The "Finance" Matrix

In 1999, Warner Brothers released The Matrix, a movie which would go on to become a cult phenomenon, a cinematic sensation that has been continually referenced and discussed since the time of its release. Despite this, many of the people who are fans of this series are unaware of why the movie became so popular, and the many messages that the directors and actors worked to send us.

For those of you who are not familiar with the movie series, the Matrix basically involves mankind's struggle against sentient machines, which have the vast majority of mankind locked in a simulated dream world which is called The Matrix. A few humans are free from the matrix and the control of the machines, and live in what is called "the real world." These free humans constantly battle the machines and their programs in an attempt to free the remainder of humanity from their grasp.

The present financial system which exists in our society today is a lot like the matrix showcased in the film series. Human beings live in a world where they've been presented with a financial reality, a reality which doesn't truly exist. They've been manipulating into seeing things which aren't truly there, a world that doesn't really exist. For example, starting in the early 2000s, the U.S. mortgage industry created a dream world in which Americans believed that they could take out loans on houses they couldn't afford, at unrealistically low interest rates, in the anticipation that they would live in prosperity, gain the American dream, and eventually pay off their debts.

By 2007, it became obvious to everyone that this was a dream, and the reality was much more unpleasant. With this awakening came the current recession, which will in all likelihood end in a depression. The financial industry are masters of deception, and can be likened to the machines of the Matrix: they trap their victims in a dream world that isn't really there, sucking the lifeblood and financial energy out of them while they lie helpless, to blind to see what is being done to them.

By writing Finance Wars, a powerful e-book which shatters our perceptions of what finance and money means, I'm working to rescue my fellow humans from their slave state, while benefiting myself at the same time.

Today the world was changed under financial pressure during several years but unfortunately the nature of humans does not changed and what we see? as soon banks starting give money at lower rates than it was in 2008-2009 years people start make new debts. All want live own lives in prosperity but nobody wants to work for this result.
