Sorry for so many threads, but I found this little comment and it really stuck out to me. Sort of like the - Money doesn't mean anything - types of quotes that broke people say. As for the context, it was just a video about working hard, thinking positive, and being fearless.
And then you evolve more and realise earning money, being rich, famous or whatever is utterly empty and pointless.
This is not the solution and its true any one could do this IF THEY WANTED TO, but they don't and they don't for a good reason because the expansion of your ego or bank account is ultimately pointless and people know this. So they need the vision of that which is not pointless and then all else happens spontaneously.
Whatta you think? Found it interesting

- Spoken by someone who has yet to amount to anything!!
- you deserve a reward for worlds most ignorant liberal.
- Having an expanded bank account is pointless? Being financially free and in a position to support others is pointless? Please listen to yourself and make the adjustments necessary so you can not only help yourself but those around you.
(The original poster replies) - Theres a difference between having what you need and striving to being rich. being rich demands others to be poor otherwise theres no such thing as being rich, so striving to be rich is not a virtue to me.
Your attracted to the egoic idea of being rich and being able to help people with your money.
and the last reply that was worth posting
- can you please describe how you think being rich makes others poor? Are you saying that there is only a limited amount of money in the world and no country is currently printing money?
