TEACHING CHILDREN

TEACHING CHILDREN ABOUT MONEY

Suffer the Little Children

All parents and most adults teach children about money. There is a standing myth that the poor and most minorities do not advise their children further than, “save your money.” Usurers were widely used in past history we who grew up in the United States have all heard or read Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice and know of Shylock. 

A better idea came when those who wanted to gather that savings and put it to work for you at a cost (thereby gathering profit) came up with Banks. Banks, however, are now not regulated to the point where citizens are satisfied that Banks in tandem with Wall Street will not create a World Wide Economic Crash.

NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY, IT IS ALL ABOUT MONEY

Money is basically Math. Humanity teaches all children that money is math whether it is how much you pay for an ice cream cone to how much change you expect to get back when you buy a loaf of bread for 5¢ when you have paid 25¢.

Not all men and women are passionate in obtaining a thorough education for the purpose of making themselves rich and hoarding their money. 

And all entrepreneurs are not just selling humanity what belongs to humanity like water; making themselves and their investors profit from the labor of others.

We all know that not all wealthy families hate the poor. The rich and wealthy live away from the poor neighborhoods because when a family is affluent it is targeted and it must protect its possessions and home against burglary by criminals, gangs, and kidnappers. They move to areas that are a stronghold for families like theirs.

The problems are the societies that create burglars, gangs, and kidnappers (criminals). It is relatively easy to rid humanity of the problems. It demands, however, ridding ourselves of what lies we live by and what has been taught us in our formative years. Because society creates the circumstances that put in place the desperate, shameful conditions of humanities existence. 

It can easily reverse the circumstance and prevent the existence of the elements the affluent run from. Give it some thought and it will come to you as a revelation of what is being created by those sinister within our society today.

More of humanity has compassion for others then the number of individuals trying to corrupt our governments by buying and selling their loyalty. Not all wealthy individuals and families are associated with an aggressive move to control the world or set up some single global government. 

A number of millionaires and billionaires give much of their profits to charity.

You have heard by now that Sting has said he will not leave his six children an inheritance. He goes on to explain that his children rarely ask him for anything and know they have to work.

Sting is an extraordinarily realistic man for our age. It could be that he made the effort to raise his children to become self-sufficient. And just as he did, find a creative niche or learn to adapt their capabilities and talents to any career choice they made. He could not have been more correct in preparing them for the future if he had been holding a crystal ball. Many billionaires are now leaving their wealth to charities instead of their children. Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerburg, Warren Buffett, Michael Bloomberg, Andrew Loyd Webber, and Pierre Omidyar.

The future demands that children not be hampered from becoming rich or acquiring a fortune on their own. However, it is what they are told to do with their money by their parents and their peers that will make the world what humanity wants to make of it.

Most wealthy families we are familiar with in America raise their children to donate to charities not only because of the tax deduction but for the self-esteem it produces in them and the spiritual gratification of contributing to humanities progress. Donations are Noble hoarding is not. No one needs so much money when they only use it to enslave and look down on others.

In each generation, children from all spectrum's of our societies will need to hold the idea of contributing to charities is keeping humanity from dying from hunger, illiteracy, and war, by keeping that thought close to their heart.

Realistically we must understand that not all children nor all men and women will hold fast to this ideal. We presently have to deal with men and women who would ignore a commitment to humanity. This in itself should not surprise anyone for we have had to live among the selfish throughout the history of humanity.

Money to be used for the common good demands realistic economic systems that will not horde enormous sums for the purpose of distorting or denying progress into abusive systems that deny the freedoms of other humans.

 For centuries holy men drove people insane telling followers and whole races that their creator told them they should destroy their enemy. They are still telling us that now. If holy men believe in spirit, may it grab them by the throat now and make them realize; that the entity would rather burn a holy man in hell then have them preach hate by telling their followers to go to war against sin instead of teaching what good can be harvest by teaching love and the tolerance of others through example. 

It is important for us to see that no one should control large segments of our religious societies by having them follow false prophets.
