Winners or Losers?

There´s a great deal of things you can relate to these two nouns. Nonetheless, to most people, what comes to mind is the money factor.Now, I´d like to clarify this: Because money is a means of exchange for goods, services or commodities you need, it becomes a great power, mostly misused.





In itself, money is just a token of trade. The power bestowed upon it,relies on the interests of the traders. The trader with more money has more power, thus he/she defines the rules of the trade. Bear with me as I´m not trying to prove any economics theory here. Far from it, I´m trying to establish the consequences of money´s misused power.

Money can buy fame, goods,services, protection, defense, votes, sex, and favors, almost anything but love. Whosoever dares say that money can buy love is as lost as a polar bear on a tropical island. True prosperity, which is originated in selfless love, is not about winning or losing. It´s about giving.


Believe it or not, there are many wealthy people who know not the meaning of true prosperity. Let me put it to you this way: Money is a good servant when properly and kindly used, but it´s a cruel, addictive master when it isn´t. That´s the reason it goes so well with human greed.
