"What is important in life is not what you do in life 

but what you become in life with what you do in life. 

Let what you do in life 

be part of what you should become in life: 
A kind human being."

When it comes to money, most people just can´t get enough. They always want more and more. Money madness (Goldberg & Lewis, 1978) has grabbed their hearts.

Greediness is perhaps one of the most common diseases that attacks humans, anywhere, anytime. 

Today, even aboriginal people living deep in the jungles suffer from this disease. How? They have become addicted to the convenience of using petro-fuel for the motors on their canoes instead of sweating their butts rowing to get somewhere, for example. They also prefer steel machetes and bullets for their guns instead of stone tools and bows and arrows. Sugar, soap, salt, cookies, cooking oil, glyphosated grains and cereals and other modern commodities are now part of their lives.

Obviously, to get the modern conveniences, aborigines must have cash, gold dust or nuggets, anything that has a high market value outside their forested world. They have come up with many ways to obtain cash to buy things (e.g., guns and ammunition, sugar, soap, fuel, etc.) from the "civilised" world, for instance through contraband, human and arms trafficking, human meat trafficking, dancing for unsustainable tourists, prostitution, camelling for mafiosi (smugglers, guerrillas, narco-militaries, narco-businesmen, narco-entrepreneurs, narco-politicians, etc.), narco-trafficking, bush-meat trading, timber smuggling, illegal sawmilling, clandestine mining, leaving home to get temporary low-paying jobs in plantations or cattle farms, etc.

In "developed nations", the vast majority of people is under the grip of this illness. Many people are greedy up to the gills. 

Thus, in the concrete jungles around the world, there is an insane bunch of globalists that have more money than what they will ever need in a thousand lives. 

Since most people can be bought, in these car- and industry-infested and polluted man-made habitats, i.e., cities, you can also find some crooked lawyers who have really gone mad about money, for example in Canada (see Slayton, 2007).

People from "developing nations" are also suffering from greediness.

Now the big question: How are you doing on this? Are you übergrossly money bitten? 


Something to think about

Mon Capitaine, is money a tool or is man a tool of this tool?

Money is a tool to buy real necessities to keep yourself alive, mon ami. But when you become the tool of this tool to the extent that you have no room for anything else but being tooled by this tool, then you are nothing but a tool of this tool, hopelessly obsessed with the tool of all tools.

If so, mon ami, don´t go crying around asking or hoping for a radical change for the better in this world. 

You must change this within you to change that outside you.

Being a rotten and greedy human is easy, mon ami. We already have too many of these assholes running around. "What is important in life is not what you do in life but what you become in life with what you do in life. Let what you do in life be part of what you should become in life: A kind human being" (Gundhramn Hammer, 2017).
