<center><h2>Greetings Steemans, here again with the fortieth law PART 1, I hope you like it</h2></center>

__Author of the book:__ "Robert Greene and Joost Elffers"

**Warning:** This type of book talks about how people can impose power over others, but the goal of learning is to have the point of view of the two sides of the coin, one can use it to your advantage or another that you do not allow others to use it with you, for that reason I only tell you the summary of each law which will help me and you, and it is up to you to act on that since I do not agree on all the concepts raised and I think that you too will not be.

We will talk about the fortieth law part 1, since I divided it into 3 parts because the information will be clearer, since reading the title alone caused me some grace, since one of my relatives, and sometimes we without realizing it, commit the transgression of this law.

<center><h2>LESS THANK WHAT IS FREE  </h2></center>


> __<center>CRITERION</center>__
Everything that is free is dangerous, since it usually involves some trick or a hidden commitment. The things that have value are worth paying for. In this way, you will not be bound to any gratitude, you will be free from guilt and will avoid frauds and deceptions. The smartest thing is, often, to pay the total price. When we talk about excellence there are no bargains. Be generous with your money and circulate it, since generosity is a sign and magnet of power.



__<center>MONEY AND POWER</center>__
Everything that encompasses power, everything must be judged by its cost, since everything has a price. Often what is free or what seems to be a bargain always involves a psychological price, either because of the complex feelings of obligation , by speculations about the price and the insecurities that it produces.
When someone learns to protect their most essential resources: non-dependence and the space to act freely, by paying the price that is in fact, is getting rid of tricks and worries.

 Many of the powerful adopt with respect to money a form of "strategic generosity," since it attenuates people and makes them more vulnerable to cheating, also winning supporters and pleasures that will create in people, anger thus rising to the top. of power, you must learn with what kind of people you are dealing with especially those who are not able to play generously and strategically with the money, you can move away or benefit from these individuals.

According to Robert Green there are 4 types of people subject to their self destructive denial of using money creatively

__THE CODICIOSO FISH:__ That individual who puts everything above all his exaggerated ambition to own everything, seeing people as an obstacle or as pawns for obtaining wealth, due to his excessive ambition, distances people who could be very helpful as allies, or people who in the long term would change the world, but need these greedy people, which are only fixed in the short term or advantage-disadvantage, in synthesis they are only fixed in figures of money even if your planet is dying .
This type of people are very docile to defraud the right people, since they can appeal to their ambition and put the bait of money easy since they are always looking for money, which will cloud their eyes their emotions of the true core that is getting entangled .

__THE DEMON OF THE BARGAINING:__ These types of people have seen them a lot for my country, they do it and they will continue doing it because of their lack of information about finances, these people are characterized by searching and searching for types of things to which they adapt to their They do not realize that by trying to do that, they often achieve it and if they succeed they have lost much more than they have earned, their time and their dignity, maybe in the long run something more since the product that I bought has not satisfied with the guarantee that I had thought, therefore limit yourself to making a brief mental calculation, adding the cost, at least in time and inner peace of the irrational search for a bargain.


__THE SADDOM:__ This individual is known for making "cunning" power games with money in order to reaffirm his power, making his life impossible at work, as he will think that by paying someone he will have the right to trample him or treat him as he desire. Therefore, confine yourself to becoming entangled in such destructive games of power.

__THE DADIVOSO THAT DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE:__ The generosity fulfills the very intrinsic function in the field of power but if it is used with a defined objective, since this type of people is benevolent because it wants to be recognized by the people whom it helps and hardly It achieves that desired goal, since the people to whom it is giving feel that they are not special since all kinds of people give the same.



__EACHEMPLE OF THE CODICIDE FISH__

> <center>TRANSGRESSION OF THE LAW</center>
We have all heard or read at school about the pre-Columbian history or the colonization of the Spaniards in my case if, well in the transgression of the law, we are talking about Francisco Pizarro and Gonzalo Pizarro who commanded an expedition in search of an empire " El dorado ", all began with the enthusiasm of the Spaniards who began to create stories about such an empire and such a person who enjoyed the abundant gold, for that reason this expedition was heading towards the east of Peru.
Gonzalo went east, with 340 Spaniards, with more than 4000 natives who carry the provisions and at the same time making guides, 4000 pigs, dozens of llamas and about 1000 dogs.
Each time they were advanced nature stopped them with their torrential rains, while they continued on their way to the empire they came across Indians who were asking about the whereabouts of "El Dorado", some knew little else, Gonzalo obfuscated them towards meat. the dogs, and when the rumor spread that Gonzalo went to the people who did not help the expedition, they soon understood that he had to invent stories, thus fueling Gonzalo's ambition, each time the spirits of the explorers were falling as they went deeper into and more to the wild jungle, many people died, the supplies have run out, it was difficult to continue in these conditions, each time the men were forgetting the idea of ​​"El Dorado" until one day they managed to find their way back until arriving in Quito after a long year and a half and behind that expedition a large amount of money invested without having returned anything and without traces of the "THE GOLDEN ".

__<center>INTERPRETATION</center>__
The illusion of arriving with "El Dorado" was a disastrous final for Spain as they continued with the desire to search that sent expedition after expedition without paying anything, thus costing human and economic lives leading to the ruin of Spain, which became a obsession on the part of Spain since the gold that arrived at the country was destined to invest in the expeditions and the profit of the crown and not in economy of the country, thus they themselves digging their own grave to the failure
Power demands self-discipline, especially that which is not earned with effort or that which is taken immediately, since it ravages your emotions, and you will always have the idea that money will always come that way, and prey to said desire, this type of individual the ambitious neglects what really depends on power as self-control and goodwill, no change of fortune is elaborated overnight, the momentary wealth is not hard, since it is not support on solid pillars, and do not neglect such pillars of effort dedication and intelligence of true power because if you do the money will come in addition.

"Leave the Golden for the unwary and foolish"
