Words of wisdom from the Greatest Generation: bsky.app/profile/blis...

Yeah I don't like the idea of giving to people. But I do like the idea of being charitable with your wealth when you get older.

This is such good wisdom! My family will use money to control or tie strings. Or they’ll beg to borrow money, then cause drama when you ask them to repay. I found so much more peace when I started only giving money away as a gift, no strings attached. I also stopped agreeing to co-sign for anyone.

Please grant me 100K That's all I need. Thank you very much.

Admirably approach. You can't take wealth with you to the next life.

Great words

Stellar human

Give away everything over $10m

We are lower middle class but will send money to family in Brazil when needed. No expectations. Your reflections is exactly how we feel and do.

I thought you were "my kind of person", and you proved me right with your generosity.😘😉

“When you’ve done well and another has benefited by it, why like a fool do you look for a third thing on top—credit for the good deed or a favor in return?” — Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

I love how succinctly you define that: "money is nothing but the transfer of time and work to other people." I kinda wish it was a reflection of effort and knowledge also

I am generous w my sons & grandchildren I do expect a Thank you text. Mostly I get the Thank you. Sometimes I do not

The simple act of giving! What’s the term for that warm-cozy-feeling one gets when we help others, specially those in need?

when you give, give.

My only condition was to pass it on if & when they could and it is never spoken of again.

It’s the best thing to give freely.

I love this, I do the same... My problem is never the giving. I give freely. My problem is when they return to the well..... Over and over and over again.
