Ignoring the Economics for the Finance is Dangerous

Everyone wants to be financially independent and strong. And, there is no sin in this. Nowadays, the status of the people is measured by the scale of money. The more money you have, the bigger person you are. Some people do have a great sense of finance, they know how to play and make money in the market. They know how to do illegal things legally.

They may be good in finance and can flaunt their money, but at the same time, not necessary; they would be good at economics. Hoarding of finance by ignoring economics can give you temporary flaunt and pleasure, but in the long run, you pay the price of ignoring the economics.

How finance and economics differs?

The economics provides the rules, regulations, policies, vision. It checks the fraudulent flow of the money. Economics does not work for the individuals. It focuses on holistic progress. It is designed to provide the financial stability to the nation as a whole. A nation can be financially strong, but economically weak. Finance can be set at an organizational or individual level. It cares only for the self. The economics cares for everyone.

It provides the models to support the weaker section of the nation and eliminate the domination of the giant one to ensure the stream of money flow towards everyone. The finance oriented people can smartly bend the economics and make huge money in the market. These kinds of greedy people drive the market fraudulently, which causes the fiscal deficit of the nation.

Finance minded people may be smart, but not as wise as economists, who think about the stability. The people, who ignore the economics and focus on the finance, most probably, they do not enjoy their money. Those people - either get apprehended for breaching the regulation and incarcerated or spent their whole life in stress in hiding their unethical collection of finance. That hoarding of money is the worst money who gives you stress more than joy and happiness. Money exists to support us, not we exist to support money.

The major depression and crash in the financial market are the result of snubbing the economics and focusing on the finance to cope up with the competitors. The crash of 29 Oct 1929, the biggest market crash in the history, is also known as “Black Tuesday”, was the consequence of the disregard of the economics. And the effect of that crash lasts for 10 years.

The market crash of 2008, the second highest market crash, was also the product of overlooking the economics. Lehman Brother, an investment giant, could not save himself from its scupper. Now that giant, out of anyone`s imagination, is the history of yesterday. Harshad Mehta from India, in 1992, was caught is share scam and died in jail without enjoying his own money.

Anything illegally pertaining to the finance is the ignorance of the economics. Doing so, we are directly becoming the part of the financial crisis and inflation of the nation. The financial strength of any nation depends on its economic model and its sincere implementation. The rise and fall of the currency of any country depend on the per capita income and white flow of the money in the market, not by the net income of the few people or the black money.

The money can be hoarded fraudulently, but not necessary, you or your family would enjoy those. There may be animosity in your coming generations for the sake of that money. There is invariably a wrong result in the wrong and unethical deeds. A nation can live in peace and harmony where the economics are respected by every individual.

Generally, two kinds of persons fall sick and embarrass the death untimely - one who does not have anything to eat, and the second, who overeats. To save everyone, let everyone eat his share and burp in satisfaction.

Even Bhishma`s long life could not save the Kuru dynasty

Bhishma was blessed of choosing the moment of his death. He could live on the earth as long as he desired. He had got the knowledge of political science and other subjects from Brihaspati, the guru of the gods (Devas), and Sukracharya, the guru of demons(Asuras). He learnt Vedas and other scriptures from the sage Vasishtha. Sage Markandeya was his spiritual guru.

On the persuasion of his mother goddess Ganga, Parashuram taught him martial arts, military science and the skills of other weapons. There was no answer of the prowess of his archery at that time.  

Parashuram alone had defeated all the Kshatriya on the earth for 21 times. In order to safeguard his promise and principles, Bhishma had to fight against his Guru, Parashuram. Bhishma was that one Kshatriya on the earth who got the privilege of defeating the invincible Parashuram.

He had unparalleled power, vigour and valiance. In all the aspects, he was exceptionally amazing. He always wanted to see Hastinapur and Kuru dynasty flourishing.  

All the experience, knowledge, skill, prowess and long life of Bhishma could not stop the war between cousin brothers Kauravas and Pandavas. He could not change the destiny of Hastinapur.

In order to make Hastinapur a better kingdom, he kept postponing his death, but failed miserably in protecting the Kuru dynasty from the destruction. His desire of making the Kuru dynasty an ideal kingdom was not fulfilled. In the front of his eyes, the Kuru dynasty drown in the deep mire of dilapidation.

He considered himself a great by keeping the vow of celibacy and not becoming the king of Hastinapur. In the absence of a worthy king, the kingdom went in the hand of those people who were filled with lust, greed, domination and selfishness. A dominating and debauchery king cannot make his kingdom flourishing.  

If Bhisma would have become a king, there would be a different destiny of Hastinapur. But he ended with working under Kauravas, who had chosen an unrighteous  path. He kept advising the Kauravas for the right and wrong for the kingdom, but his advice was not listened and valued.

No matter how talented and skilled you are, if you are not holding the position what you deserve, you would not be valued and respected. You would be underestimated, humiliated, scoffed and shown low by the people who are in power.

The non-eligible people come into power and rule when the eligible people deny to come into power due to certain conditions like Bhisma. They have skill, knowledge, talent, understanding and care for the nation, but could not do anything, because they are compelled to work on the dictation of less qualified people than them.

We can bequeath our earned property and wealth to the coming generation, but  not our wisdom and knowledge. It is acquired by the self-effort. The same happened with Bhisma.

As we grow older, we keep thinking of the coming generation and their well-being. We think that this world would stop working without us. In that anxiety, we do not want to sacrifice our mortal body even at the right time. Without enquiring whether this world and generation need us or not, we want to have the blessings of a long life.

 After a certain age, even nature does not want you to exist on the earth and then we do not support our generation, rather, mostly we create problems for them by imposing our decision and desire on them, which may not be appropriate in the current scenarios. 

The experience can be shared with the next generation, but its implementation cannot be guaranteed. Any long life or skill or knowledge cannot change the future of the coming generation, if they are reluctant to listen to you. In the contrast, if your generation is well mannered and educated, they can create their own fortune, for them, you need not to live long to guide what to do and what not.

Even Bhisma`s long life could not save the Kuru dynasty, what to talk about other mortals.
