one hundred people
Ten dollars per week each
One thousand dollars per week
As a group
Fifty two thousand dollars per year
I spoke to a Manager of a nursing home
who stated
"Administration costs would be to high"
granted looking at it from a managers
perspective wage's accounting staff
savings would be consumed investments lost
Yet looking at the problem
from a family perspective
a hundred family members
could vote to create a board
family could then vote for a chairman
secretary family that volunteer
to take on the jobs without pay
at the start family looking after family
family using computer
could keep track of the money
put out a news letter/prospectus
to show individual and family investments
It could be run like a social club
Idea on investment could be put forward
by family member with the board
choosing what they thought was the best
Investing week by week
building family wealth
at some point in their future
money coming from companies
Might provide an income
where those voluntary workers
can then earn a wage
from the ever growing investments
Granted the weekly investment
is just a seed and needs to be protected
but companies like cleaning agency's
need manager that are paid
In the work place
the idea could be started
like a social club
with employees
Taking on voluntary
positions as the board of trustees
again putting out newsletter/perspectives'
showing individual/Group investments
Granted it would not work
from a top down perspective
where you have to account for costs
of staffing and control
Ten dollars per week
used to be the amount
staff put into social clubs
for Christmas celebrations
Invested in wealth creation
it could do so much more
Imagine a whole world
becoming organised
to make these investments work
Universities bringing groups together
using group investment to build companies
Restaurants, solar power, hospitals and farms
Granted Co-operatives don't work
you need to put one person at the top
with a board to make decisions and act
to many cooks spoil the broth
Unless you have one person
that can make decisions
you paralyse your companies
with conflicting ideas
we need to vote
for the person we trust
and vote against
the person that fails
from the little seed
grows the great oak tree
your ten dollars is the seed
overcoming world problems
Is the great oak tree
every company needs
to improve their economy
working together we can improve
