My Declaration of Independence

Freedom in the making

As I review my earnings here on Cubfinance and continue to scale up my earnings by moving my crypto here... slowly scaling up my operations here to earn more Cub, I am quietly celebrating.

There is a small party going on inside me, with cake, ice cream, streamers and confetti...

It may seem strange, but I have been looking for something different for 3 years and this may be it.

I have a good paying job, house and kids, plus a car that works. And I enjoy good health.

Certainly many would say I am blessed, but I am thirsty for more.

I want independence from the forces which control me, my time, my work, my money and essentially my life...

The Trap...

I once met a man who said
-Don’t take a job it’s a trap
-Dint take a paycheck it’s a trap
-Don’t open a bank account it’s a trap
-Don’t take out a loan it’s a trap
-Don’t buy a house with a mortgage it’s a trap

I thought he was insane or mentally unstable

It turns out that in a metaphorical sense he was correct, and in a virtual sense he was correct..

I have a job, a paycheck, a mortgage, etc.. and I now realize that taking a job means I will never have control over the method by which I provide goods and services.

However...
I have a job. Which symbolizes my dependence on my employer and relinquishment of control to my employer over where I work, when I work, how I work and how much my services are worth.

I will never control the flow of money paid to my employer for the hoods and services I produce and provide. I will always be at the mercy of my employer to work, earn a living and get paid. Every so often my employer flex’s their muscle to remind me they are in charge, and they can control me.

I have a paycheck, which symbolizes my portion or share of the money paid for the hoods and services I produce. And I have little control over the determination of my how much my share is and how much hoes to those who produce no goods and provide no services.

I have a bank account, which my employer sends my money to, and a bank which controls my funds. I feel like a child not having my money come directly to me. It would be preferable to receive my funds directly, but that’s not how this system works.
