I have been reading some of the posts here. I understand everyone is entitled to their own opinions and I respect that. I am finding some of the responses can be harsh. Sure we all try very hard to protect ourselves from being scammed. Yes they are out there.
I have been thinking alot lately on where I have been in my life. I started out good in life. Got married raised my children got into debt. Got a handle on my debt. Things were going well. Found jobs lost jobs. I have been on both sides of the stick. Been at the bottom worked my way up to the top had lots of money in my time. Made wrong choices in my life heck my house could have been paid for. I would be living debt free. It all boils down to the choices we make in life and how our attitude is when things start to go downhill. I had money and really living well bills were always paid on time. Bought my toys that I wanted. I had it all. Yes I would have catagorized myself among the rich. But what people do not realize is the sacrafices and the decissions we had to make to get to that point in our lives. I personally sold many of items and stuck it into a business venture. I also had to work 12 hours daily and sleep during the day cause it was from 4 in afternoon till 7 to 8 in morning. Still enjoyed life. Life was good. People who knew us suddenly we saw their envy look at them look at what they all have. They should share their wealth and give some of it to help others. We sure found out who our friends truly were. Personally I gave my fair share but I did not have to tell about it. I believe we could all have what we truly want. Yes some are limited. But there is never the amount of money that we could make that is limited. I think for some is they put a limit on their potential. I find we are always blaming other people of some bad choices that we have made. I lost my major job contract from my business but it was not just the company that I had been contracted to that I ended up where I have fallen to. It was myself to blame as well. Had I put money away when I was making it instead of thinking the well would not go dry then I would be in a totally different place right now. So here I am sharing in hopes that one can learn from some of the bad choices that I have made in my life. Things are good now. Things will be alot better. We will be on top again. Life has lessons along the way and I sure learned mine. I am here to give an uplift. Like on one post I read a hand up not a hand out. Although when I see one in need and that hand out will truly help them to get in a better position than I will also do for I have been on both sides. We must not look harshly at the people who have money. They may have money but are they happy. We don't know how some think. To be honest with you I love being around them so I could learn from them. I may not have money at this time but I sure am rich. Love to hear your thoughts.
