Cold heart cash

Cold Heart Ca$h 

      To quote the one and only Marilyn Monroe: Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. However, when it comes to relationships money remains a very sensitive subject maybe even a taboo for some.

      I have discussed in a previous post entitled: “Money the root of all evil “the subject of monetary power in the new world, but this post will solemnly focus on the actions and reaction of money in relationships and friendships.

    At the top of my head I can recommend separate accounts, both partners will split the costs of the household, rent, children expenses, etc… Nonetheless, each will keep a separate account for his personal needs, hobbies and so long. This is particularly efficient whether one party has a higher income or a lot of expenses. Women tend to spend more money on shopping while men will most probably splurge money in bars and cars. By having your own little savings account you’re able to indulge in your favorite pass times without getting into fights over personal expenses.

    This concept excludes gold diggers and sugar daddies: when you start spending money uncontrollably there will come a day when you might run out so good luck keeping that gold digger next you.

They will all take but never give; it’s a simple but sad truth. You may be torn between helping someone in need and the fact they might not repay you, therefore the dynamics or relation will inevitably change.

They say they will pay you back but never do, you help someone in need but when the table turns you might not find them there for  moral or financial support.

   Success and careers can be a double headed sword, when you find a job you actually like and excel at it you think they’ll be happy for you but sometimes you feel as if you’re being punished for finding a successful opportunity.

  Furthermore, in this situation I recommend both sides to be understanding, because in the end you stand together and his/her success is yours too. The main concern may be if they both work in the same field, then the competitiveness can become overwhelming and lead the couple to drift apart.

   In the end, no one should be the solemn bread provider in the family unit. It’s a mutual task and both partners help each other and strive forward.  It’s always a good idea to have pre established fine lines and to discuss all fiscal projects to be undertaken together.

For one simple reason, it’s not “our money “when it suits you and it’s “my money” when you want a personal item.

Money: the root of all evil

Money: the root of all evil

            “Money makes the world go round”, “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend” and so many more quotes… We’ve heard them over and over, but is money really the root of all evil?

            We as a society gave money its power and influence; otherwise it would have been a worthless piece of paper. What’s the difference between a Monopoly bill and a real bill? Both are papers, but one has become the center of the universe while the other remains a pretend game.

            From need and necessity corruption is born, when you find yourself in a situation where you are tempted to compromise your conscience it’s usually because of money. Most crimes are driven by the desire to acquire money, and what’s worse is when money makes you kill somebody.

            I find it sad that people think that money can buy happiness or that if you own a lot of money you can buy people off. It may work with the weak and people with no dignity but for those who are proud and have a self esteem it will never work. 

     When you're rich it won't be an easy task finding who your real friends are and those who are materialistic and in pursuit of your assets. It may open new doors but it might as well open trap doors.

          I you have a 1000$ you’ll find a way to spend it, and if you have one million dollars you will also easily find a way to spend it. When your income increases, your needs will increase but eventually become stable. We’re all greedy as human beings, we always want more and the more you get the more you need.

          Don’t let money become an obsession because it will eat you up. Always yearning for more, keep in mind it’s just a commodity to acquire your basic needs. We have seen so money TV and movie starts committing suicide, did money truly buy happiness?

       We have seen the virtue being corrupted blindly by money from politicians to religious man driven to the edge of insanity. So be careful what you wish for, because in one way or the other it will turn around and hurt you in some way. 

       Finally, only few self made millionaires will understand the value of hard work and money for they had to make an effort to gain it not just inherited it. Think for one second of the poor and in need and you’ll see how rich you are.

Rich to have your health, family, friends, loved one, education, career and so much more.
