money..is it everything 4 u..??

"Place a banknote on the wall above your bed" they say "and be sure to sleep well knowing that riches are soon to come your way". Well maybe life is easier in dream world but in a world where money is by some accounts the most worthwhile description of an individual how can we look to a future more prosperous, enjoyable and certain than bankers and the like see appropriate. In a world where money appears to reign supreme would it be worth our whiles, those of us that are less monastic (monastic in the modern remunerative sense of the word, monestic maybe, why not moonestic then!), would it be worth our whiles pursuing an education in banking, or one similar where we can surround ourselves with the type that do well ("well off") and in the prime of our lives at least we may be in the enviable position of being able to take out of life what we are capable of putting in. I'm not taking a broad swipe at bankers I might say the name fell on my lap, but it's true I find a way to take my argument to its most expedient end walla another paragraph. So I was saying.. about the moonestic faith with Dollar signs from Kingstown to Kuwait, will the Almighty tempt fate and pull the magic carpet from under our feet until we accept that numbers were not invented by bankers and we really do get from a to b using a magic carpet and b to c using a car which in fact is a magic carpet in disguise. If life was a moot court, and I should point out that it isn't for the benefit of the victims of those with a dead pan sense of humour, then I expect that justice (which is a sign paramount to what is good in our lives) and money (which is one might say a sign that points to itself) are inseparable descriptions of the same thing. Given that justice is, in the first instance, a natural process and subservient on the promise of money through the passage of time only since money became the most convenient way of totaling a person, quite possibly there is hope for the future of mankind outside of banking and theatre after all, although one would imagine that both theatre and banking will continue to hold sway at locations worth visiting. However whilst it is the case that we live under the umbrella of a magisterial court in the form of a democratically elected government of a capitalist state the servants of which pave the way for the advancement of people towards a golden age of intelligence and prosperity (have we taken a wrong turn somewhere!), it would be worth my while (perhaps I will be rewarded rather than another impostor) pointing out that money stands as a commodity AFTER the event of real people who live real lives and have original ideas. The value of money would be obsolete it would hardly have been invented without the foundations upon which it stands. It's purpose remains to serve the interests of life and all that is included in the definition. Whose burden will it be to repair the theatre come what may when the bankers can't afford to print anymore money? And having said that much what more can we say about the Rodger Ramjet scandal?
