IF YOU WON $2BILLION, WOULD YOU STILL BE DOING THE JOB YOU ARE PRESENTLY DOING?

Edwin Castro announced as winner of largest Jackpot money ever

This month, a Californian man by the name Edwin Castro was revealed to have won $2.04billion in the November 2022 Powerball lottery. That amount is the largest lottery prize money to have ever been won globally.
It got me thinking- ''Siji, if you won that amount, would you still be at this job, in this country, or would you resign and start gallivanting around the world spending money lavishly in order to 'enjoy your best life now' (as most people would)?''

Would I write all the books I always wanted to write as time will not be an issue?

Would I still consider recording all the albums I made out to sing?

Would I found the companies, or a single conglomerate, to solve all the problems I always wanted to tackle, both in Nigeria and globally?

What about you?

Let me ask you also...
If you have $2billion, would you still be doing the exact thing/work at the present job or trade that you are presently doing?

If your answer is No! Then, you don't have a money problem, you only have a conflict of Purpose, and a passion/motivation dilemma.

Find a way to start what you really want to do, which you would do if money was no longer a problem for you. Find a way to make a business out of it, then, hopefully, you can find true fulfillment.

You only have one life- Live fully; Die empty!

And remember, you either find a way, or an excuse- the choice is yours!!

Things That Do Not Make Sense Are What Makes A Whole Lot of Money

We are not totally rational beings, especially with money. Or how do you explain how we humans go to the cinema to watch a movie for N1500 that will cost N500 when it comes out on home video, and we buy popcorn worth only about N50 for N800 because we want to chew and feel great while watching the movie. [A friend that works at a cinema house here in Nigeria told me that more than 80% of their profits come from the popcorn and Pepsi, and not from the movies people come there to watch.]

Humans have long been known to do things irrationally especially when it comes to emotional matters. And that is why advertisers appeal to our emotions when they want to 'sell us' items we probably don't need, at outrageous amounts we can't afford. [Sex Still Sells!]

The Only Reason Why Money Is The #1 Cause Of Divorces Worldwide

I was discussing with someone not too long ago about relationships and why couples break up due to money issues (-in case you missed my earlier post on money being the #1 proven cause of divorce, please read it). 

Do you know that there is really only one reason couples do not (want to) come back together after a fight...? And it is simple- Couples Who Have Not Created Enough Memorable Experiences Together, Do Not Find Reasons To Stay Together When The Going Gets Tough (or to come back together, if they separate for any reason)!
