These days, many savers and investors are panicking because of the repeated losses on the stock exchange and the increase in the notorious spread.
In times of relative stability, investments are made and the parasitic rent is enjoyed, while when things go badly one swears at the government which would be responsible for this difficult situation.
When all goes well you forget a very simple truth: money cannot be made from other money.
This idea of work that multiplies itself is well summed up by the legendary phrase:
"Don't work for the money, put the money to work for you"
So caught up in the hangover of easy money the "chickens" run attracted by easy money. After all, it takes just to put a signature in the bank, entrust your savings to a "consultant" and that's it, at the end of the year I will have my income….
This is until all goes well ... When the wind changes we cry and blame ourselves on the right and left.
The point is that if we want to make money we have to send "ourselves" to work, not hope to send the money to work for us. Have you ever seen a coin or a banknote roll up their sleeves and start working?
I have never seen money that builds houses, hoes the land or produces goods and services.
We have lost the sense of true wealth which is not money, but material goods and services that can eventually be exchanged for money which should only be a unit of exchange, to make trade possible and not a store of value. which changes arbitrarily over time.
Personally, I have been against financial investments for 10 years.
The money that creates more money is the child of an unbalanced system in which a parasitic system sucks value from the world of real work, a continuous transfer of wealth from those who work to those who claim to live on income.
There may be times when "the trick" works, but in itself it is a carcinogenic system that sooner or later is destined to implode with all the consequences of the case.
We need a de-financialization of the economy, which does not mean eliminating finance, but truly putting it at the service of citizens and the real economy.
