ive　and　who　will　die？〃　They　make　those　decisions　purely　on　how　much　money　they　have　and　how　old　the　patients　are。　If　the　patient　is　old；　they　often　will　give　the　medical　care　to　someone　younger。　The　older　poor　patient　gets　put　to　the　back　of　the　line。 So　just　as　the　rich　can　afford　better　education；　the　rich　will　be　able　to　keep　themselves　alive；　while　those　who　have　little　wealth　will　die。

So　I　wonder；　are　workers　looking　into　the　future　or　just　until　their　next　paycheck；　never　questioning　where　they　are　headed？

When　I　speak　to　adults　who　want　to　earn　more　money；　I　always　remend　the　same　thing。　I　suggest　taking　a　long　view　of　their　life。　Instead　of　simply　working　for　the　money　and　security；　which　I　admit　are　important；　I　suggest　they　take　a　second　job　that　will　teach　them　a　second　skill。 Often　I　remend　joining　a　work　marketing　pany；　also　called　multilevel　marketing；　if　they　want　to　learn　sales　skills。　Some　of　these　panies　have　excellent　training　programs　that　help　people　get　over　their　fear　of　failure　and　rejection；　which　are　the　main　reasons　people　/j　are　unsuccessful。　Education　is　more　valuable　than　money；　in　the　long　run。

When　I　offer　this　suggestion；　I　often　hear　in　response；　〃Oh　that　is　too　much　hassle；〃　or　〃I　only　want　to　do　what　I　am　interested　in。〃

To　the　statement　of　〃It's　too　much　of　a　hassle；〃　I　ask；　〃So　you　would　；　rather　work　all　your　life　giving　50　percent　of　what　you　earn　to　the　government'〃　To　the　other　statement…〃I　only　do　what　I　am　interested　in〃…I　say；　〃I'm　not　interested　in　going　to　the　gym；　but　I　go　because　I　want　to　feel　better　and　live　longer。〃

Unfortunately；　there　is　some　truth　to　the　old　statement　〃You　can't　teach　an　old　dog　new　tricks。〃　Unless　a　person　is　used　to　changing；　it's　hard　to　change。
