The
question “What work do you do?” puts constraints on your earning ability. It is
true that we live in a world where most people have to be their own financial
catalyst. Where people have to be productive assets. But we also live in a
world where you can gradually shed those constraints. Where it is possible for
money to make money. For Capital to Labour. You can separate the questions, “What
do you do?” and “How do you finance what you do?”. What you do doesn’t have to
be filtered through the constraints that are necessary to make money. Money
making needs something you can count. Not everything can be counted. Money making
cares about supply and demand. Value is personal. Money making requires conspicuously
demonstrable value. Value can sit beyond words. Lie beyond numbers. Dance
beyond containers. You don’t have to be the Best Actor in your money-making
story. “What needs doing?”.
"Weaver" - Vincent van Gogh (1884)
