Today, people are excited about raises because it means they can do the same amount of work for more money. Nowadays, we work in order to enjoy our money, not our time. And the more we enjoy it, in the form of consumption and consumerism, the more we need to work.
Very true…
For me, it’s like I have to fight through any situation to get what I want,
Nowadays, we work in order to enjoy our money, not our time
Lmao time is not really money anymore, it’s more like, money is time, except that you can’t buy time, hmmmn, which means people value things money can buy more than things that money cannot buy, isn’t that crazy.
And the more we enjoy it, in the form of consumption and consumerism, the more we need to work.
This is evident among the life of many people we know, and so the vicious cycle continues, always wanting to get more….but it’s been so for a long time, I don’t blame those who think that it’s the only way.
Isn't it?
Exactly! and perhaps what we want or wanted, has been forcibly injected into our brains without us knowing it.
According to my experience, completely crazy. The problem is that for a long time and progressively they have been giving us less and less money while demanding and stealing us more and more of our time.
Although fortunately those at the top who control the money already can no longer keep up the charade. People are waking up and are more aware of what has been happening and therefore little by little they are seeing how to recover their time and use it in what they truly value the most.
Yep, although the key here is precisely to define what is exactly "that" we want to get more of.
Correct! and as you said somewhere else, there are so many realities, realities inside realities. And hence the confusion.
