The Judgement Of Money (An Interesting Experiment)

The other day on August 8th I did an intro class called "The 3 Dangerous Words That Destroy Your Money Flows" Intro Class. One of the tools I taught in that class was receiving judgment and how every time you receive it you will make $5,000 that year. Cool huh?

Well BEFORE that class I chose to run a little experiment. An experiment in money. An experiment in judgment. You know, the curious lil humanoid that I be I always be asking "What else is possible?" in recent years and poke at things I am curious about unless its a hornets nest.
So what I did was intentionality for 3 days straight I did not shower. Yeah I know, stinky stinky.
I also did not put deodorant or perfume on. I put on the holiest, dirtiest, oldest, falling apart clothes I could find in my house and went out into the world that way. I did not brush my hair or anything. I basically went out and appeared in the world with everything I knew I would be judged for. Based on the POV of this reality I looked like shit. YAY!
I went to a few stores and DID have at least $50 in my pocket. I walked around and looked at things.

Here is what showed up:

  • People laughed at me.
  • People stared
  • People avoided me
  • People said things about me under their breath even though unknown to them I could clearly hear what they said with my acute hearing.
  • Being the little gifted Autistic psychic I be I could hear in my head what they were thinking of me without them saying anything to me.
  • The police were called. The store thought I was shoplifting because they judged and concluded I had no money based on how I appeared and smelled, and therefore by not having money from their point of view, I must therefore be doing something illegal.
In regards to the police they showed up right when I was in the checkout lane line and pulled the $50 cash out and showed them I did have money on me and I was actually going to buy one item from the store. A $1.39 pack of gum. The store owner saw the $50 I had and asked me accusingly "Where did you steal that from?" Apparently $50 is more money than "someone like me" should have from his point of view.The cops let me go as I did buy something and I had nothing on me that was new or stolen from the store.

Now some of the things thrown at me were observations, not judgments. For example the fact I smelled horrible and was wearing falling apart clothing. Yes, I was. That is an observation. The idea that because of that appearance was proof that I must be doing something "wrong" and must not have money and must be stealing from the store however is judgment.

After this I drove home with my $4,500 valued dirty older Mustang with bird shit all over it (that I intentionally did not wash for this experiment) whilst chewing a piece of my fresh new pack of $1.39 gum and took note of how I was treated. I got home, thew off the clothes, took a shower, put deodorant and perfume on, did my hair, put on the best clothes I have and went and put on the nicest jewelry I have. Or at least mock jewelry that LOOKED like it was real gold, silver, diamonds, and whatnot. This time I added another $50 to the $48.61 I had left in cash. A friend of mine who knew I was doing this experiment (and does have way more money than me) came by with her $35,000 value brand new Mustang she let me borrow for a few hours that day, and left for the store again with $98.61 cash. True, not thousands of dollars but it was enough of a wad of cash for me to flash around at people to make it look like I have shitloads of money. And while not a Mercedes or BMW, I was driving a bit more expensive car. I also have a American Express prepaid debit card that is designed to look like a real AmEx credit card. So I looked like I have "walk on water" credit that everyone so values here in this reality and had shitloads of money. I went back out into town.

This time I went back to the same store, but this time I went and bought one pound of the high quality meat and cheeses ($22.37) from the deli department, a bottle of the most expensive ass wine they had ($47.95),  and I walked around like I owned the place and projected out into the store the idea and the energy that I have $45,000,000 in my checking account right now and $15,000 in cash on me. This is what showed up this time....

  • Some of the employees were more than willing to help me, while others helped me but I could hear in their heads and from the energy they projected at me: "This stuck up rude bitch makes more money in a day than I do all year working my ass off here!" (it did not matter that I was being polite and kind to everyone, I was "the stuck up bitch" solely because I have money apparently).
  • Men hit on me. 
  • Women hit on me.
  • A mother of 8 kids in the frozen food isle said something along the lines of "I may not have the money to buy you those frozen chicken nuggets you wanted but at least we are happy unlike that lady over there sweetie." 
  • One of said children who had not yet bought her mothers points of view yet noticed I was smiling and was actually happy and gave her mom a confused strange look when she said that.
  • No police officers were called. The owner of the store (who earlier accused me of stealing) came over to me and repeatedly asked if I needed any help. It seems he did not recognize me.
  • I was not being watched like a criminal and perused the store for over an hour.
  • When I went to buy the deli food and wine I made sure I put the items on the conveyer belt in a way that the people behind me could see the labels and could see I was buying that expensive ass wine that only a person with shitloads of money buys in that store. I pulled out my faux-like American Express card and flashed it in a way that the people behind me in the line could clearly see it was an AmEx card (which most people assume has thousands of dollars on it). I then went "Oh you know what I have plenty of cash on me ill just pay for this with cash." I made sure I emphasized the "I have plenty of cash" part which I could perceive the sheer furry of the people in line behind me. I paid for the stuff with cash with the total of $70.32 and when I did I made sure I held and put back the $28 cash that was left (that I actually had at the time) in a way so it looked like it was $1,000's leftover even though it was not. 
  • I ended off the trip by requesting for assistance with my groceries to my car. That really set off the judgments from the people behind me as I only had 3 items (cheese, roast beef, and that darn bottle of wine they themselves refuse to buy because of the pricetag). I left the store with the employee carrying my items and he put them in the trunk of the $35,000 sparkling clean brand new Mustang, and ..... got hit in again by him.

The result: I drove back home, gave my friend her car back, she bought the bottle of wine off me for what I paid for it (its too dry for my bodies personal taste), let me keep the meat and cheese but refunded me the money I spent on them, and I was left with a new lesson learned that day.

When I was out the first time all filthy and unshowered I was judged for NOT HAVING MONEY. Even though I did have $50 cash on me, it was concluded by others that I had nothing based on solely how I appeared and smelled. I was then judged for having $50 because that was more money that someone in my physical condition should have. It was a non-reality for the store owner. People avoided me solely because they thought I did NOT have money, and therefore, something must be "wrong with me."

The second time I went there showered, clean, smelling, looking, and walking about like a million bucks I was judged FOR HAVING MONEY.
Employees assumed I must be rude and stuck up because they thought I had shitloads of money.
Others wanted a date because they wanted the money they thought I had. Others assumed I was unhappy because they had been taught that happiness only comes from not having money. Others judged me for using the FREE grocery assistance service that the store has where an employee walks you out to your car and helps you with your groceries. Now mind you normally I would not ask for help with only 3 little items. A 50 lb thing of cat litter that had to be hauled into my car, yes. I did ask for the assistance this time for the 3 items in this experiment just to see how much judgment I could bring up in peoples worlds. And I did, all of them. I experienced both ends of the spectrum on this day. Interestingly, no one judged me "correctly." Meaning no one actually got it that day for actually having $100 in the current 10 seconds of my life that day. The amount of money I did or did not have was formulated based on how I appeared. Since no one looked close at anything and everyone functioned from conclusion based on past experience, they created a reality based on the illusion I was giving them in this experiment, thus I was able to pull off the appearance of having shitloads of money. I gave people exactly what they were looking for. They let their judgments and conclusions take flight and let it go from there to the point no one actually questioned anything. Nor did anyone recognize me from the first time I was in there.

Are you avoiding having money to avoid the judgments? Are you avoiding not having money to avoid the judgments? From what I experienced in this it doesn't matter what you do, what you have, what you don't have, you are gonna get judged anyway. And that's a good thing. Why?

Because each and every time someone judges you and you don't align or agree with it or resist and react to it you make $5,000 more that year. Each time you align and agree or resist or react to a judgement you lose $10,000 per year. Ever wondered why celebrities or people we claim we "hate" seem to make more and more money and become more and more powerful? That's why. This world we live in teaches us to resist and react or align and agree. What do your finances look like?

Like I suggested to those who chose the Three Dangerous Words Money Intro Class, be a rock in the stream when others judge you. When you are being judged that is the moment you are being the space of who you truly be. If you are willing do an experiment like this yourself and practice receiving others judgments. Its not like anyone's judgements are real anyway, let loose and live. You don't have to take it to the extreme I did like not showering for 3 days unless you would like to. Just go out in the world wearing something you know you will be judged for. Wear a pink tutu, have fun with it. Don't do that though, you might make more money this year and you are not allowed to have more money. Not allowed. I won't let you.

What would it take to just live your life and have fun?  
Money follows joy, are you having any yet?
