Hi all. It's been awhile since I was here.

I posted this essay on another tribe but I feel that it will also have value here.

A lot of good things have been said about money.

This is not going to be one of those essays.

Nothing has such wide appeal as MONEY.

Somewhere the parallell of money to abundance has been altered and most of the world is in the dark about this.

Some of those who know and understand arent telling because of obvious reasons. The rest who do know and are telling are regarded as chicken littles or outright enemies of prosperity.

I stand firmly in the second group regardless of what others think of me.

New Age spiritual manifesters will tell you that there is more than enough money for all of us. That more money for all of us means increased prosperity and abundance for all of us.

Economics 101 says an increase in money in a society results in a drop in value of said money. We see it as Inflation.

Lets look at money then. The only currency that is legal tender is FIAT money.
What IS fiat money then?

Fiat money is that which is not backed by any commodity or precious metals but is legislated to be accepted as payment for value.

If fiat money is not backed by any rare and precious metal or commodity, where then does it come from?

It is written into existence by banks. It is written as loans.
MEANING then that money starts as debt. Once the debt is paid the money ceases to exist.
Money today is debt, pure and simple. Nothing else.

If you are still reading you are either angry at me for being a heretic or saying "what the *****!"

If youre still here, take heart for fortune favors the brave.

Money in fact stands directly between us and our true abundance. Yes, we can gather a little here and there for ourselves, even do good things with it to enhance abundance for ourselves and for others. Feed our families, send them to school, give to the less fortunate.

The history of money is long and sordid. There have been banking enterprises that were honest when money was in fact backed by commodity or precious metals. But the combination of ignorance of the general public and the greed for the easy profit of writing money into existence always won out. And true money disappeared.

Central banks primarily write money into existence as loans to national governments. Governments use said money for public services, wages, self interests and wars. War is such a great money maker for those who back both sides. That is, write money/debt into existence.

Smaller national banks write money into existence as personal loans, mortages etc. Their fractional reserve is barely enough to respond to depositors choosing to withdraw their money.

Meaning that once again huge amounts of money enter society. Economics 101, again says that increase in money in a society leads to the devaluation of that money. The problem with inflation is that it strikes those hardest who can bear it least. Those on low income, fixed income and wages.

An argument to this is that as prices increase so do wages so it evens out. But it does not address the fact that the savings or equity that you put into your house last year has less value than it does this year.

If inflation bites you hard enough you will either find yourself reborrowing or homeless. If inflation bites your place of work hard enough you will find yourself jobless too.
ALL because of an increase in money. Which is an increase in debt.

If you have neither home nor job you are the at the greatest risk from Inflation. From money.

The spending of all money carries with it the added burden of tax, every time it is spent, interest as well in most cases. Leading to more and more debt. Which we will see in a few short years is about to collapse under it's own weight.

Eisntein when asked what was the most amazing thing he had come across replied "compound interest"

Granted, this is a short essay on money and banking and skips over many things.

If you have grasped what I just said you will be wondering why we strive for that which is such a powerful enemy. I fully recognize that this tribe is about abundance and I am all for abundance. I know in my heart that we are all truly abundant beings.

The point I am making is that the more we focus on money, the more we stand in the way of our own true and full abundance.

I will be rather surprised if there are any more than just a few responses to this. And that's okay. I trust that my offering will reach those who are ready to receive it. I speak out of love. Love for all Love for those who suffer most from money. Love to those who choose greed over their own true and natural abundance.

Yes abundance is ours for the taking.
Love to all.
