Money Matters

[shinharu10282016]

Isn't it interesting that those who pontificate that "Money is not everything" usually have money?

Be broke for a few weeks unable to pay your bills, pay rent and afford basic necessities, and then let's see if you'd still hold the same position about money.

Let us be sincere and stop fooling around; MONEY IS SOMETHING! A very huge something!! At least in this present world. Might not be a big deal in another world. But in this world? Save me the sermon.

Without money in this world, rarely does anything get done. In fact, many things suffer needlessly without money. Even the Bible is flat-out frank enough to recognize the fact that money answers all things in the context of this present world. It doesn't say money is "the answer to all things" but it answers all things.

So please, before you sermonize me that money is not everything or that money is no big deal, credit my blockchain address with one thousand units of Bitcoin and forget about it. Then I'd believe you. In fact, I'd sing it along with you...money ain't nothing!

We all know how important money is. You use it for food and different expenses, so how do you really shut this people that say that > MONEY ISN'T EVERYTHING. GET OVER IT<. You answer with an argument, well when do you have no money? If they answered never, then you can tell them to shut it. It is as simple as that. They will never know our struggles. They won't because just like the church who has a lot of money to give to the poor to help them, they won't help them because THEY ARE NOT REQUIRED TO. And that is how the wealth of the world is inevitably shared wrong.

Yes, money is everything for me because I think rationally.
So when you talk about money, make sure that you have think twice all the risk together !

Money truly doesn't make you happy.  So many people are obssessed with material items and money it makes me sick.  A lot of people have serious mental health problems , ( the ones that own 50+ supercars, megayachts, etc, they could do so much more to help society flourish.

When a person is about to die they don't look back on their lives thinking about how much money they had, they think about their good memories and relationships they had.

You are right. Most people are living in denials on this money issue.

Money is everything for everyone to satisfy the desires of lust he wants. However, money cannot give satisfaction and happiness to someone, those who have a lot of money have not received happiness in their lives. I found a lot of people in my country and they didn't put their lives too much on money, they still had happiness without the money they had. Rich in heart, is someone I mean, if you find that person then you will understand what is meant by 'money is not everything' but if you live in an environment that has a prestige towards his lifestyle then you will deny that response.

Money can't buy happiness or love, as one will argue.

I can feel you, went on several bouts of financial problems myself. But it gives me valuable lesson. Money is very important aspect specially at the current state of the world we live now. It is how people are going to judge you in the society. Obviously, if you are have money, you have influence and power. On the contrary being poor, you will be frown upon by the community.

LOL. Don't have that big units of Bitcoin, Seriously though, it boils down as to how you manage your life just not your money, money is important so you have a choice, enrich yourselves while still alive or believed that you are going to be for all eternity.

A good discussion though. Yes money matters!!! I have come across worst situations and truly felt from within that money is everything. I would say parents love and siblings love is next / very least. Just money is enough to bring back everything. Your loved ones will keep you aside when you do not have money and will hug you when you have money. I am sure everyone here has the same experience. May be more than i experienced. Those who have such experience will know the meaning of money and will be generous to help others as well.

[trecore4]

I like it when you said that credit your account with thousand units of bitcoin. LOLZ.

Surely no one will do it and to be honest each and every person on the earth is striving to earn money and nothing else. They are here because they want some profits out of it. When it comes to the money everyone becomes very much selfish or more or less egoist about it. The secret keeping has become words first thing when people find out some way of making passive money. From that only one can see how things are coming down to the money.

[crocus]

Money is the power in this world and money can't destroy many lives, lots of peoples are greedy to have lots of money and they can do bad things just because of money, probably money is the root of evil in this world and sadly we need this to survive in this planet.

You can be rich but still be very unhappy with your life.  Look at how many famous and rich celebrities committed suicide: Robin Williams, Kurt Cobain, Anthony Bourdain, Chester Bennington, and many others.

Not everything what the money can solve but yes majority of things gets solved by it . Rest of the things can be resolved by other than money like emotions, trust , respect , discipline etc which money cannot buy it but are the values which one learns early in their life .

[Choyor]

The problem of money is very important for the survival of everyone where everyone can use it for their daily needs, but the problem is that when we have difficulty getting opportunities that can make money, maybe Bitcoin is one of the solutions.

Money is the ultimate. No money, there is no peace. Money can do anything to you. There were times spend time without even a dollar. Had to face many things, leave out relatives, were hated, were separated, lost image, name and reputations. But when money kept falling in my wallet, everything vanished. Those who parted away from me, came back knowing i am ok now. I then realized, money is real and everything else is fake.

Steve Jobs' last words;

“I  reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success.

However, aside from work, I have little joy. In the end, wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to.

At this moment, lying on the sick bed and recalling my whole life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in, have paled and become meaningless in the face of impending death.

In the darkness, I look at the green lights from the life supporting machines and hear the humming mechanical sounds, I can feel the breath of god of death drawing closer …

Now I know, when we have accumulated sufficient wealth to last our lifetime, we should pursue other matters that are unrelated to wealth …

Blah..Blah..Blah"

Bad news, it was just a hoax. But only them who acquired the most have the ability to say it!

Only the poor will understand this song.

"If I hadn't seen such riches
I could live with being poor"

Sit Down by James.

This is something that I have thought for a lot of time, money is without a doubt important no one should deny that, but at some point if you are lucky enough to get enough money to last you a lifetime then you need to look for something else to do, no one has ever thought on his death bed that he should have spent more time working, everyone thinks about spending more time with their family and with their friends and doing stuff that they like, so once that you have enough money you need to find something else to do.

It is actually high time we stopped deceiving ourselves. Most times you hear people saying money is nothing, I hate such statements. Without money, you are NOTHING.

I agree with your point and like your post, especially the part about saving the sermon. Any way you look at it, it is better to cry in a Cadillac than on a bus. On the other hand, money is not everything when you already have enough of it as you rightfully noted. When all your basic needs and necessities are satisfied (like shelter, food, water), you start to care about other things which are less tied to the possession of sufficient amount of money, things like hobbies, relationships, children, societal things, etc. So let me sum it up for you. Money is not everything but it is definitely a large part of it.

[aoluain]

I totally agree with the OP, money most certainly matters particularly as we get older.
Its a matter of extremes and balance. There are extremes of wealth in this world and
its balance which is almost impossible to achieve.

Without money we simply struggle in a world which is constantly growing more commercial.
Difficulties accessing education and health services can be impossible for those without
access to finances.

The extremes are evident and are constantly expanding as the rich get richer and the poor
get poorer. So yes money does matter to those who have it because they are hell bent
On making more and to those who have none and struggle to get some.

I agree.With money,everything is possible.You can have your dream house,dream car,and lots of luxurious things.That's why we should learn how to value even a small amount of money because we work hard for it just to have some money for our daily's survival.

Money are incredibly important in the modern world. Actually money define a life for everybody. By the way I like compare money with energy because such a comparison afford me to understand the sense of money much better. I know that money is an artificial thing which does not exist in the nature but anyway we live in the society and namely in the society money are incredible important because our current world is build in such the way that money are really important for living.
