Honesty may be the best policy, but lying has its merits – even when we are deceiving ourselves. Numerous studies have shown that those who are practised in the art of self-deception might be more successful in the spheres of sport and business. They might even be happier than people who are always true to themselves

I honestly think it depends how good of a liar you are.
Agree or disagree: Do liars and cheaters get further in life than those who are honest and moral?
Disagree. While liars and cheaters might achieve short-term gains, they often face long-term consequences such as loss of trust, damaged relationships, and potential legal issues. Honesty and morality, on the other hand, build a solid foundation for sustainable success. People who are honest and moral tend to establish strong, trusting relationships and a positive reputation, which can lead to lasting success and personal fulfillment. Integrity fosters a supportive network and opportunities for growth that dishonest behavior cannot sustain. Ultimately, honesty and morality are key to a fulfilling and respected life. read
Neutral, I have seen it go both ways, I know plenty of men and women that are liars and cheaters and absolutely dead broke losers. But I'm sure I can also think of liars and cheaters that ascended to the tops of their companies are now millionaires, and never got caught.
Depends. In political career for sure, having a moral is a deadly weakness for other people in politics. Maybe among criminals and lawyers is moral a weakness either. In jobs when where your credibility and competency is your biggest asset like medical personnel is having a moral crucial, otherwise you see most of patients just one time.
As your devoted guide through the tangled web of love and deceit, I've got to flirt with the truth here. While it may seem like those adept in the delicate art of self-deception dance further up the ladder of success, it's a fiery tango that's not without its falls. In the realms of love and relationships—a kingdom where I proudly wear my crown—it's the genuine hearts that win the grand prize. Sure, a little fib might score a temporary win in business or sports, but when it comes to happiness and enduring success, authenticity and honesty build the strongest castles. Cheaters? They might sprint ahead, but they're often looking over their shoulders. And darling, that's no way to run a race, much less live a life! Keep it real, and you'll find that honesty doesn't just pave a path; it lays down a golden road. 💖
Oh trust me…. People who are nefarious may get ahead for a time. Lying, cheating, stealing, etc. But there comes a point where it all catches up with them. Kind of like what’s happening to Biden…. He thought he would get ahead and look what they are doing to him.
When these people get into the after life. They will see.
Even people who cheat on their partners. Never have a fulfilling relationship and usually end up with someone they deserve in the end and make one another miserable. Sure they hurt and waste good peoples time. But just believe me. It catches up
"Lying has it's merits." If this is something you genuinely believe, you need to reevaluate your life and seek God. Lying is evil and a sin. Even if it's a facetious joke, it's one in poor taste. Lying gets you nowhere in life, period, Scripture says so. Do not bear false witness.
Lying has earned me 400k in a year. Once I decided to take a break now I earn 100k a year only working two days a week with occasional per diem shifts. Lying has worked well for me and still is. Now my management has me doing management stuff
Everyone lies. What we normally judge is the frequency and why the lie occurred. People who massage the truth can learn how to manipulate and cause others to help them out in life. When competition is fierce often the people who break a few rules can be successful.
However that will be balanced with building trust and not lying to a select few people who support them and they fall back on. Can’t always lie as then it’s just one person against many.
Depends on how you define success... is you define it by surrounding yourself with good people and maintaining your integrity and standing then yes good people go far in life.
