"Imagine you had all the money in the world... What would you do with it ?"

Basically this is a children-ish tease on kids imaginations, one that subliminally teaches kids the ways if greed and materialistic ways of projecting their future lives. 
It's so contradictory. They tell us to dream big, fight for the world and live your life doing what you love most. Hah then comes the hard reality that hits you right across the face with a brick. Fuck you basically. 
I'm not sure whether its right to teach kids these ideals and belief systems. "If you work hard you'll get your dream". But then their lives they live have been centred around taking the easiest path, making short cuts and finding the easy way out. Never to work hard and more that what's required. Please if anything, the kids who live in third-world countries (hah what a joke, humanity has come to a point where one planet, one world has such a massive discrepancy between their quality of lifes that they must categorise and split nations that are 'worlds' behinds based on corrupt, biased and egocentric ideologies) have better lives than us cause they live fulfilled . They don't see what's further or what they could become. They are content with what they have and appreciate to the fullest with what is available. 
It's a funny world out there and basically I just wouldn't know how to teach my kids...which is why I'm conflicted about the prospect of ever having kids. I'd just be a shit father judging on the mindset rn.
