/Making your dreams come true.

The tool that I was handed appears deceptively shallow. But the person who handed it to me is a pillar of character, a humble leader and teacher, and a solid businesswoman. There was no risk, and unlimited potential. One more step on my Yellow Brick Road...

I have not begun to understand all the good we can create in our personal world and the greater outer world with this tool. Every morning I wake up with new ideas on how I can apply it, and there is a smile on my face.

My motto when confronted by limiting ideas has always been that I never want to belong to an exclusive club. Special interests are good, but there is power in numbers, and cameraderie. When I think of Humanity, I see a field of poppies, brushed by the wind, and I also see millions of beautiful and unique individual flowers.

The Ripple business concept is not new, but it is refined, expanded, and designed to fund itself. It is a distribution channel for good, services, and ideas. I love the ideas part. For people who have no background in business models or basic network marketing, it looks suspicious. Just like in Permaculture, you work hard to create an elegant system, and then you work it, you tweak it, you live it.

I am still not accustomed to the indifference and sometimes hostility I encounter from people I respect and care about when I offer them this gift.

There is nothing we fear more than not getting what we want... than getting it.

And then again, I am offering them something they have never seen before, and it is easier to dismiss it than risk change of any kind.

So here is a link to my page , where you can take a look. This is by invitation only, one person at a time, so if you want one, you can request it there, or simply email me.

This is how I am funding my homestead, my charitable projects, my retirement, and whatever else the Big Guy has set up along my Yellow Brick Road....

Let's put some cash in the hands of the common man, and change our world into one we want to leave to our children.

If money don't exist we would had make troc "materials exchange" Is what man make before money apparition.
