Wealth Is LifeStyle

If we are told that Wealth and #Poverty are rooted in one's lifestyle, we cry wolf and crow in our victimology, comfortable places, and begin to attack or blame others, critics. Anyone real to our life, we scapegoat or stereotype him/her. We like to go into our credos and echo chambers with our likes only, music to the ears. In Swahili, we call it "Unampigia Mbuzi Gitaa".

As such, we create an environment that anyone with deceptive charisma to exploit our real expectations. When empty promises hit us like thunderstorms, we take out our anger on ourselves, by finding the villain, typical witch hunting.

Well! Here is someone, Prince Harry, born in the untold thousands of years generational wealth and gold spoons, not even silver spoons. Look at his shoes and lifestyle. He is showing to be related to an average Joe out there. He is an as simple man, as they come. Do you see Bling-Bling or Pimp-My-Crib etc.?

Compare his lifestyle, Prince Harry's, with our ordinary people lifestyle. Ironically, we, ordinary people, are clinging to joy-spending hundreds of $$$ collecting Jordan, Nike Shoes, and countless brand name goodies, only to stash them in our closets collecting dust. In a given year, an ordinary person spends thousands of $$ onto things there not assets, and most likely to be liabilities that mortgage our future and our children's children.

But, an average person is less to none doing investments in the stocks, money markets, bonds or startup niches. At the same time, we are surprised why we are getting poorer. Or, why we are struggling to make the end meet. Where we put our priorities tell us a lot about our lifestyle, which characterizes our wealth threshold.

By now we should know that wealth is a lifestyle. Wealth is created. You can create wealth for yourself, your children and possibly your lineage too. It is called discipline, putting skills to work and changing the behavior, thus lifestyle. Wealth is not an optical illusion or a quick one-time thing. Lineage wealth is a tangible means, prosperity, assets, influence, fortune and substantive abilities to manage life independently and transfer such abilities from one generation to another. Go Figure!
