More Than Money - What Is "The Good Life" Parable

yeah the global warming will kill all these fishes so that man got no fishes to catch and he will die in pain instead of having money and giving his kids an easy life.

Wow this was pretty unexpected and soo heart-warming for some reason ^_^

Has no sense all this.

Before this age, ALL PEOPLE lived a simple life!

But they had needs, that without money couldn't satisfy!

for this, appeared ''business schools'', and MBA , and schools of exellence etc.

to make people more competitive in their work, to avoid errors, and to make them MORE RICH.

so... why people have to return back in a ''simple life'', when they paid thousands of dollars to form themselves in ''make money'' courses?

lol

Lol. then why the author and all CEO don't give up and go fish or making a ''simple life''?

The question is:
How do the video continue?
at the start, the mba said that he was in the fishing village for ''some days''. then?

The author returned in his city, and became a stressed ceo of a multinational company with an all-time ringing phone, a beautiful secretary/lover and living his life at 100% with a mountain of money.

you forgot Ghandi.

If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day.
If you teach him how to fish, you feed him for ...
But what we want to do is change the fishing industry :)

Kudos for first, sharing how the blind pursuit of wealth is an empty prospect. Now please, connect the dots to resource depletion and the externalities ignored by virtually every MBA program in the world, and take responsibility for preserving the option for future fisherman to even exist.

There remains now only the shell of a fishing "industry" precisely because what they teach you in school is flawed to the core: complete ignorance of the importance of scale. And that is the lie untold here.

Without making that connection Mark, all you do is direct that flow of intellect and passion toward whatever the new MBA decides is his own little corner of paradise to distort and basically, destroy. And along with it goes the ability for true craftsman like this gentleman, to carry forward tradition.

If we aren't giving back more than we take, nothing can be sustained, and if it isn't sustainable, it's suicidal - for our souls, or our planet and all - including us, that are reliant upon it.

i dont think this is a recruitment video for fishermen.

Not at all. I could never be the/a fisherman :) But I can use the film to reflect on what is important to me and others in our lives, and to not get caught up in someone else's idea of what makes for a successful, a good, life.
