That's why you shouldn't only reward people with money.
People need to know there are other rewards for hard work.
Such as getting to be around other hard working people.
Who are generally well put together and valuable people.
You can't raise a child just on money. It can certainly be useful but it has an end as a teaching tool.
Hard work is only valuable either because you genuinely love what you do, or if you get payed for it
Working hard wont automatically put you with hardwarking people
Absolutely not. Hard work is valuable because it can make the world a better place in so many ways.
Its more likely to be somewhere where youre just carrying a bunch of slobs
You don't choose to be gay
I mean on a personal level
That was just an example, obviously there are no guarantees.
The fact it helps society is why you get paid
But you don't do it to help society, you do it to get paid
There are people out there who neither get paid enough nor enjoy what they do, but do it anyway.
Even when they don't really have to.
I find it very strange that you think money is the only way to get people to do things.
I didn't say "enjoy", I said love. If they do it despite not getting paid, than they do it because they love thier work
You've got to be kidding.
That's what I meant
Originally
Anyway, if you don't think there is any way to teach hard work than with money, I don't know what to tell you.
IMO there's plenty more to it than that.
I don't know why you think there needs to be another reward
I already said, money isn't the only thing people want.
You give somthing to society, and you get something back in return (money)
That hiw it works
That hiw it should work
and that's just one aspect of life
and there's the whole rest of being a person and having wants and needs
the money is the most important factor. its absence poses the entire problem
Again, the other reason you might put effort into something is because you find satisfaction in it (again, doesn't mean you necessarily enjoy it)
As you pointed out Baraban, money just represents value, so all you need to be able to offer is anything that someone values.
Which could even just be jokes.
the insult makes it harder to find the satisfaction
Some people work hard just to hear some jokes and have some laughs.
nobody is going to work for the jokes
I guess you could ask for something else other than money, but l don't know why you would
probably not for too long, no, but it's an example
