I am sure that there are many caring
individuals out there that are wondering why 925 million people are
starving worldwide, and no I am not speaking of anorexics.
The underprivileged are starving simply
because they have no food, brilliant, we have figured that much out,
but one of the majority contributing factors to no food, may be no
money, brilliant.
The principal problem is that many
people in the world do not have sufficient land to grow, or income to
purchase, enough food.
Okay, we have come this far, are you
following me here, no money=no food (in most scenarios..... we can
get to the whole dictator, warlord, pirate, famine, neglect of
agriculture relevant to very poor people by governments/international
agencies, the current worldwide economic crisis <is that straw out
there breaking some camel's backs?> etc subject later)
Chances are many of you who are reading
this do not fall under those categories (except perhaps the crisis?),
lucky you, however you too can use the general “no money=no food”
principal in your everyday life to loose weight and have the body you
have always dreamed of.
*please consult physician or your stock
market before beginning any new diets
The idea is to have no money and then
you will have no food, pretty basic right ,but that does not sound
very appealing or else every one would be homeless beggars with
perfect bodies.
The idea is not so much to not have
money but investments instead, put more into that 401K, take out an
IRA, invest in a stock you think will earn you a profit, or just lay
away for that item you have always wanted or simply just go out and
buy it, stimulate the economy rather than satisfy your hypothalamus'
cravings. Put 90% of your earnings into investments in one form or
another, there are endless choices for a variety of profit returns,
and then just leave 10% for your fat ass.
Why invest more food/money into your
thighs then what you could get by on if you were starving, not dying
of malnutrition mind you, (No one really knows how many people are
malnourished. The statistic most frequently cited is that of the
United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, which measures
'undernutrition'. The FAO did not publish an estimate in its most
recent publication, 'The State of Food Insecurity in the World 2011'
as it is undertaking a major revision of how it estimates food
insecurity (FAO 2011 p. 10) just a bit hungry and wanting that
doughnut but by golly you're too low on “available cash funds” so
just think of your portfolio and smile instead.
See, if you put more than 10% * just a
sample estimated figure, into your stomach then you spend another 10%
on diet pills, then another 20% on fitness equipment you saw on some
cheesy infomercial while you ate a tub of ice cream.
Save your self the trouble and save for
your future instead and ironically you will never have to, perhaps,
worry about going w/o a meal ever again, a small portioned one at
least.
Better yet invest in a soup kitchen
project so some one who doesn't have any money can eat. Give them a
portion from your wallet instead to help you avoid overfilling your
plate.....(fast food and buffets are obviously not being referred to
here and should be avoided all together).
It's all about downsizing portions,
right, and portion control blah blah blah for get that crap. I am
talking about wallet control.
Damn, I really wanted that chocolate
mocha and muffin (1 million calories.) but all I can afford is tap
water and a banana (40 calories.) but my financial portfolio is
delicious and so am I in my skinny jeans and Jimmy Choos! …..now
your talking :)
As of 2008 (2005 statistics), the World
Bank has estimated that there were an estimated 1,345 million poor
people in developing countries who live on $1.25 a day or less (and
so can you!).....and I bet none of them are fat gluttonous _______s.
...and of course always maintaining
your exercise at least 3x a week, which is completely necessary,
hhhmmm, ride your bike to work?
Save the Planet, stop consuming......cut back?
