Where is my Money part 2

With this article we will examine how the flow of money which is like current,can flow from other peoples pocket to your pocket voluntarily.

What is money? Literarily money is a means of exchange. It could be exchange of product for product, or product for service or service for service. This implies you must come to the table with something, you must offer something in exchange. This simple law apply to vices such as prostitution etc. This is the singular reason arm robbers come with guns to take it by force because nobody is willing to let go of it just like that, unless they get something in return. Money according to its creators is an IOU guaranteed to be paid by tax payers of the issuing country. Money is only as good as long as the people have confidence in the government backing it. Though it was formerly backed by gold but all that have changed. Money is only money because of the confidence people have in it. That was why the coins are no more in Nigeria, just because Nigerians will not do business with it no matter how well the government promoted it. So you must learn that to attract money you must demonstrate confidence, self esteem. And others must have confidence in your abilities.

From this one can conclude that money is not the paper we carry about, it is actually abstract. The paper is just a symbol, a material to quantify or express our confidence, our values, our skill, and our wealthy. Imagine you are traveling to the USA and carry a plane load of N1, 000 naira notes. If you do not come cross another Nigerian that has equal amount of dollars and willing to exchange you may end up being stranded in USA because your naira note is worthless there. But if you go there with a ship load of diesel, you will make more friends than enemies. So we understand why dollar is valuable, it is because Americans are productive,creative people. Bill gates is the world richest man because he created Microsoft software that solves a universal problem. If the Chinese over take them in worthy then their currency dominates the dollars. That is why your makers said you should multiply dominate and subdue the earth.

So if I need money, what do I do? I go for value, skills etc.
I will have to learn how to create multiply, dominate and subdue.

How do I attract money?
Matt 25: 14-29. “Once upon a time 3 Nigerian graduates full of life, after they had completed their NYSC went job hunting. After searching for a while the best among them who graduated with a first class in engineering landed lot of job offers, but he chose one of them which is to work with an oil firm. He was being paid N300, 000 a month. The second with a second upper division after attending a few interviews finally was employed @ a bank to be paid N150, 000 naira a month. The last person eventually landed a job at a start up company which was paying him N35, 000 a month.
After 20 years the first class graduate runs his own company and has accumulated lot of wealth ; the other man that worked with the bank, now has his own stock booking firm and likewise accumulated substantial wealth. The last man had to retire from his places of work, tried his hand on business he failed. So he retired to the village to avoid the shame of the city.”
