How Much IS Enough?

‘Enough’ means you genuinely have sufficient for your needs and are genuinely content with the amount you have. More would be a surplus which you wouldn’t have much use for – you’d either just bank it for a rainy day, or give it away to various good causes.

For everyone else, getting more money is often the thing they worry most about. Money, or rather the lack of it, is a central irritant in their lives and a huge amount of their time and energy is spent in striving to get more.

Please note that often this effort is not spent in merely getting ‘enough’ because most people haven’t the slightest idea what ‘enough’ means – they have only the haziest notion about how much they want – or what they want it for. That’s why I got you to do that exercise in lesson one. They have their heads down, nose to the grind-stone and are locked into a tedious cycle of work, earn and spend.

Is this a teensy bit like you?

Real wealth, in the minds of many, is obtained either through luck (lottery, inheritance etc.) or some kind of scam (legal or otherwise) which they’ve not yet been able to get in on themselves. Honest companies are viewed by some people as profit-grabbing contricks run by crooks in suits. They also have little idea of what money is really for, and how it can either aid or destroy their own happiness and the wellbeing of others.

To them, money is for spending on flashy cars, expensive holidays, designer clothes and shiny baubles and trinkets with costly ‘designer’ logos attached.In short, it’s for posing, protecting, manipulating and controlling.

Stuart Goldsmith will guide you beyond that, if you will allow him.
