Home Ownership is a trap designed by banks and those they’re in cahoots with. And it’s deeply-ingrained.
My dad still gets on me to buy a house because “it’s an asset”.
It’s an asset for the banks and state government. Not me.

The only thing that holds value on a house is the land its on
After reading the novel and the reactions to it and the subliminal in general i would like to put my 2 cents as well.
Nrich should be doing what its supposed to do. Distrupt the market, understand the rules and change the game. The change in such ” game ” could be partially or fully different from the rules of the ” Old money ” or not. In the end of the day, money is money.
While Vesper realises at the top of his penthouse that he is meant for more. To make a positive change, that could only be relatable when he had his success. I dont want this sub to be 100% good guy making money. I want it to be a 100% making money while directing towards making changes in the world.
Vesper made his initail success with commerse which could be argued to be ” not changing the world ”. He later made his big money with the A.I horse betting modules which are not changing the world either. Only by making it through both does he now posses the experiance, insight and means to make a positive change.
What i am trying to say is making money is the priority and that hyper focusing on using only the most moral and ethical of ways might be more of a hindrance.
Anyone wasting their money on anything is their fault. Cant really blame apple for the people buying their next idestinguishable iphone when the people are paying.
Even land is only ever an asset if you’re leasing it out to someone else paying you for the privilege of using it.
That’s why McDonald’s has so many stores. They’re wealthy not because of the restaurant but because of how much land they own
McDs is in the real estate business. They get lease payments from the franchisees. If they stop paying, they get replaced with someone new.
Honestly, it’s because most people don’t explore anything outside of their rather narrow viewpoints. Auras, for example, aren’t even considered esoteric anymore. You can find scientific papers describing them, as well as books written by scientists.
Dr. Joe Dispenza discusses them in “Becoming Supernatural,” (https://www.amazon.com/Becoming-Supernatural-Common-People-Uncommon/dp/1401953093) stating that they’ve been able to detect an individual’s electromagnetic aura five miles away.
There’s multiple companies that creating a device that can reconstruct and record dreams from devices placed on your skin, and even MIT has jumped into this research (Overview ‹ Dormio: Interfacing with Dreams — MIT Media Lab).
This technology is clearly converting energy into images.
Ancient wisdom from almost every religion and philosophy discusses the power of thought and in many Buddhist texts discusses the notion that thought extends beyond the body.
And considering the body is electric, in the presence of electricity, there’s always what? Magnetism. And where there’s electromagnetism, there’s data and information.
Everyone is looking for “secrets” and “mysteries,” but the truth of the matter (imo) is — nature is already telling you how it works. The solution to the “mystery” is deep research, cultivating a discerning mind and embracing the ability to change your mindset.
No ancient formulas and rituals needed. These things are remnants of a time long before the Internet age changed how information is digested.
I don’t know if you realize how true and how far reaching your words are. Or maybe you do…
I have done nothing, since I’m just meditating on the words of those who are far greater than I. Like, the very notion of “mental alchemy.”
“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”
This is from the Book of Romans. Does this not describe mental alchemy from the perspective of devotion?
Couldn’t the atheist use this same wisdom from the perspective of the humanist?
“Life and death is in the power of the tongue.”
From Psalms. Isn’t that the “law of attraction?”
One day, the “law of attraction” will be as well studied as elementary physics. Oh wait, it’s already being explored, we just call it “quantum physics.”
This is the common trap “asset”
It’s only an asset if it generates money. Otherwise it’s a liability. Your own home only costs money.
I kinda regret it but at least I can look into these car subscriptions now. That seems super efficient.
Becoming supernatural was a great book.
Yeah, but certain houses go to in prices.
So my gf father bought a house sold it a year or two later, like 30 years ago. And then he calculated the price it had gone up and came to the conclusion that the other new owner earned 5000$ a month on just the price growth.
Not that into real estate, but houses are a moneymaking asset then no? It’s like stocks.
Unless you have become a warzone and your house is destroyed.
This only applies if you got a house in a good area that actually does go up in price and you plan on selling it.
Most ppl did neither
They just pay for it all their life and can’t move or change things.
Sounds like a good plan
When you live in a big city and have an apartment usually the prices go up after some time.
I mean here the price for some after four years is almost doubled.
I see, absolutely, great points. It depends on the areas and if that area grows.
It never is so simple.
For example, I managed to buy an apartment in my twenties. I was working shitjobs and at the family business at the time. Here in Finland you could get a decent mortgage for your first apartment.
Later I sold it. Got some 20k € on my account afterwards. Went with my wife to China for 1,5 years. I used that money to buy lots of marketing courses. Studied like hell for that time, with almost zero contact to even my closest friends. Total monk mode.
I was broke when I got back to Finland.
BUT
Within a few months I got the FB ads to work for the family business. Managed to get some 300k € in funding.
Was stuck at 250k €/ year when EoG was released. 4 years ago?
And as they say, the rest is history.
@Jouissance when vesper talks about old money, I have a feeling he’s talking about these “old money”, the ones who inherited the wealth:
When in reality someone like John D. Rockefeller or Andrew Carnegie are the real old money. No inheritance and all wealth made was a direct work from them.
The mind is so important, if you want to see beyond the obvious and innovate you need to open your mind to stretch out and reach into the beyond where an endless well of creativity lies ready and waiting to be manifested into the world by its conduits (human beings) you can connect with this source, the source is not an independent contractor in that it needs incarnated living beings to make an impact, the ideas are not yours, you are simply drawing from a source of inspiration, but the creation is yours if it is you who makes it happen!
Your imagination can take the creative energies and give them form any way you like…
The revelations of wealth, in my opinion, should consider the truth that there is in fact an infinite amount of wealth and abundance available in the universe and that by touching that part of life you will begin to see and create it everywhere.
But it is a Spiritual space and without actually feeling that abundance you will not attract the ideas and see the probabilities in the perception of your mind.
So this is my contribution to this wealth series to consider the Spiritual aspect of creating wealth and perfectly matching it with the physical counterparts of a success mindset and the skill/talents-building necessary to make things happen.
