MY LIFE AS A BILLIONAIRE

If only life was as simple as it’s made up in fairytales, I would have built my kingdom on an island with beautiful flowers and grass all over; grown my own food and an animal farm with all sorts of animals that qualify to be meat. I would have molded my own perfect man out of fine black clay: his eyes like an ocean of love; his hair, so refreshing like a horse’s mane; his body built strongly with muscles and beautiful legs. Oh… My children… My children would have grown in a paradise; played with birds, butterflies, and fairies. They would have…

Oh… wake up! Cut the crap! Life is not as simple as a fairytale. In the physical, “Money” is the captain of all ships. If you miss that guy, even for a day, your world will start crashing down on you like a broken mansion.

Sometimes I ask: since when did life become so difficult; since when did living become so expensive; since when did money become the vital essence of survival; since when did it gain so much value in human existence?

Now, see what it is doing to us: The love of money is tearing families apart; greed is pushing best friends to the edge. Now, people care less about what their dubious means of getting money is doing to others. They don’t mind stealing from, even, the poorest person. Thieves used to walk and steal on the streets but now, the most experienced thieves appear in suits and ties; drive the latest Bugatti Chirons and hold the greatest armory: a pen and paper.

  

Love is losing its essence in society because it has also been lowered in standards to the extent that it is measured by 'how much money I'll get from this deal'. Wives are dragging their husbands through the mud and husbands are treading on dangerous grounds because they just can’t get enough.

Whoever introduced “Mr. Money” meant no harm, I’m sure. Why, then, have we allowed it to influence our lives so deeply?

Every youth, these days, aspires to be a billionaire but many want to avoid the hustle. Life is good when you’ve got enough money: that’s a fair statement. But life is best when you got all that money out of a clean conscience.  

 
Think about it.
