Are People Brainwashed To Believe, “The Good Life,” Is Based On Material Goods?

The problem nowadays is that we live in such a materialistic world. So many people look at money as the key to happiness. You have regular cats out there with regular jobs and everything that have so many unrealistic dreams that in the end makes them feel miserable, because they don’t have what they’ve been brainwashed to believe a man is supposed to have in order to “have a good life”.

    From my own personal situation, money is the only way forward in this world. I dont care what anyone says, if you dont think so, try struggling, try not having one penny, try being unemployed etc. and tell me that money aint important. The people that say mo money more problems are the ones WITH money. I dont know what my future holds but I know that money is the only way out money is the only way to have a good life. You cant be broke and having a good life. There may still be good THINGS in your life but it aint the same case.

    NO MONEY = MORE PROBLEMS!

    if we lived in a society that didnt have money then we’d be trading fur, liquor, wood, gold, food etc.
    money just makes things easier
    with money, our civilization is able to evolve (for better or worse)
    if 99% of the world were saints or buddhist monks, we’d all be blissful but we wouldnt have anyone taking time to make ferraris and ipods
    make sense? real talk.

    Pray those types of people will grow beyond those mentalities because its not about riches and bitches, its about being wealthy & healthy, mentally, physically, spiritually, emotionally, you know, mind, body, soul & spirit… If you need money to make you, you will never have enough, get to know yourself well enough that you know that & your on the right track & everything will fall in to place, just ask Mase. Wisdom is more precious than jewels, its all about being real, not a dollar bill!
