Sharing Knowledge

When you share the kind of knowledge that parents or friends or other close relatives share with you with the world, often you allow people who don't have good or kind or knowledgeable relatives or friends to survive their lives. So, if you find yourself with knowledge and wisdom share it if you can so others can even survive wherever they live on earth and beyond. Here are some examples of what my wise relatives and friends shared with me as I grew up and I found to be true as I passed through my life. I'm now 63.

1. First of all don't expect any corporation or government to be there for you all your life. In other words, start your own business or businesses because you really cannot count on anyone else except God in the end. Those that do count on Corporate jobs or government jobs to be there for them throughout their lives often wind up as one of the millions of unemployed during times like these.

2. Whenever possible try to be able to buy or rent the use of 1 acre for every person in your family, hopefully on the same plot of land with good soil and access to water hopefully by a well that has no limits on the amount of water you can pump. Under these conditions, 1 acre of land can usually grow enough food to feed one person year around so no one in your family starves. So, even if your government collapses, you still have 1 acre of land for each member of your family and water to water your crops to eat. You can pump the water with electrical lines running in or by wind power or even by solar power by trickle up into large water tanks when there is no wind but there is sun. then when you want to water your crops you use gravity feed to water them sparingly.

3. Learn to save money for hard times. This is something everyone on earth is learning now. Though the times you live in might be very good, usually every 30 to 50 years we get into cycles like the present one within any country and this time within the whole world.

4. If you live in the U.S. don't count on Social Security or Unemployment compensation being there  for you always. So, one of the ways to deal with this is to pay into social security when you work for wages as everyone else does. However, at the same time always be working towards owning your own business or businesses that you will run as an investment that you do not pay yourself wages for. In this way you are not paying into Social security if it is not going to be there for you. But you also have paid in some working as you did until you owned your own businesses from your late 20s to early 30s. So if Social Security is there when you reach your 60s or 70s, you can collect something even though you are not planning your whole life around it actually being there.

5. Plan your life as if you will have to work throughout your life. By doing this you won't be disappointed if you actually have to work until you die. However, by thinking like this often you will save enough money to retire in style just because you are more realistic about life all the way through it.
