The World Outside An Ivory Tower




Most of the times, students live in a surreal world, a world of make belief, a world where all they need to make it in life is a Certificate and so they struggle hard to acquire the Certificate to the detriment of being educated.

However when they are out of School and enter the real World, they find out that success is not dependent on their Certificates.

In the real world outside of academics, something much more than just school grades and First Class Degree is required.

Some call it "guts", "balls", "audacity", "tenacity" and brilliance. This factor, whatever it is labelled, ultimately decides one's future much more than school grades.

Often in the real world, it's not the smart that gets ahead but the bold.

The world is filled with smart, talented, educated and gifted people.

We meet them everyday.

They are all around us.

 I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn.

That's why Solomon in all his wisdom said in Ecclesiastes 9 vs 11 and l quote from King James Version " I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all".

The world is filled with talented poor people.

All too often, they are poor or struggle financially or earn less than they are capable of, not because of what they know but because of what they don't know.

We focus on perfecting our skills instead of diversifying.

Overspecialization is what caused the need for union protection.

The more specialized you become, the more you are trapped and dependent on that specialty.

Let us diversify our knowledge, diversification is better than overspecialization.

And if you are interested in diversifying your Personal Economy, we are here to advise and assist you.

Is Money Evil?

  Is Money Evil? Some people in order to justify their state of   persistent lack, penury and deprivation deliberately and misleadingly misquote the Bible verse that talks about money and evil. Instead of stating as the Bible stated that "it is the love of money that is the root of all evil" they rather state their own version that "money is evil" They refuse to remember that the Scriptures also say that "money is a defence" and that "money answereth all things" But is money really evil? Definitely not Money and the ownership of it in quantum is the best thing that can happen to any man or woman as a matter of fact. Without money, a man becomes ball-less shooting only colloids without substance, having a mouth but no voice, having eyes but no sight and generally living a life of a sitting duck filled with bitterness and angst against the World and those who have money. So, money on its own is not evil - it is only a means ...

Welcome To Our Blog

The issues of #Wealth, #Riches and #Money have been on the front burner of discussions amongst men of all ages since when Adam was still in the #Garden of #Eden And up till today, they are yet to be resolved. So many people have the erroneous belief that acquiring money is the evidence that one is rich or wealthy and so they CHASE money with all their strength, all their might and all their minds Some others think that money is just a means of exchange and that nobody actually owns it as it continually exchanges hands from time to time and therefore ought not to be chased but what ought to be chased are those things which money cannot buy and which possession of them actually makes a man wealthy. Whichever School of Thought you belong to, you are welcome to our blog. Here we are committed to bringing about balanced views on the triple issues of Money, Wealth,  Riches so that our readers, fans and followers would be adequately and properly educate...

What Is Wealth?

  What Is Wealth? "A person's, community's, company's, or country's wealth is the total sum of all their valuable properties. Wealth is calculated by subtracting all debts from the overall market value of all real and intangible assets held. Wealth is essentially the accumulation of finite capital. When individuals, groups, or nations are able to acquire a large number of valuable resources or commodities, they are considered to be rich. Wealth differs from income in that it is a stock while income is a flow, and it can be measured in absolute or relative terms " There are as many definitions of wealth as there are writers and thought leaders. Henry David Thoreau says   “ Wealth is the ability to fully experience life. ” And Robert Kiyosaki says "Wealth is NOT a measurement of how much money you have but how long you can live without working." Understanding the Definition of Wealth Wealth can be represented in a number of different wa...
