translated from Spanish: With regard to the useless heiress

to a friend of mine very dear, shout as maximum insult which is a “useless heiress”, something that looks like the man who long the epithet so serious and feels as owner of the truth, who did not even hesitate to put it in writing. To me left me thinking. Is like when they ask “do you what do you do?”, more wanting to find out where you get the silver to live as you live, to understand your interests, concerns and responsibilities, or when in a group of Chilean men becomes the account and no one attacks on it or It is paid by that which stood quietly to the bathroom, as generally happens in other places.
Is it bad to inherit? It is fair that you take on face that your ancestors did as well, which must not be busy in their livelihood, but you can raise, think travel, sponsor, or what is fancy, without walking by caritas walk or seeming to be “free” in free-market…
This for a Chilean might sound weird, but for an Anglo-Saxon, that trust, the famous trust or the word framed (confidence), is an institution that much care and, if you’re conservative, only compound interest helps the trustees have an income only with interest, without touching the capital, and that this is perpetuated in time, assuming that there is a global meltdown and that the deposits are a reasonably serious country.
We move on to the second part. As to be useless. I believe that there are different roles, and can be mother, thinker, Senator or Sweeper without complexes or disqualifications of those who have opted for a different path. What is, then, to be ‘useful’? I don’t have a clear answer. They say President Trump would make more money if I had done nothing with his inheritance and had left his administration to a third party, but I can not call it useless for having less than it could, even when it is not Holy of my devotion.
When I abstraigo and I see people often think of robots or bees more jacket type yellow in the loved those that make honey. If being useful is to go to work every morning, have a mortgage for 30 years, can not see the children, I believe that the concept is wrong. In addition, as I said the grandfather of my friend Anibal, ‘children, if they are to leave in the morning, leave to earn money, not to work”. I.e., if you give them useful, please no announcements that does not reach you to pay pensions, or keep what did decide to grow. It is clear that silver was the grandfather of my friend and tired he won, but did not refer to the development of a profession, hobby or the simple delight of the enjoyment of being alive, of awareness exist, but only to produce, and there I think we are the Middle caught from the century sees inte.
“Useless” I know several and they have always inspired me… If we play to be useful is to produce silver, a great example to treat this is Marx. What would have been good without his friend Engels, Karl, heir to a powerful industrial empire. Or would the main critic of capitalism, was sold because his friend did checks so he thought and wrote? I think to the contrary. In addition to the good old Engels loved to be co-author, and a good way to achieve this, in Chile, there are abundant examples, is doing a check. That describes Jorge Edwards in the “Inútil de la familia”, which Jean François Revel proposes in his book on knowledge Ditto, the essays of Michel de Montaigne, and well, keeping the proportions, are other examples of large useless, I.
Lately I’ve become one of my useless Favorites, because I could contribute and want from a place he had never come without doing anything, conscious act of contemplative, very different from doing nothing, which is laziness.
Chapter 48 of the Iching, or book of changes, also deserves a revised.
I think that, apropos of the useless heiress, everyone can draw several conclusions. Starting with kindergarten, clear that Freud is not an author I domino. Something else I’ve looked to Jung, but what I try to do is show that apparently we all want to go through the world in a way that does not make us feel irrelevant. And there are many needs. Also other so many obligations. It is thing take box and look… hurry people, all urgent, from euphoria to colds and headaches that are forgotten by other urgent thing, need some appear so much that you forget that perhaps what is important is to highlight, and the so-called happy life of a majority in comfortable monthly installments.
I mention this situation without effort to shame, but tried that we can concentrate on what really matters, without envy or feelings of superiority, like those that inspire to criticize my friend and treat it in vain, when the truth is that long ago and little figure.
For me that all were heirs, especially all, because a woman desperate for money, with children, affect me more than a guy who must go out to earn a living. But it does not hurt to experience a State of freedom and calm that is difficult to achieve when you’re surviving. Or loose all or move in the world, but what has touched us live, not always everyone can do what they want with money or without money, as in the song. All inherit something, and is not just silver or debts. There are family secrets, pains, sorrows, genes, and also laughter and unforgettable minutes since we were only the brightness in the eye of a pretty hot type and a woman who, with or without desire, was there for the melee. I am a staunch supporter of procreation with desire, but that is a topic for another column.
If we concentrate more on highlighting include, we should between all those involved in the process of lead opinion, working to improve the laws of the past and prepare our legal order to go having a better future. In matters of inheritance, for example, it is quite absurd that a father leaving their children, a responsible father, which complies with the legislation in force and has things on your behalf, pay inheritance taxes to die, and then on the death of the mother i.e. the same heritage, the same heirs, back pay. Equally absurd is that with all the accumulation of capital achieved with so much effort, we have trasquilado the Valdés law of cultural donations and there is no legislation that encourage philanthropy, something that every society which has seen advanced should be and that the State fails to make optimally, though not so much in the equation. Examples abound.
We fire this words emulating Marx, but thinking of Engels, and thanking them for their paychecks, as we enter the poscapitalismo, not understand yet what it is: “Trustees of the world, unite!”.
