That’s Why I Want A Billion $$$

What if someone gave you a billion dollars?

 What would you do?

 Pay bills?

 Give some to charity?

 Buy an island?

 

 I was just curious. 

 Personally, I would do what I could to

 Change the world we live in now.

 

 Think about it…

 You have a billion dollars, that’s more than

 Enough resources to make you happy.

 But if you’re happy and people around you

 Are still sad, broke, and uneducated

 What use is all that money?

 

 Like Kanye West says: 

“No one man should have all that power”

 And with good reason. 

 

 You see this everywhere, people with

 Money and power abuse it all the time or

 Simply use it improperly to keep other people

 Down. 

 

There are very few that actually understand

How a true legacy can be created not by

Placing your name on buildings, but in

Ensuring that long after death, your name

Lives on the tongues and stays on the minds

Of both strangers and friends alike.

 

Life is much more than complicated than  

 Simply making money and staying healthy

 And recently, I’ve found that truth to be

 Evident in my personal life as well as the 

 Lives of a few close friends.

 

You see, the thing is that I have

Rich friends and I have poor ones as well.

There’s not much of a difference between

The two, but I have to say that for the most

Part that my rich friends happen to be the

Kindest and most generous people I know.

 

It’s not because they are trying to show off

But it’s because they are people that I’ve

Selected to be in my life because they understand

The value of not only having money, but also the

Potential effect they can have on the world.

 

We’re all offered like what?

Maybe 100 years? (138 years if you’re me ;-))

But I mean this planet has been in existence

For something like 4.7 billion years.

 

Imagine having an impact on the planet that

Lasted even a quarter of that amount of time…

 

I personally believe that we are headed into

An age of selflessness and it’s going to be

One hell of a collaborative effort from everyone

That is going to catapult us all to realize that

We’re not just in it for ourselves.

 

This planet has the potential to be a beacon

To everyone that visits (if there really is anyone)

That shows what happens when people drop the

Ego and realize that we are all a part of something

Much, much bigger.

 

I encourage you today to think less about what

You can get and what you can have and think

More about what you can give to your friends

Your neighborhood and this planet.

 

We all know that it is better to give than to receive

But it’s not always as apparent if you’re always

Trying to figure out what the world owes you.

P.S. I felt that might have been a bit sappy

But you know what broseph, it’s my blog so

I can say what I want, but I do believe that

You think the same way and that’s why I
