My World

Welcome to my world. In my world, there are friendly people and mean people, funny people and serious people, determined people and people who wouldn’t do work if it were the last thing on earth they could do. There are actors and celebrities and presidents and CEOs, and there are lawyers and teachers and plumbers and cashiers. The people come in many colors and from many places. But as different as we all are, it seems that most of us share something in common: a penchant for making money.


The only meaningful characteristic that separates the people from my world is whether they are honest or if they know how to get what they want. The two aren’t mutually exclusive, but they might as well be. Lying, cheating, scamming, stealing; these actions pervade my society and no end is in sight. The bottom line is that these things benefit those who can pull it off.  The people in my world are too vulnerable. Everyone wants to make money, but only the cunning liars wins, and everyone else loses. In my world good guys finish last. My world seems pretty messed up, right? Open your eyes, because it’s your world too.
