RE: Does money makes the world go around?

in #life5 years ago

Money as fiction - there's a deep thought.
On top of all that you've said there's the fiction that 'old money' is more worthwhile than 'new money'!
Old money according to many meant the people were decent, well mannered and had high morals.
NOT SO! I think those people just knew how to hide their base activities and nature, better AND they'd had much more practice.
Often people who had worked hard to make their own money were thought to be brash, outspoken and didn't care what others thought.
And so the fiction goes on.................
Thanks for visiting and your thoughts mgaft1.

Yeh, Bernard Shaw has a good play about it. )))

My mother was an elocution teacher. I learned at a young age to round my vowels and project my voice!
We had fun producing plays.

You were lucky in that sense. For one thing, it's always lucky for a child to have two loving parents. But especially in the sense that your dad encouraged you to learn new words and your mom taught you to round your vowels ( the skill I am not even aware existed) from an early age. 👌
