People never learned the lessons of history. Instant gratification is always being pursued. It's the money literally that is being valued not the real value of money, which I think is being a good steward of it to help others as well as oneself. Thank you and more power. Good day Francis,

Very much true. People never learned the lessons of history. Instant gratification is always being pursued. It’s the money literally that is being valued not the real value of money, which I think is being a good steward of it to help others as well as oneself.

Thank you and more power.

I have been monitoring the way the stock markets have been manipulated by inside trading, how government leaders manipulate or favor certain businesses, how futures commodities trading lure people into speculating about products that are not yet in existence... the price of selfish motives anmd improper gains. We need to teach our children the basic virtues of honesty, integrity, impartiality and fairness with our daily interactions with our neighbors. These seemed so insignificant in the world of high finances such that investments nowadays almost look like gambling and bigtime swindling. Credit cards likewise lure people into believing that anything can be had with just one swipe. Credit is not bad but it should be handled wisely, just like cash. These things must be taught in school. Financial intelligence is good but Spiritual maturity with Moral responsibility is key ! I totally agree.

Thus, when events, situations, circumstances appeared that tested our core values, we lost clarity of what is good and beautiful. As they say, what is beautiful is not always good. But what is good is always beautiful. For me, each moment is a struggle to live and behave honorably with the many hats that I wear. This may be true for some people perhaps. May God continue to bless you Francis, your family and in all that you do, so more men and women will be reconnected with HIM and restore us to moral wellness.

Yes, it is true that credit cards have also contributed to the fall esp to people who relied mainly on those rather than sweating to give rewards of their fruit of labor. Thank you. More power Sir,
