Okechukwu Ofili: Books Change The World Especially Chequebooks [The Trent Voices]

Must read

They told us books can change the world. So we dug our heads inside the religious scriptures looking for a way to change the world, searched the pages of science and political text books looking for the wisdom to change the world. But what they should have told us was that those books may change the world, but the book… the book that really changes the world… is a chequebook.

Time and time again the checkbook has proven to be the decider.

Have a brilliant idea that can save the world? You likely need a checkbook to fund it. Have a church that could save the world? You definitely need a congregation to write those checks. In fact those are the only books where the autographs really matter.

So don’t listen to people when they tell you to HATE money and to just do what you LOVE and the money will come.
No don’t listen to them, the ones that told you money was evil and that evil can’t change the world… that what changes the world instead is a kind heart and strong vision. Bullshit!

What changes the world 97.897644% of the time (no research done) is money. The people who have the money have the greatest opportunity and chance to change the world. Never forget that!

So in your quest to do good, to organize rallies, to change and influence political decisions… don’t forget to focus on getting your money. Because while you are reading books that can change the world, others are writing and autographing checkbooks that will.
