Greetings steemians, hope it's been a beautiful month, we're gradually getting to the end of April. I'll like to appreciate @sahmie and Steem Fashion & Style for their relentless efforts in keeping this contest and community going respectively.
Growth vs Knowledge |
|---|
Knowledge refers to a vast insight and understanding in various or specific fields. This is gained through learning and experiencing the world around us. Wealth is abundance of resources predominantly money and possession. Unlimited Knowledge would mean an invaluable access to ideas, information etc while Unlimited wealth is a very rich base of financial resources anf possession.Unlimited refers to an unending supply of anything, so an infinite amount of possession and an infinite wisdom and understanding.
I for one would favour unlimited Knowledge to unlimited wealth, but the price to gain knowledge isn't exactly easy. On a balance scale of gaining both at ease, a person who is knowledgeable would know how to make wealth, sustain wealth and be okay.
There's a popular Biblical character: King Solomon, who was said to posses the greatest wisdom known to mankind, one thing he possessed along side was his wealth. We read a story of how people paid him numerous homage just to enquire of him. We live in an age where people get paid for value, be it normal office jobs, online jobs and what have you, all of these was made possible by an idea. An idea opens you up for so many opportunities that you'll be able to properly control the use of money.
Personal Growth |
|---|
Unlimited wealth causes affluence and a buoyant life, sort immediate needs and worries even sorting out futuristic demands as the supply is always there. Knowledge is required to properly equate how this wealth is channeled to adequate use. One's personal growth can be said to have climaxed at a point where the person's decision making is prudent, smart and articulate. Wealth can open a lot of opportunities but the wisdom you posses would give you the ability to sustain and grow above levels. There's been some cases where children of wealthy parents can't seem to defend projects they handle as they could always source for anyone to do it and pay off the person.
Happiness |
|---|
With knowledge of photography, one can create a stream of wealth
A person who always presents a value would be able to make wealth and that's the power of knowledge. One might say one who's very knowledgeable would have the challenge of overload of information and the challenge to apply what has been learnt due to the cost to implement. A knowledgeable person knows and sees beyond the foreseeable present and knows that it's possible to start from somewhere and evolve along the way.
Happiness is achieved doing something someone's loves and appeals to the person, money is not necessarily the source to happiness as very wealthy people find it hard to trust people, happiness is best a shared feeling.
Societal contribution |
|---|
I daresay that over the course of history, the people who have given most to the society are not the wealthy ones but the knowledgeable ones, from the times where men sought for the freedom of their nations, to improving the value of their national base and currency etc. Skilled knowledgeable people got to helm of affairs and started a chain of events that has caused a lot of successes in this modern day.
Knowledge is very important to a person's growth, fulfillment and an opportunity for a lasting impact, Wealth provides the means to enjoy life at its fullest, as much as this priced enjoyment is, a knowledgeable person would always find a way to survive
