Has anyone considered the practical considerations of simply manifesting $1 million out of thin air? Until recently, the banking laws required that every deposit of $10K or higher be reported to the government. Under the Patriot Act the amount has been lowered to $5K. I think. So imagine what would happen if $1 million suddenly appeared in your bank account or you arrived at the teller's cage with it in a bag. Think of all the alarm bells that would go off. Luceee, you godda lotta 'splainin' to doooooooo.

I suppose you could keep it under your mattress and buy the Ferrari for cash. But then the dealership would have to report such a suspicious transaction.

I think the confuson is about wishful thinking and taking full responsibility for your existance. Anyone who says they wouldn't like $1M to magically appear in their account is either in denial or lives in monk town. I would love nothing better than money to come into my life as easily as possible that's why I buy lottery tickets. But I don't depend on them, I like the idea my desires may manifest as easy as possible, but I still work on my plan to achieve them using other methods. On a side note about banks and money. Banks are allowed by law to invent money on the money they have stored in the federal reserve. If a bank has $50M in the fed, it can loan (invent by definition of a percentage) $500M to borrowers, without touching the $50M. They physically invent the money, create it in your account, but pushing the keys on a keyboard, they never physically had the $450M, but their borrowers now owe it back PLUS interest. Governments don't control the money system, local and world banks do. Nice work if you can get i Jeff |

I've heard of examples of people finding a large sum of money alongside the road. Like some kids found 250,000. Their mother turned it over to the authorities, and they did the ussual search as to where this money came from, and also did the thing where if the money is not claimed within a certain period of time then the money becomes the property of the finder. These boys got to keep the money, as no one else claimed it. My theory is it was some under the table dealings going on, and something must have gone wrong, and whoever had the money ditched it and then couldn't find it later, or perhaps the ditcher met an untimly end, and no one ever connected this money with that whole scene, and so the money came from somewhere, but now belonged to no one, and the boys found it. |

I kind of wish the intention-manifestation focus hadn't been about money. I was a little surprised that the Million Dollar Experiment came from Steve because the truth is that if he (and many others) were serious about it the experiment would have lasted a day at the most. My understanding is that at the time of the experiment Steve owned 2 profitable businesses and Erin had a successful business of her own, the couple has an excellent credit rating, "good 6 figure income" and their home was paid off. Anyone in that position can walk into their bank and borrow a million dollars. Bang! -a million dollars, manifested in a day - tax free! In that sense I guess I agree with the original poster's comment. How badly did the participants really want that million dollars? The Million Dollar experiment was a success but I think in the opposite direction of what Steve was hoping for. It proved that passive intention-manifestation is pointless. Repeating the mantra was effectively on par with "wishing" for a million dollars. Had anyone coupled the I-M practice with personal action I think there would be a few millionaires on that list. |
