In reality, money is an institution.

Do you think that 90 percent of the world is poor and getting their labor and resources stolen because they are not "thinking right". I don't think so.
I never said money or wealth was a mindset. I said there were 2 mindsets, meaning paradigms or perceptions towards money. Money is nothing more than an agreed value system used as a tool for society. Most money doesn't even exist such as FIAT money.

As for the 90 percent of the world that you call poor; I would ask you to define poor. I believe the richest person in the world is he who has nothing to lose. Do you measure wealth in dollars and cents or by freedom and liberty? Do you own your possesions or they own you?

What were you saying about 90 per cent of the world?
