Montreal Gazette – Opinion: Growing old is no fun

Opinion: Growing old is no fun.

…’Most people I know, with the exception of the very rich, are concerned that their money won’t last as long as they do. We had all hoped to leave something to our children and grandchildren, maybe also to our favourite charities, but that dream has been supplanted with the hope that our money just lasts long enough to look after us.”…

I’ll add here that longevity is directly proportional to financial means but in no way does that imply that wealthier persons stick around longer.

Short version is as follows ~

Less money, worst health, pre-mature death. ‘WHY’ ! Because pre-occupation is with basic survival mentality. Aka ~ homeless, addicts, terminally ill.

Modest wealth equals relative longevity, BASED on decisions of wise choices. HEALTH TAKES CENTER STAGE relative to expenditures and comfort zone targets. This is where brains and wealth meet best in a wave like fashion from an early age standpoint of view. Banks call it investing for the future for a good reason. It is their way of willing to participate in your longevity and making money the good old fashion way through ‘time’.

High income brackets and wealth generation leads to early burn-out. Kitchen receipe for disaster in which it becomes a feeding frenzy for piranhas while you are living and vultures after your death. Then you have the blood suckers joining the end game as you are about to kick the bucket.

Extremely wealth do have more options, no doubt. Wealth can buy anything. Problem is none of the solutions are rooted in the afterlife, other than the keepsake of burnt offerings of ashes on the fireplace mantles of illusions. Won’t do a damn thing for you Karma wise, which is ‘WHAT’ should have been done with all that free time while living in the lap of luxury and the ability to share through abundance with those who could make future differences on this planet. Remember, people of wealth may have power, but they have ZERO EVERYTHING in common with all other types of financial brackets in the GREAT SPIRIT IN THE PIE SKY. If they didn’t have time to setup a boatload of good people for the future, they’ll get a reality check in their kesters once back on terra firma at some point down the road.

ALL THE SUPER RICH PEOPLE HAVE IS A GREAT 100 YEAR BUSINESS PLAN. THAT LEAVES THEM SHORT ON THE WHAT TO DO WITH THE REST OF INFINITY AS THEY BOUNCE BACK AND FORTH INTO THE BRICK WALL OF REALITY LIKE THE REST OF US. THEY END UP SPOILING AND IN THE PROCESS DO THEMSELVES MORE HARM THROUGH THEIR OWN INJUSTICE OF SELF INTEGRITY.

WHETHER RICH OR POOR OR IN ANY STATE, MONEY ONLY MATTERS IF YOU PUT IT TO GREAT FUTURE USE, HEALTH AND SPIRIT FOR YOURSELF FIRST AND THEN OTHERS BY EXAMPLE. MONEY IS ONLY A MEANS BY WHICH YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH MORE OR LESS BUT IN NO WAY DIMINISHES IT’S IMPORTANCE IF IT’S INTENTION AND PURPOSE IS TO CREATE QUALITY.

NOPE SORRY TO SAY, AIN’T A ONE WAY TICKET STRAIGHT TO HEAVEN. ZIG-ZAG is more like it while surfing the DOT / WAVES of the UNIVERSE. THE MONOPOLY CARD of GO STRAIGHT TO HOME AND COLLECT $$$$, POWER, ETERNAL LIFE(IMMORTALITY) AKA HEAVEN ~ IS ONLY RESERVED FOR THOSE WHO PUT IN THE EFFORT IN WRITING, WORDS, BLOOD, SWEAT, TEARS AND PRAYING(MEDITATING) ALL WHILE PLAYING WITH THE RIGHT ATTITUDE OF ABUNDANCE MENTALITY. PRAYER WORKS TOO, BUT THAT’S A DAMN LONG WAIT FOR THOSE WHO HAVE THE PATIENCE OF MANY LIVES AHEAD OF THEM AND WILLING TO PUT ON THE MILEAGE.

MY MOST FAMOUS PHRASE FROM INDIANA JONES RAIDERS OF THE ARK IS ~

IT’S NOT THE AGE THAT COUNTS, IT’S THE MILEAGE !

WORDS FOR THE WISE.

IN OLD AGE, TIME IS TO HELP OTHERS THROUGH WISDOM OF EXPERIENCE TO BUILD UP GOOD KARMA FOR EVERYONE, YOURSELF INCLUDED.

WHY ?

BECAUSE TODAY’S ENEMY WILL ONE DAY IN THE FUTURE, BE YOUR FAMILY, FATHER/MOTHER, BROTHER/SISTER OR CHILDREN.

KARMA IS A BITCH THAT BITES DAMN HARD IN THOSE CASES, SOMETHING THAT BLOODLINES SEEM VERY KEEN ON MAKING SURE THAT LESSONS AREN’T FORGOTTEN.
