Are You Selfish?

“Origin of the Word Selfish”

In any civilized society, there are two opposing forces: capitalism and socialism. Simply stated, capitalism is about inequality. Socialism is about equality.

A capitalist wants to get ahead. Capitalist may study harder, send their kids to the best schools, climb the tallest ladder, start their own business, live in the best neighborhood, drive the nicest cars, stay at the best hotels, fly first class or by private jet, and belong to the best country club.

Socialist will strive for equality. This person wants all his kids to have access to all the best education and healthcare as possible. They worry about the poor, elderly, and the handicapped. They may join a labor union as protection from the capitalist. They value rights and benefits more than a big paycheck. Socialist strongly believe the government should take care of people.

A Sign of Intelligence

Most of us are both capitalists and socialists. We can have both viewpoints. As F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote. “The test of a first rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function. “Although most of us can hold both opposing points of view , some of us lean to one side more than the other.

Some I know lean much more to the capitalist side, yet they give vast sums of money to their church and to charities. Some others I know lean more to the socialist side and work tirelessly for social causes. Donating a lot of their time but very little money.

"Giving people money doesn't make them financially free. We would rather share what we know and let people make themselves financially free."

The Gap Between The Haves and Have Not's

The reason why I decided to create Mortgage Free Fast was to educate people about the Worth Account by Worth Unlimited, because the gap between the rich and everyone else is too wide… dangerously wide. As Alan Greenspan, the former Chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank, said, “The income gap between the rich and the rest of the U.S. population has become so wide, and is growing so fast, that it might eventually threaten the stability of democratic capitalism itself.”

Upheaval and revolutions occur when the gap is too wide. The Roman Empire fell because taxes got too high and the monetary system became corrupted. Marie Antoinette went to the guillotine during the French Revolution when the gap between the rich and the poor grew too wide. Adolf Hitler rose to power when the middle class lost it’s savings. Recently I was verbally attackEd over a Facebook post I posted on my fan page of a news article about the Papa Gino’s bankruptcy. they were upset because I wrote, “The employees are the only losers, because employees think a paycheck is more important than financial freedom education.” Meaning, if they invested into their financial freedom education, they may have been better prepared to deal with their sudden unemployment. They didn’t take kindly to it and left the reply below:

"...because employees think a paycheck is more important that financial freedom education."

Does the Worth Unlimited program still cost $3500 to enter into, or do you hand out the basic tenet of dumping discretionary dollars to the highest interest rate debt out for free? Or does your firm now give access to a Worth Account at no charge, for those "advanced banking strategies"?

Were United First Financial agents- the precursor to your being a Worth Unlimited "Independent" agent, all losers like those Papa Ginos employees after their commissions stopped?

Ben, you're a scam artist. Furthermore, you're a bad one, because anyone with half a scent at sales knows everyone's money spends the same. You're intentionally insulting what amounts to a work force of high school and college students, because it makes those who feel superior (ergo, those who are already underwater and who have forgotten what it means to start out) think you're offering them a leg up- when those same young adults could just as easily start clean, turning their 30 hours a week into starter properties, and begin their own cash flow on the same money you openly dismiss.

Not a good look there, sport."

This angry reply above is a symptom of the widening gap between the rich and the poor.

Government Legislation Cannot Solve the Problem

Most socialists believe government legislation should solve the financial problems that are brewing. The problem is many governments cannot solve their own financial problems. In the U.S. we have Social Security and Medicare, monstrous entitlement burdens that need to be fixed. If the problem is not fixed , the gap between rich and poor will soon tear America apart. If America’ falters, the world economy falters. Chaos and violence will erupt.

It’s doubtful whether government legislation can solve the coming economic problems. But financial freedom education might give individuals a chance to solve their own financial problems rather than expect the government to take care of them.

Why Worth Unlimited and I Teach

Most socialists believe in giving people fish. Some capitalists believe in teaching people to fish. Many capitalists don’t teach… they just sell financial products. That may be where the term “sell-fish” comes from.

With Unlimited and I joined together as teachers. We believe in teaching people to fish, which is why Mortgage Free Fast was created. We may not change socialized government policies but, with financial freedom education and the Worth Account, we can change ourselves. Think about learning how to fish, by getting your free mortgage savings analysis done. We believe it’s better to bring people up… rather than tear the government and each other down..
