The Psychological Boundaries/Limit We Create For Money
As humans, we like to create limits especially when it comes to money. This is because, at its base core, money is one of those objects that directly derives value from man and still has the extrinsic ability to still control him (man). Originally, because money derives power from people, things like money policies or central bank reforms can take away the worth of a fiat currency, making it as worthless as a piece of paper.
However, this is all abstract and has to do with the formalities of central money entities. You'll be surprised to know that at the baseline, there's a psychological worth that is being derived from money's ability to purchase.
Purchasing Power Is King
This is why it can destroy ethics, compromise principles put moral standards in jeopardy, tests loyalty, financial resolves, and equally annihilates all the barriers that people set up in order not to lose themselves in the endless loop that comes with its chase.
I use to hear people saying there are things they cannot do because of money
but this is only theoretical and doesn't apply to the practical aspect of reality. Like I said earlier, people create limits because they feel it's particular standards that define their humanity, meanwhile, these standards they've set have not been broken because they've not encountered life situations that can break these standards.
Money Is Practical
For example, some people say they cannot steal because of money, but the truth is that these people will steal for money, the only thing is that situation that would make them break those moral codes has not yet been activated in their lives.
For example, a person on the brink of losing their loved one, not because of an incurable illness but because of their inability to purchase good medical care might loosen their sense of morals about stealing, especially if there's a possibility that there's Money somewhere to be stolen and solve the instant problem and agony of them losing their loved ones. We must understand that loss is a big motivation that compromises every one of our moral codes
Upholding laws, ethics or principles is questionable or comes under scrutiny when people are faced with experiencing a certain loss that might change them forever
Losing Compromises Our Money Ethics
I do think that it's not everyone who has experienced the highest stage of money dilemma because I can categorically tell you that people who have, are the ones that have fragile standards and limits as to how far they can go for money. People often underestimate their capacities when it comes to money. I know that one of the reasons why is that we partially understand the potential ability of money to control people beyond their reckoning.
One of the ways we keep to our standards about money is by making sure we're not in compromising situations where we'll need to choose survival over morals or standards. There are questionable things almost everyone has done for money and sometimes when we think about it, it's unbelievable to think that we could ever do such things.
Money & Questionable Actions
This is because we do not consider these things to be undoable when we're faced we challenge, we only consider them to be so when we do not have these issues. This only proves that the human mind is purely hypocritical. Most of the money limits we've set for our lives will be broken immediately after the appropriate issues with loss sets in.
One thing I've come to understand is that irrespective of the problems we might be facing with money, not a lot of people have experienced some of the problems that would take them to the tipping edges of life. What this point does is strip people of their moral standards, and this is why it's good to understand that we're mostly not capable of the things we are.
The Tipping Point Of Compromise
I do think of the thing people would not consider doing for money is losing their lives because this is the highest tipping point of compromise that changes the whole narrative. Nevertheless, there are still people who will give their lives especially if it'll secure the lives of someone they love for example.
At the base, we're capable of anything when it comes to money, and not accepting this is one of the biggest stages of self-denial. We have to understand that money is an experiential commodity and the only way we can truly understand its capabilities and how it determines a lot in our lives is by going through the lessons that come with profit and loss daily.
Imagining The Possibility Of Doing Anything For Money
When people are not open to imagining these possibilities, then the only thing they can do is to keep working hard, stacking emergency funds, and having enough savings and assets. Nevertheless, no matter how much money we prepare in order not to be exposed to the possibility of doing anything for Money, we still have to understand that no matter the pinnacle of wealth we get to in life, no one is completely immune from loss.
In life, what we mostly hold on to is the sentiment of hope, hope not to do certain things for money, or hope not to compromise ourselves when the possibilities of such things are likely especially when we're faced with the risk of extinction. People can do anything for money this is a certainty, but we hold on to hope that we might not see circumstances that might make us.
