The Rich Man's Wealth


Wealth comes, and never goes, for wealth is more than just the riches brought by opportunity and the wind. Wealth is the time you put into work and business as you strive to multiply relationships and gold. You create new relationship as your gold labours for you, seizing the opportunities that are brought by the wind, and as you heed the voice of the Opportunist. Your gold accumulates over time, causing increase to your possessions, creating even more relationships in the form of laborers, stewards, enterprises, and friends.

It is true, “money answers all things”. This happens as your wealth begins to solve problems around you – in your house, in your city, within your boundaries. Your gold extends your boundaries, as you stretch and move to the right and to the left. In each direction, your wealth speaks resolution of ancient or recent problems that have been a menace to the people thereof.

“The rich man’s wealth is his city”, for it keeps him secure and is a foundation for the nation he is building for his descendents. A city is a fort, a place of trade, refuge, and communion with those close to the heart. A city, fortified, defends you from harm when the devourer attacks from all directions. A city keeps safe young ones, as they are protected from venturing into the wild. A city hides thoughts, concepts, and things that aught not to be known by everyone, lest they violate the beauty origination. Bandits, harsh winds, war, disease, and misfortune are all kept away with a city. Your wealth is your city.

Wealth is not an overnight event. It is an effort and dedication, whose change or reward comes gradually over time, as one engages in trade, savings, wise change, and consistency. Cities, answers, are all possible for the man who gives himself to find and work at creating and keeping wealth.

.CO.ZW Cyberspace: What has Happened?

Ko Zvaitasei? Is what my mother would shout out across the corridor, as Isabel, and I fought over one thing and the next. Her concern was harmony and happiness in the home. As my mother’s concern, Ko Zvaitasei, what has happened to Internet in Zimbabwe ? Internet has become a nightmare for the masses of Zimbabwe – Entrepreneurs, Consumers, Marketers, Government departments, and the IT Industry itself. The population of websites in Zimbabwe is less than mire 500, 000, making eCommerce a waste of effort. Those who look after websites, are not playing properly with those who make websites. Those who own websites are not satisfied with what they have. Those who consume website content are not interested with .CO.ZW sites as they are with .CO.ZA or .COMs. What has happened?

Webcology: Types of Websites

Websites are different, derived from their purpose. There are informative, Transactional, Referral, Behavioural, and Mixed.
