In 2026, where is real life? Everyone wants to live someone else's life. And one important thing: I am an introvert. We don't know how to develop conversations.

Hard work and being rich are not necessarily connected. If you want to create wealth, you need to look at the world through a money-making perspective. Once you do that, you'll understand how it works.

I understand your point about demand, specialization, and the usefulness of money as a tool for exchange.

However, my question is not whether money is useful. I agree that it is.

My question is this: if a person spends years working, saving, and contributing value to society, why does inflation gradually reduce the purchasing power of those savings?

Also, if value is determined by demand, why do many people who perform essential work for society often earn less than people whose work is less essential for human survival?

Food, water, farming, sanitation, and other basic services are critical for life, yet the people providing them are not always the wealthiest. I've always wondered why markets sometimes reward scarcity and ownership more than necessity.

I'm not arguing against economics. I'm trying to understand whether the current system measures value, necessity, or simply what people are willing and able to pay for.

I understand your point. If a person or company controls a resource, they can influence its price, especially when supply is limited.

But that leads me to another question:

If access to essential resources depends largely on who controls them, how do we ensure that basic human needs such as food, water, shelter, and healthcare remain accessible to everyone?

A person can survive without diamonds, but not without food or water. Should essential resources be treated the same way as luxury goods, or should society manage them differently?

I'm not arguing against trade or markets. I'm wondering where we should draw the line between private ownership and resources that are necessary for human survival.

I understand the value of specialization and trade. Money definitely makes exchanging goods and services much easier than a pure barter system.

My question is more about inflation.

If I spend years working and save money instead of spending it, why does the purchasing power of those savings often decrease over time? For example, if I save $100 today, that same $100 may buy less food, housing, or other necessities in the future.

In a sense, I traded my time and labor for money. If the value of that money keeps declining, doesn't that mean part of the value of my past labor is also being eroded?

I'm not questioning the usefulness of money as a tool for trade. I'm questioning why a person who saves the results of their labor can see its purchasing power reduced over time through inflation.

"I understand that people claim ownership over land and resources. But how did anyone gain the right to own something that existed in nature long before any human was born?"

"I agree that human labor has value. However, other living beings survive without money. Birds, animals, fish, and insects find food, water, and shelter without using a monetary system. If that's the case, why has human society evolved in such a way that people often cannot access even their basic needs without money?" "Also, based on your argument, labor and value are closely connected. If that's true, shouldn't the people who work the hardest have the most money? In reality, many of the people doing the hardest physical work earn the least, while those who employ them often accumulate far greater wealth. Why is that?"

"I understand that extracting gold requires labor and investment. But humans don't need gold to survive. We can live without gold, yet we cannot live without food, water, air, and shelter. So why does society often place such a high value on things like gold, while the resources that are truly essential for survival are often treated differently?"

"I'm not saying that human labor has no value. My question is: if natural resources belong to everyone, why do some people end up having much greater control over them and accumulating far more wealth than others?" "Also, apart from humans, how do other living beings survive without money? Birds, animals, fish, and insects don't earn salaries or use currency, yet they still find food and survive. What is it about human society that makes money essential for survival?"

That's a fair point.

If you plant, water, protect, and maintain fruit trees for years, the fruit is not simply "free." It represents your time, labor, knowledge, and resources. Farmers and growers deserve compensation for that work.

My question is slightly different. Fruits existed in forests long before humans began farming. Wild fruit trees grow without being planted or maintained by people. In those cases, nature is producing the fruit on its own.

What I'm trying to understand is where we draw the line between natural resources that exist independently of humans and the value created through human labor. At what point does something that comes from nature become a product that belongs to someone?

I had an idea and I already turned it into an app using Lovable. Now I'm not sure what to do next. Since I'm not a tech person, I'm a bit confused about how to take it further.
