[quote=scaredyclassic] For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.[/quote]

Money, it’s a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream,
Think I’ll buy me a football team

Money is what we believe will save us.

It calms our nerves.

Makes us feel protected and safe.

Allays our fears for ourselves and our children.

Makes our life safe and comfortable.

It is our hope and,our salvation.

Only if you just get way way too much of it, you need to form a foundation to give it all away

Primarily for tax purposes.

There is nothing else that really, when you judge actions not words, matters to anyone here more than money.

Money is what we attend to, where our hearts are, what we know is meaningful.

It sets our place in this,world and keeps us bound to society in a sacred trust insured by the FDIC, our savior..

There is no thing else. There is no G-d we trust more than it. There is no option in our world. Only fools and madmen truly believe in anything else.

I knew a security guard once at a bldg I worked at 20 years ago. Became friendly. Older guy. Had joined a super Jesus freak church. Sold his house, gave them all his money, quit a good job, was with then for a few,years. Dissolved and left him penniless in a strange and different us state.

Became a security guard.

Did not appear to have regrets.

Or was he?[/quote]

[quote=moneymaker]Actually interest is not suppose to be charged according to God[/quote]

Every text or rule has a loophole.

It’s difficult to even comprehend trusting something more than wealth

[moneymaker]

According to the bible you can charge interest to foreigners but not your brothers.

[NotCranky]

If money is God, exaggeration of economic insecurity is Satan. A full stomach will cure 90% of insecurity in most brave people. 9% more can be wiped out with a few months provisions and basic shelter. Cowardice and Greed turn the 1% remaining into most of the human suffering we see, or will ever see.

Can you quote the bible. I’m a bad Christian and never read the bible. I need a good app for non believers.

With hindsight, real estate reflect how people feel about money.

The new gilded age started in the 1980s with a look back to the ornate old world of Europe. We started copying the old styles and adapting it to modern life. Now we see the pendulum swing back toward more simplicity — our own original designs of buildings that fit with the landscape. Smart landscaping instead of the typical lush, water hog green with lots of arbustos.

Remember Michael J. Fox in Family Ties in the 80s? Young people were right wing. Now they are softer kinder more artistically attuned.

One high end realtor said the following about move-in ready luxury homes.

It’s about quality, over quantity (of inventory).

The old world style, rich gold, ornate, I like to say gaudy, is no longer what the luxury buyer is looking for. They are looking for things that appeal to the intellect. Things that are smart design. Things that sort of have a very beautiful serene essence about them.
