💡 Money, Life Energy, and Illusions: What the Orange Hatter Reading Club Discussed 💡
Ever feel like you're putting in all the work, but inflation and taxes are draining your progress? Our reading club is tackling this head-on through The Hidden Cost of Money by @Seb Bunney, and the discussions have been eye-opening. Last night we covered the Forward, Preface, Introduction and Chapter 1.
🎢 One member shared a conversation with her son, who is fully invested in his work, calling it “Disneyland.” He’s pouring all his waking hours into the job, believing the payoff will be financial security. But what he doesn’t realize is that he’s living an illusion. Behind the beautiful facade, inflation is quietly siphoning away his life energy, making it harder for him to ever achieve the security he’s working so hard for.
💸 Another member expressed her growing frustration at how her hard-earned money is being stolen both covertly (through inflation) and overtly (through ever-increasing taxes). She can’t read without feeling the injustice of it all.
🧠 We also touched on the powerful idea that “you can only fix a problem if you know what the problem is.” And here’s a big one: absolutely EVERYTHING is downstream of money. When our purchasing power erodes, what’s really being stolen is our time—the very essence of our life energy.
These conversations transform how we see the world, money, and our lives.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re spinning your wheels or fighting against forces you can’t quite identify, this space is for you.
