Wealth is a word I have been hearing for a very long time but I never took the time to understand the meaning fully. I used to think that when you have money you are wealthy, but while growing up I realized that having money doesn’t necessarily make you wealthy.

Wealth in my opinion is the power to acquire anything you desire. The abundance of your ability to acquire anything you want is what I will consider to be wealth. You can have money and not be able to acquire what you desire because that money is not enough. Having money just helps you take care of your basic needs and pay bills and that where it stops, sometimes you can have a enough to buy a comfortable car but not a luxurious car. But being wealthy gives you the ability to afford all the abundance of life and still have enough.

Human needs and wants are naturally insatiable, it’s almost impossible to see humans stay naturally complacent financially. They are always wanting to make more money and always hustling to get that money. But don’t get me wrong we still have the lazy complacent ones. We honestly don’t really need to be wealthy because, when you have something in extreme abundance, some people get deprived those resources. As a human being we all want to be wealthy because we to know what it feels like to be in that abundant position. What makes you feel like you are wealthy is because, while you have something in abundance, it gets so easy to notice those who are deprived off those resources. With the social construct of socio economic wealth, we feel wealthy and special because we have it in abundance and others don’t.

But imagine a world where everyone has everything in abundance, that is everyone is wealthy, if everyone is wealthy, then no one is wealthy. Because being wealthy is the norm.

Don’t get me wrong I will like to be very wealthy, I want to enjoy life to the fullest and never have money as a reason for limitation.

How Can You Be Wealthy Honestly speaking before I found out about Hive or cryptocurrency, I never knew how to be wealthy. I thought you can be wealthy by winning the lottery, or working so hard can make someone wealthy.

I can remember my dad reading a book called “Richest Man In Babylon” he also read “The Science of Getting Rich”, and he told me that if I wanted to be rich in life I need to read these books. I thought these books were magical books that automatically made you rich after you read them. So I read the book at the age of 11 giving myself a head start to get rich and be the richest 11 year old boy. But instead the book was teaching me the power of imagination, the power of investment, and the power of chasing after my goals.

The truth is these books can only motivate you and guide you, I don’t feel they can automatically make you wealthy. Currently I feel Hive is one way you can be wealthy or acquire wealth over time. Bitcoin has made a lot of people wealthy and we are extremely privileged to be on Hive. This is because of the utility and the potential Hive has. Some wealthy people got the privilege of being an early investor in some projects. Early projects like real estates, mobile cars, smartphones, social media and internet. Right now you are being given the privilege of investing on a social media built on the Web 3.0 blockchain technology. Hive is going to dominate the web 3 blockchain technology. Hive will have a role to play in the world’s future economy. Investing on Hive is one way to participate on how to be wealthy with this platform.

How Do You Participate Blog quality contents, buy hive and power up so you can curate quality content. Also engage and participate on other Hive projects like the communities and the blockchain game,splinterlands.

Hive is one year old, but has a longer history and the experience we have accumulated is working in our favor. We've evolved over the four, or five year period and in terms of development, we've never been in a better position, which means more and more investment and earning possibilities for everyone.
