I wanted to give two example I saw in last 7 days :
1. I am an fan of Prank Video Maker named UDY pranks . They used to make prank on catching gold diggers (female/male). They have over 1.6m subscriber . But recently Youtube disallowed them to post any new videos .In words of Channel owner :
"Hey guys! If you guys follow me on IG you guys know YouTube removed our newest episodes! Don’t worry though this is not bringing us down, it’s motivating us to make bigger, better videos!! Be patient with us as we adjust our upload schedule after this inconvenience! Love you all!"
This real life example fits in so well with Commandment of Control . You were huge one day and with one decision all your future earnings are put in jeopardy .
(This channel is good though
)
2. I read following article :
Almost half of US families can't afford basics like rent and food
While 43% household of USA not able to afford monthly budget is really very sad (this is in fact true for almost all the countries ). What puzzles me is the article itself .
"Some 66% of jobs in the US pay less than $20 an hour"
"This would require an hourly wage of $42.46. But in Washington State, only 14% of jobs pay more than $40 an hour"
"ALICE -- Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed" (you are employed still constrained ..why not change the mindset and financial equation then ?)
"Despite seemingly positive economic signs, the ALICE data shows that financial hardship is still a pervasive problem" (again scripted dogma of having no control ).
"Seattle's City Council just passed a controversial tax on big businesses to help alleviate the city's growing homelessness and affordable housing problems." (what ? this is how as M J says 'we love babies(jobs) but hate mothers (entrepreneurship) ' )
So much emphases on Job as if there is no other way ..
I think M J's books are the need of the hour .
It also gives me confidence that path I have chosen is right
