Perils of assets classes

Imperialism meant to take the possessions as much as possible. When the ideology of imperialism thrived at the period where everyone considered having more land is the sign of power and wealth, it is quite natural to have such a bias. The war were in the name of lands, bribes were measured by how much acres therein and certainly the wealth both of an individual and a kingdom. This was practised from the very beginning and multiple centuries before. The more land you own, the richer you are. Because there is no equivalent alternative to measure wealth. It took centuries to sway away from this notion. Slowly people started believe in assets. By then the most favourable one was gold (among matals). So the greedy ones went to hunt for gold, they dig deeper and deeper until they found some trace and they did.
But with a short period of time, when compared with the duration at which people veered from lands to gold, people started believing in more assets classes are preferably the ownership of growing businesses. If we look at the top rich people, they are not gold miners or holders, they are the business owners and professional investors. The asset class has changed dramatically. The newly discovered ones are getting more attention and the older ones are devaluing itself. Now everyone knows, in order to be super rich, you have to be an entrepreneur either through building or investing.

Society can be a trap

There are lot of traps out there. Only after falling or getting out of that trap we realize that we were bondaged for a very long time. We were born into the society trap where everything is predefined. Everything is written and all we have to do is to obey them. We are not allowed to wander with our will and certainly not with any other rules. Predefined are the prime ones. When we look at those cultural scribings of activism, we could see that everything is limiting and designed to refrain is from our true potential. The hardest thing is not being unaware of this trap, it is being in the trap even after knowing you are in a trap. This makes us to think differently. Because we found something, probably, no one around found. It would be game changer for everyone. It could transform the society and culture, paving a more promising future for the generations to come. But what happen when we introduce this theory to those blind people is quite depressing. They mock and joke you, laugh a...
