1. Where you one of the hording crowd who participated in
this years Black Friday? If so was it all that you thought it
was going to be? Did you come away feeling like you made
some real savings on your purchases? If so, you might
have been duped like most of the population these days.
Thinking you saved some money during Black Friday was
most likely an illusion of our present financial situation.
2. I heard a report that the amount people spent this year
during Black Friday was an average of $300 a person,
which was up from last year. Hip Hip Hooray!!! people are
spending money that must mean our financial crisis is
over. What they didn't report is that people were able to
buy a whole lot less for their money this year than last
year. Basically our dollar is worth less now so it takes more
of it to buy the same amount.
3. Which brings me to the key point of this post. Where is
your thinking, right now during these economic times. Are
you living in fear as you see our food and staple prices
starting to soar? Or are you living in hope that things are
on the verge of getting better. The third option is to live in
abundance, believing that no matter what happens to the
American dollar you will be financially secure.
4. The reality is the more money the government prints, the
less value our money has. What is really being printed is
nothing but debt, IOU's that will be handed down to our
children and grandchildren.
5. I'd like to believe that the people are waking up to what is
happening. Sadly most people are left in ignorance
believing they will be saved by our government. When in
reality the more dependent you are the more effected you
will be when the American dollar bottoms out.
6. Many of us realize that we need to take responsibility for
our own financial security, (not through hand outs from
the government) but by preparing ourselves to be solution
providers. Realizing that YOU are your most valuable
asset. You have a million dollar mind that can create
financial freedom and security, if you use it.
7. Not long from now the majority of the population will be
waking up to a real serious situation, and they will be
looking for help. Will you be on the side of the Helpless or
the Financially Secure? It's all in what you think.
