Poverty is the condition of being without education, medical care, possessions, shelter, adequate food, or money. Ds it seem like a glorious lifestyle? It is a life full of worries about lack of money and daily survival.

Only one kind of person worries about money as much as those who live in extreme poverty. That being - the extremely wealthy worry about losing their money. Why do we still burn oil? The extremely wealthy are afraid to divesify any investments into wind, water, and solar energy. They have made so much money doing business as usual. Hence, the rich worry about losing money on an investment.

Since most of us are not extremely poor or rich, why worry about money at all? If you have a family, you need money to live. If you teach yoga for a living, you have to charge something. Why worry about it? Just charge enough, so you are not living in poverty. Nobody is going to give you a medal for being poor. Only a fool would volunteer to live in poverty.
