During a trip to Hong Kong, the billionaire duo decided to grab lunch at McDonald's. To Gates' amusement, when Buffett offered to pay, he pulled out a handful of coupons.

Whether we are poor or rich, money holds us prisoner.
The rich feel poor because of GREED.

No matter how much they have, their identity
("feeling good, important, secure")
was forged by a society dedicated to making
and spending more money.

Money is supposed to free us from material concerns.
Paradoxically it does the opposite.

We become its prisoners.

Few people take a rational approach to money.
This would involve calculating how much money they need in relation to how much money they have, and how much money they make.
Rather, people tend to focus on their last 2%. Did their "net worth" increase or derease on a given day?
Depending on their tax bracket, this may involve their last $100, $1000, $10,000, $10 million or $10 billion. They ignore their big bank balance or stock portfolio. They always feel poor.
Money is supposed to free us from material concerns.
Paradoxically it does the opposite. We become its prisoners.
We are satanically possessed. This means we identify with money rather than our Divine soul.
We are money rather than God's personal representative on earth.
The more money we have, the bigger and better we feel. These values are inculcated by our satanist-controlled mass media.
I am addressing the roughly 50% of my readers who, according to my Gab poll, have enough or more money than they need.
I don't fault the other 50% who don't have enough or are broke for feeling oppressed.
NO STATS FOR INNER POVERTY

Paradoxically the rich suffer from a spiritual impoverishment.
The more they identify with their money, the smaller they are. The more money they have, the smaller they are.
In the case of the Illuminati bankers, this inner poverty is toxic. They are a cancer that threatens to destroy mankind.
They want to "absorb" (the World), all the world's wealth leaving nothing to support humanity.
They want it all!
We're indoctrinated to seek money. Within limits, money is a great motivator and measure.
I know someone who doesn't have to work. He works because he has nothing else to do, and it makes him feel productive and rewarded.
Another friend is independently wealthy from investments. He retired a couple of years ago but is returning to his old profession out of sheer boredom.
PERSONAL
I am as satanically possessed as anyone. I have had a lifelong struggle with greed. At age 74, I am just starting to master this demon.
Recently I did the calculation above and realized that I have more money than I'll ever spend.
My spending habits were formed during eight years as a graduate student living on roughly $10,000 per year. I really don't need or care about material things.
Paradoxically, this lack of concern for money did NOT stop me from developing a gambling addiction. When I didn't have much money, I didn't care about it. When I sold Scruples to Hasbro in 1986, I became a money manager and thought my game smarts would extend to the stock market. MISTAKE.
Scruples had been a labor of love. I did it because It was a workshop on everyday morality.
After my windfall, I became satanically possessed (i.e. GREED.) If someone asked how I was, I said, "I'll ask my broker."
We have to be on guard constantly because the voice in our head often is the devil!
Then another voice arises from our soul and says, "Cool it, you greedy moron."
You gamble with money you'll never spend. More or Less. What is the point? You don't even know your balance.
We have a Mexican cleaning woman who supports an extended family. I have never met a woman whose smile exudes such warmth.
Surely, these human qualities represent our true riches.
Money is the lowest common denominator. People today are consumed by money. They are charmless.
YouTube is packed full of "how I got rich" stories.
While the world descends into Communist tyranny or faces a nuclear catastrophe, they act like money will save them.
For people who have enough, freedom lies in eschewing money. Just not caring about it.
Can you do that?

As financial crisis hits the country,
Venezuelans throw money on the streets.
The devaluation of the Venezuelan bolívar
means smaller bills are worthless.
In order to buy a loaf of bread, Venezuelans would need a big bag full of cash.

by Henry Makow Ph.D.
Excellent records are kept for material poverty.
For example, 16% of Americans live below the poverty line: $24K for a family of four. This includes almost 20% of American children.
However, a more serious epidemic is sweeping the nation: inner poverty.
While I estimate 95% of the population lives below the spiritual poverty line, this squalor garners absolutely no attention.
Inner poverty is a spiritual vacuum at the core of our being. Its symptoms are a sense of emptiness, sadness, meaninglessness and lack of direction. It's like the soul has gone AWOL.
What do people want?
We want to feel good.
How do we know if we are spiritually impoverished? The good feeling doesn't come from within, from the soul. We need the world to make us feel good. We are addicted to getting "fixes" like drug addicts. (This the source of all addiction.)
INDICATORS OF SPIRITUAL IMPOVERISHMENT
Love or sex addiction. We catch a glimpse of a beautiful creature in the distance and imagine a life of bliss together if only... We see a couple strolling hand-in-hand and feel envious..
Stinginess. Why are so many well-off people so stingy? They feel poor.
Schadenfreude. We derive some satisfaction or comfort from the misfortune of others.
We desperately seek recognition, acceptance and encouragement to feel good. This may take the form of sales, "likes," followers," "smiles,' or hits. One young friend was despondent because he texted three girls about "hanging out" and none replied.
Money makes us euphoric or miserable. We measure our day in terms of how much we made or lost. Another friend was burned up because potential clients were waffling. He had done work on spec for a client who wasn't even answering his emails.
We've been programmed to be beggars, feel-good junkies, addicted to the world to make us happy.
As a result, we feel like beggars. How can we stop?
HOW TO STOP FEELING LIKE A BEGGAR
Beggar behavior is habitual.
These habits are ingrained, programmed by society, and very difficult to change.
The key to not feeling like a beggar is to stop acting like one.
Check your stocks just once a day instead of every five minutes.
If you can't do this, sell them all.
Thoreau said, "We are rich in the number of things we can let alone."
Check your email or Face Book just 2-3 times a day.
Give. Encouragement. Money. Help. People in beggar-mode never give. Giving destroys this programming.
Mortify yourself to the world.
In religious terms, this means renounce the world. You refuse to gain your primary happiness from any other source but God, i.e. your soul connection.
You become indifferent to praise or blame except your own.
It's funny that we value other peoples' opinion, but not our own. We make so much effort to gain respect from others, and so little effort earning our own. We need to learn to make ourselves feel good. Enjoy your Self. What an art that is!
We've been programmed to deny ourselves and conform to others. We have been programmed to disdain ourselves, to feel inadequate.
Whether by constant prayer, meditation or by repeating affirmations, we need to reprogram ourselves. The mind is like a steering wheel. If we don't control it, someone else will.
We get a temporary thrill when the world puts a nickel in our cup, but the mind soon needs another "fix."
The organ of "feeling" is the soul, not the mind. The soul is the entity that hears the thoughts. Our feelings usually correspond to thoughts. If we still the mind, as in meditation, we can experience the soul. Thus, the soul should determine the thoughts, not the world. Think uplifting thoughts. That's what faith is about. Nourish the soul.
CONCLUSION
The key is submitting mind to soul. We need to transfer our sense of self from the thoughts to the soul. Soul is the real Self. Soul, our connection to God, is our real identity.
We need to be Self-possessed. Self-controlled. Self-directed. Self-motivated. Self-sufficient. i.e. God-centered. By Self, I mean soul, not ego. Loving God is really loving your own essence.
Denying God is denying ourselves.
People will treat you like you treat ("serve") your Self, our true identity and path.
Beyond the necessities, we don't need anything from the world. If we live within our means, we can turn our focus inward and experience our Divine inheritance.
