There is a strong link, in today's world, between money and power. Now, the power of what?.
Once, I read a tip given by a father to his son and said something like, "from time to time, take a bill from your wallet and looking it intently say: This bill is mine. Thus let it clear which of both is the owner. "
People seem to have lost, after so long, the true sense of the existence of the money that is no longer a means to become an end.
One night we walked with my nine year old niece who had given her for her birthday a bill of fifty. I was surprised when she said, "I wish to have one hundred".
I, who knew she did not have much idea of money, asked her what it was for. And I was not surprised with the response, she just said: "to have one."
So I took the opportunity and made this pose:
Imagine that at the moment you start to feel hungry, you have a hundred but no one will change it for food, what do you do?.
She replied, "I can not even eat because it is toxic."
That is the value of money. None. The money is only worth when you trade it for something. The value is in the people, the important "thing" is people, it is to them to have to assess over your money.
