Simple tips to stay out of poverty!

in #discipline7 years ago

Many so called "experts" and "pundits" have written books, opinion pieces, lectured and made videos about their tips to stay out of poverty. Much of it is crap, feel good nonsense and propaganda. Most of them went to government sponsored hot beds of propaganda called public schools and never recovered. Many of them are academics who have an agenda. Some of them are smart, but cannot even tie their shoes properly and are discounted. Too bad none of them mentioned a word of any of these to me when I was a kid. Where were they?

  • Do not go to public schools (complete waste of time, unless you account for the food fights).
  • Stay out of debt (some debt is good, but most of slavery).
  • Do not watch the mainstream media (unless you are braindead).
  • Do not work a regular "job" (this is the epitome of giving up your liberty, for a small amount of security, if you are lucky).
  • Start your own businesses (yes, many streams of income).
  • Travel beyond your doorstep (meet people, learn about other cultures and history).
  • Be independent (be beholden to no one).
  • Don't get arrested (the state will siphon as much money as they can out of you).
  • Follow your gut instinct.

These are some of my rules to stay out of
