Every day from 9 to 5 or 30% of your life you spend working, in exchange for money, which end up in your bank. This represents a significant portion of your waking hours dedicated to generating income. The money you earn is deposited into your bank, where it's held for future use.
The rest of the day from 5 to 9 or 70% of your life, your money work for your bank which may issue loans yielding interest of which you receive nothing or a small fraction. During this time, your bank may use your 100% of your deposited funds to issue loans to other individuals or businesses. These loans generate interest, which the bank keeps. As a depositor, you may receive a small portion of this interest, typically in the form of a savings account interest rate. However, this interest often doesn't keep pace with inflation, meaning the purchasing power of your money may decrease over time.
This scenario highlights a common financial dynamic where individuals trade a significant portion of their time for income, only to see that income potentially lose value due to factors beyond their control. It raises questions about the effectiveness of traditional financial systems and the need for alternative approaches that prioritize the growth and preservation of individuals' wealth.
