Aren't you tired of big banks and companies making money off of you?



When I was a kid, my mom and I opened up a bank account together in the hopes of teaching me the responsibilities of saving money. Of course, she had to open the account because I was only a mere child at 10 years old. Once I got the taste of this type of practice of collecting money I did not stop there. By the time I was 13 years old, I saved up $7,000. If you really think about it, then you will soon realize that I could have probably paid for my entire Undergraduate Degree in English with that money. Because I wanted a car as much as my brother I gave my brother $3,000 so that he could buy a second car, my brother needed a car to drive to and from work. As a 13-year-old, I finance his car with no expectations or payback whatsoever. My mom claims that my brother paid for my graduation party with the money that he was supposed to pay me back. I do not want payback. Nor will I ever ask for anyone to pay me back. Keep in mind, that this same year, I had all my relatives finance my awesome set of hockey skates made by Charger. Mind you back in those days it was $76. If you look these same skates up today, then it will cost roughly about $50 at the most. Fast-forward until today and I cannot even ice skate because of Cervical Spondylosis, but I must say Mahalo Nui Loa to all my relatives who financed me.

Here is where I save all my money now: Albert

Adam and Eve

Stuck Adam jay-walked across the street to see what was going on in the park next to the jungle gym. And as a terrible child, he would often get into mischief by climbing up the cafeteria roof with his cousin Theo. Theo did not have any friends of his own, so Adam had to babysit Theo whenever he saw him. Today was different. The day was hot, and Adam and Theo would sit under the portables on these types of days. King Kalakaua Intermediate school was always empty in the middle of summer. Many kids hung out on the Portable stairs and smoked cigarettes. Adam was nine years old, already at that age where he already knew the difference between right and wrong. “Hey Theo, let's look around to see if we can find hiding spaces,” Adam looked around the delivery dock for the cafeteria. He was trying to find a way in. He was very skilled at getting into places he was not supposed to go into. He walked around the building looking for some clue, a doorway, or a secret passageway to get them int...

Gatekeepers: Arbitrary Obstacles

From the moment we are born, we are expected to learn how to crawl, walk, speak, and even communicate with our parents. Subsequently, we are compelled to communicate with strangers who ultimately become our friends and learn about our families. Next, we are expected to study diligently, earn good grades, get a good job, and then work for 50 years to save enough for retirement, ideally reaching 90 years old and having lived a good life. But is this truly a good life? Why must we work for 50 years to enjoy the fruits of our labor? For most of our lives, we are working to help another person get rich. We work to make investors richer, or we work for a non-profit organization to make a better life for those less fortunate. After being laid off from a good job after 14.5 years, totaling 23 years of my life, I began to realize that this pathway is a deception. It is a scam to hold you back in life from achieving your true happiness. As someone who has never been in need, I found myself requi...

Alarming Conspiracy or Real Catastrophe?

Photo by Viktor Hesse on Unsplash I will explain two things weighing on my mind right now.  First, some posts claim that # Francehasfallen . There are countless videos on social media and YouTube, both Twitter and TikTok alike, that display people stealing, looting, and terrorizing other human beings for WHAT!!! I am humiliated that humans can do these horrible things to each other. They do this anonymously because they are wearing COVID precautionary masks and get away with this. Next, I watched a YouTube video about the CIA suppressing information that seemed totally irrelevant to suppress. It was the particular video that really blew my mind about human existence. If you want to watch it. Click HERE . This will give you a unique perspective on our existence. The concept is that the world will experience a polar shift, and we will experience a Great Reset. The idea is that we should make ourselves as comfortable as we can. This is not good news, and no one will survive. Why are ...
