If you dont have the right mindset to become successful and prosperous, you never will. This is a basic truth. A truth that the communist leaders know. So they teach us literature like Shakespear instead of literature like Napoleon Hill. I've asked a few elders if they have heard of Napoleon Hill or guys like Jim Rohn or some of these mental prosperity teachers, and no one has ever heard of them. That's crazy to me but explains so much.
I was talkikg to my father this weekend. We realized that neither of us were ever shown any books in high school related to getting wealthy. No classes on how stocks/investing works, no classes on Accounting, none on how to build businesses or LLCs, or even understanding the flow of business. No classes even on mental thinking, philosophy, and writing on becoming wealthy. There is STEM but no B. Have any of you noticed this? Does that sound like our schools are pushing kids to believe in the American dream? My father, an incredible man, was the only person who ever told me that I could be as rich as I wanted in America and how great our country was because of capitalism and the right to own businesses. I didnt realize how rare this thinking is. I also realize that most of the teachers who are liberals have a defeatest socialist mindset because they never got rich nor had these teachings either and they depend on the government for paychecks, so it's no wonder that so many of our children are mentally defeated and dont understand wealth, thus begging for socialism.
Thanks to youtube, Ive since been introduced to guys like Jim Rohn, Napoleon Hill, and follow a channel called "The Master Key Society" with old books from early 1900s. I had never heard of them before just last year. I wonder if these kinds of books are what helped people really spark the industrial revolution creating more private rich business owners than ever before. I cant help but think the education department controlled by communist after 1960, never wanted us to research these books and understand the mentality of wealth. This is why so many people are mentally broken, feel like theyll never be anything, never get wealthly, and have this slave mentality. For many of the liberal idiots I talk with, you can clearly see they have a defeatest mentality when it comes to wealth and then say stuff like "youll never get rich", "the system is gamed", "you're just a middle class and always will be". So many defeatest perceptions on getting wealthy and that 100% starts from our schools and their lack of teaching the philosophies of wealth.
We need to figure out how to change this thinking back into the wealthy prosperous mindset. I think it would go a long way into giving kids hope and inspiration again, especially towards capitalism and personal growth. Heres a few channels and videos id recommend watching and sharing to better yourself and change mind into better ways of thinking.
I realize these first 2 is AI splicing things, but they are really really good.

Keep the sheep stupid so they won't know they are getting screwed.
Partly to blame are boomers and stacking the deck against the young
I had a good teacher in accounting class and he taught us investing and money in between accounting lectures.
Thats pretty cool. My public high school, a top school in North GA, didn't teach Accounting or finance, only economics. It's funny how they said Accounting was too complex to learn, but not trigonometry and calculus. Imagine if they taught teens about investing and learning EPS, PEs, and technical chart analysis. Our population would be much more well off in terms of savings.
I had to take accounting in college,and the professor asked where we went to school, he then said I only had to take the exams,as our teacher was that good....
My issue with this line of thinking is it doesn't address the issue of the corruption of the current system
Wage slaving with universal basic income given in the form of child tax credits and deductions
Privatized health care which is actually regulated by the government which only the ultra wealthy can truly afford or substandard public health care funded by the tax payer
Meaningless borders that until now have been poorly enforced for decades
Quote unquote public servants who grow richer through corruption
the Q dream world
End of the globalist banking system Dissolving of the fed Cures unleashed or medbeds changing Healthcare Income and property taxes gone Diamonds returned to the people
the bootstraps mentality isn't compatible with the post Q end goal world. It may help some people get ahead in this old world but from a Q Biblical perspective it is counterproductive.
The money is fake, the numbers are fake and the people in charge are all complicit.
This is an excellent post. Something to drop again every few months to maximize the impact. I had business accounting in high school, but had to be self taught about investing. I have a BS in business, a lot of math, but it didn’t include the most important part in my opinion. That is how to raise capital and how get through the brick walls of the government.
Plus you are never told how to protect the money you worked so hard with government to get, which then gets swooped up by big corporations.
Excellent! I also ran across many of these older books years ago. The Power of Positive Thinking is a great one, very popular in the 50s I think. These ideas are what helped Americans build up such great wealth and capitalist spirit. Socialism is being taught in schools now, and is attractive to kids who want to see “fairness and equality” in the world. Socialism took root in England in the 1920s, (after WW1 decimated and discouraged the whole country) and started their big decline. Can we Americans fight off the socialist propagandists and return to our independent and wealth minded roots?
Communists teach Shakespeare instead of Napoleon Hill to keep us dumb? What a ridiculous thing to say!
Sorry but Romeo and Juliet did exactly 0 to benefit my life in any way, I would have loved to read "Think and Grow Rich" instead.
Honestly, R&J is a comedy right up until Mercutio dies, and then it’s a melodrama where you’re just waiting for the 2 main characters bite the dust.
Really, truly embarrassing, tbh. What do you think Western culture consists of if not the greatest works of art and high culture? I’m not against teaching financial literacy, but to act as if you can be a truly educated Westerner without an appreciation for the cultural heritage of the West is a contradiction in terms.
You are missing the point. Shakespear Is a fun story but It doesnt promote self growth and development. Liberal arts are great in all, but if you havent noticed, liberal arts consist of mostly liberals who make little money who promote socialist and communist ideas.
I think you’re missing the point. Liberal arts consist of commies and degenerates because culturally illiterate philistines masquerading as conservatives have surrendered the humanities to leftists who hate the cultural legacy of the West and who slander our cultural heroes (like Shakespeare) as “dead white males” and “colonizers” who need to be toppled. How are we going to win the culture wars if we let the liberals seize the culture without a fight? If you think Shakespeare doesn't promote self-development and cultural enrichment, then the communists and their barbarian allies have already won. Have you read Allan Bloom? Close-minded conservatives aren’t going to win any wars for the right.
Yeah this thread is kind of embarrassing ngl
Socialism is spreading among the young because the cabal created the economic conditions where it made it damn near impossible to be successful and then used media and pundits to proclaim socialism as the solution. Romeo and Juliet isn't the problem here
You can teach good economics and the social sciences. We have to reclaim western literature and philosophy from the left.
Exactly right. As if financial literacy is more important than learning Shakespeare or literature and art more broadly. Part of our modern predicament is the absolute illiteracy of our kids with regard to the actual substance of their Western heritage, and teaching financial literacy is important as a personal skill set, but it is not going to make our children more civic-minded or better equipped to defend their culture from the philistines of the left. And when a “conservative” can’t articulate a reason to appreciate Shakespeare and the other great poets of the English language, the culture war is already lost.
You arent understanding what I'm saying or the point of the OP. We already get your beloved cultural enrichment by force in public schools putting most of the kids to sleep because they hardly understand the English language as it is now, much less a love story in early english. They DONT get ANY teaching on prosperity and wealth through old 20th and 19th century writings and therefore dont have a clue about acquiring the wealth mindset and thats its possible to actually achieve wealth rather than feel pathetic in life like the liberals want. Id love to take back literature and philosophy but that is something that takes time for the mindsets to change.
You’re the one who made the glib binary between Shakespeare and humanities education on the one hand, and financial literacy on the other—as if those things are mutually exclusive. The problem is shitty public education across the board. Just because you had a semester of some half-assed Shakespeare crash course taught by a bored instructor doesn’t mean that you should trash the whole artistic heritage of the West. All I’m saying is if you aren’t defending Shakespeare, you aren’t much of a champion of Western culture. What is it you propose to put in place of a real, substantial humanities education in Western classics? Jewish coin counting? Sounds like a winning formula, Shylock. Man doesn’t live by bread alone. If your dismissive attitude toward the classics as a conservative is any indication of the “cultural enrichment” we’re already getting “by force” in public schools, we’re doomed!
Why dont you do us a favor then and make a post about why Shakespear is so great for us and the west then? I dont sit around reading his work. It's been over 2 decades since I've read his work, and that was to pass a test. The point I was making is that his work in all seriousness did not do much for me personally and for many others. When they would more than likely been far better off learning how to manage and invest money, and not only that, but to better their lives. The links that I posted are more about bettering your focus and mental attitude towards wealth morose than making money. These philosophies were not taught in high school, which I believe is part of an agenda so that they can be used as good poor weak pawns for the democrats to take advantage of.
Saving and investing were important aspects of Home Ec classes I took as a kid along with budgeting.

If you go to a public school, you will be indoctrinated into what the control sphere wants: useful but idiotic and ignorant fools.
Starting a business requires a certain amount of strength, both mental and emotional, in order to be successful. It's what allows business owners to take risks that most others are now uncomfortable with taking.
My dad told me to take a semester of typing and a semester of Accounting when I was in high school (high school was mid-80's for me). I took typing but was in "advanced math" and couldn't fit Accounting in. I regretted that many years later. When my older son started public HS in 2017, I told him essentially the same thing (substitute keyboarding for typing), only to find out his HS didn't have an Accounting class (others in the county did), and they did not offer keyboarding at all. Ridiculous. That's why the younger one is in private now.
I will look into Hill and Rohn. I have never heard of either, and can definitely use some wealth mentality.
I think you will love listening to these that I've shared. Listen to a little bit daily. I am a Controller by trade and taught myself accounting after college. Its a great career choice.
If you do want to learn accounting or share with your kids. I recommend watching this channel. Its a full class with a great instructor. It helped me a lot.

You should read the book--The Instant Millionaire--by Mark Fisher. It changed my mindset and opened the door to so much. I highly recommend it!
Herein lies the genius of the “Trump Account,” which is basically a investing portfolio for kids as soon as birth:
Libtarbs will NEVER use one, just by the name alone;
A max18 year head start of compound interest. Take full advantage of the percentage.
The turning point is to tell the kid once they take control at age 18: yo, you can YOLO and spend it all, or you keep hanging on to it until you really need it. The more you wait, the faster it grows. At the end, the individual makes the choice, and not the f’ing government.
But a good-looking account is not a reason to slack off! In the meantime, learn a trade, like fixing things. Even dishwashing, vacuuming and cleaning are skills. I can NEVER fold clothes like they do in GAP, and my wife said I fold like shit. SOMEDAY, okay? lol
There is a lot to this, and it's definitely something I agree with. It works. Getting the mind into a positive feedback loop and a true feeling of abundance goes a long way. Gratitude is paramount. Thank God for everything. So many little things he gives us, that life would be harder without.
I have never heard of Jim Rohn, I will need to dig into them and see how good their ideas are.
Napoleon Hill is a MUST for every single person. I loved his book The Law of Success in 16 Lessons. I got one with a purple cover with an audio book on CD, it was the "Updated for the 21st Century Edition IIRC
I can't recommend How to Win Friends & Influence People by Dale Carnegie enough. It should be an easy weekend read for most & it is critical to keeping those who oppose your views friendly enough that you can help them see the truth
I also strongly suggest an English copy of The Law by Frederick Bastiat
There are many others, but those are a good initial dig.
The Naked Communist by Cleon Skousen
Rich Dad, Pood Dad by Robert Kiyosaki
The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith (shortened title)
The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx
Speaking of knowing your enemy, a book that was often discussed here is The Art of War by Sun Tzu
I haven't dug into The 5 Rings yet, but my mentors that suggested Sun Tzu strongly recommended it as well. I need to get a copy and read it sometime... My shame knows no bounds 😔
I wandered into a USSR forum on Reddit over the weekend.
The posters there are kookoo delusional commie apologists. They claim that critics of communism don't understand what "Authoritarianism" means.
When someone is that delusional, there's no conversation to be had. They already handed over their critical thinking to a hive mind.
For all their criticisms of holocaust deniers (which is valid), commie genocide deniers are far worse because that delusion is still causing destruction in our current times.
Rohn’s Five Major Pieces to the Life Puzzle really helped me when I was floundering after college and professional degree, market had tanked, loans coming due, lucky to find PT work in the mall. It’s amazing how quickly applying concepts and reframing changed my life. Within a handful of months got a better job in my field and ended up meeting my husband. That book can easily be read in 1-2 sittings.
Couple this with the fact we've been in an economic depression that nobody mentions and very little disposable income to go around and it just makes socialism and the basic universal income plank even stronger...
No paper routes, no available part time jobs because immigrants, not a whole lot out there for kids who even want to work in many places...
I just want to add my two cents here. I'm a school bus driver. I drive all grades High school, middle school, Elementary School. I also happen to be in deep blue New Jersey! This would tend to make one believe that the young people these days don't have any real sense of what's going on in our political world. I'm here to say that would be an incorrect statement. These kids hate the left there is nothing liberal about them. We don't have an issue here with transgenders because the kids understand who they are and that you can't change your sex. Some of the discussions I hear on my middle school bus or by far the most interesting Gage of our young people. Don't lose hope Pedes. A lot of these young people see the truth and aren't afraid to talk about it. If it can happen in this state I'm sure it's happening a lot of others that aren't as blue as this one is. I get a good feeling about these kids the education system may have failed them but somehow they got the memo. Blessings frens 🙏
someone in the 90s or early 2000s did a study on Shakespeare and morality and it sounded good. The overall promise, though that public (government) schools do not teach hard work and success and free enterprise is true. they teach in government or social studies, justice and welfare welfare to promote their fiewof equality
an educational comedy style documentary “Oh Canada our Bought and Sold out Land”) covers some important aspects about money & central banking that need to be taught in conjunction with the virtues of hard work and successful free enterprise. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbACCGf6q-c (the first hour is pretty good. I would skip the second hour.)
It is working so well in Cuba tho'. /s
School choice matters.
Our schools dont teach anything but perverted crap. Time to shut down public education
