Is Your Mindset Keeping You Poor?

What's keeping you poor? What's keeping you from achieving your goals and dreams? Is it your job? Is it your family or is it you? Do you find yourself constantly struggling with money? Do you always find there's more days in the month than there is money? Check your wallet, do you see cobwebs in it? If you are constantly having money issues no matter how hard you work, the problem may be you. Your mindset about money could be that's keeping you poor. Basically, you have a poor man's mentality. What do I mean by that? It means that if you believe you don't deserve to have a lot of money, then your subconscious mind is going to do everything to keep you from keeping money. It's going to sabotage you every time you come into a lot of money. Whether from working or winning the lottery. You may be saying, "that's not true, I want to have a lot of money".

The Money Masters

Image
THE MONEY MASTERS is a historical documentary that traces the origins of the political power structure. The modern political power structure has its roots in the hidden manipulation and accumulation of gold and other forms of money. The development of fractional reserve banking practices in the 17th century brought to a cunning sophistication the secret techniques initially used by goldsmiths fraudulently to accumulate wealth. With the formation of the privately-owned Bank of England in 1694, the yoke of economic slavery to a privately-owned "central" bank was first forced upon the backs of an entire nation, not removed but only made heavier with the passing of the three centuries to our day. Nation after nation has fallen prey to this cabal of international central bankers.

Here is a good documentary called "Money As Debt". It explains the modern banking/debt-money system. It's important to know the history of money and how money is created. As you probably see or read in the news, we are hearing debt crisis and bailouts left and right. This video will provide you the financial education necessary to understand why the world is so messed up right now about debts.

Silly Symphony by Walt Disney, 1935. Story of King Midas where everything he touches turns into gold. What lesson can be learned from this video?

Spare Change

What do you do with your spare change? Do you put them in a jar and leave it there? Do you know how much spare change you have? I used to give my son my spare change of anything under a dollar and when we counted it a few months later. He had over $50 in change. I went to the bank and got some free coin rolls. Yes, it's free, you don't have to buy them. Banks will give you some for free. We packed the coins and put it into his savings account. Image courtesy of Coins of the World Don't just leave your change lying around. Count it and invest it or pay down your debts. It's better than sitting idle in a jar. You may have more money than you think.

To Be Wealthy, Always Carry Cash

One thing I've learned about wealth is that it is a frame of mind. If you feel wealthy, you will eventually attract wealth and become wealthy. One of the best ways to feel wealthy is to actually carry cash. Technology is amazing especially with regards to how we pay and carry money. You can pay your bills by credit card, debit cards, cellphone, pre-paid cards, etc. In some cases, you just tap a card on a terminal and it's paid. We feel that we're always connected to our money that if you ask a majority of people, a lot of them don't carry cash anymore especially young people. You see a wallet full of credit cards but no cash. There's a lot of benefit in carrying actual cash. For one, you can easily keep to your budget since you know that if you have no more cash, there's no more money to spend. It gives you an immediate visual cue as to how wealthy you are. Cash also gives you a psychological feeling of wealth compared to a plastic card. Besides, most pl...

Lessons About Money In the Bible

Image
The Bible has many lessons regarding wealth. The one I like most is the Parable of Talents. The parable tells of a master who was leaving his home to travel, and before going, entrusted his property to his servants. One servant receives five talents, the second two talents, and the third one talent, according to their respective abilities. I found a video that tells this story very well. Putting the religious lesson aside, the Parable of Talent teaches that one should have respect for money and make money work for you to let it grow. If you give money the respect it deserves, you will be richly rewarded. However, if you are lazy and let your money stagnate or keep it under your mattress, you will have the same amount of money and it will eventually lose it just like Hod, the last servant in the video. Like the master said, if Hod was not willing to risk the money, he should have at least given the money to the bankers so that the master would have earned interest on it. Inste...
