Is money for survival or luxury?

[NdaMk]

Being rich doesn't necessarily has to be about having money. A knowledgeable person can trade his for money. And this money is basically for survival all other luxuries are mere necessities that you look into when you have extra of this money. People that consider excess luxurious life thinks its part of survival too

Real wealth is when you are healthy. If you are healthy, you can work to fills your daily needs and enjoy the results, whatever they may be.

Is that still rich if you have a lot of money but have to go to many doctors? Not.

And I agree that money is for survival. And it is normal if we want to enjoy what the world offers us because we can buy what we want. After all, we have money to buy that.

[Kavelj22]

It is not for survival nor for luxury. Money is an exchange tool to facilitate transactions between individuals who provide different goods and services.

According to the historical narrative, money did not carry all the importance that it has in the current financial system before the emergence of trade as an independent sector (trade is not a productive sector). Then it developed into money in itself as a commodity to be bought and sold, as we see today in the money markets.

In general, it is not possible for a person to eliminate himself from reality, so we cannot eliminate money as a means of survival, but it is originally not so, because a person will not die if he is able to achieve self-sufficiency from his basic needs.

Money is meant for survival while in surviving through, you have the benefits of luxury life inclusive, there's no how we can have money a d not survive the hardship in the economy and that's why there's no any luxury life without the role of money at play, i believe we all need money for survival and accomplishment of tasks ahead, projects and ambition, lay pursuit on our desired dreams and live a lively life which all requires the role of money to enjoy them, but money should be earned and worked for and not to acquire it forcefully in other for it to last long.

Money is the most crucial aspect of our life; without it, you will just be concerned with surviving. After you have survived and someone else has more money than you, you start to consider living a luxury life. Therefore, for the time being, both depend on money because they cannot happen without it. Money, in my opinion, is just necessary for survival because not all wealthy people prefer a life of luxury.

I'm 24 years old and my goal is certainly not to drive a Mercedes or wear designer clothes, I'm trying not to revolve myself around money. From my point of view,  being rich doesn't necessarily have to involve expensive cars, houses or clothes, but having the ability to live comfortably, earning enough to survive but also to enjoy a few luxuries every now and then, such as travelling once or twice a year and to have the ability to put money aside.

Is money for survival or luxury?


Money is for two things:
1. So that the people have the convenience of easier trade than bartering would allow;
2. So that the banks and the government can leach off the people more easily.

The first thing money is meant for is for survival because no one will have money and  consider luxurious things first.  Luxurious life style comes in when their is excessive money to waste but when their is no much money one plan how to survive with little money he has.

[Jiovanni]

Well, Money is firstly, for ease of trade.

Secondly, money aids survival.

Thirdly, money affords luxury. Although  that's you affording the luxury.

However, money is in different means, might be tangible or intangible  but have same effect. Could be in form of asset, return of goodwill, etc.

Those who have the money will try and get whatever they want and those who do not have will keep working for survive till they get and solve there own problem. What ever we feel like doing, we can do it since we have the money. The rich has no problem getting luxuries of there choice because they have what it take to get what they want and we should not be surprised because money is the answer to our problem.

Depends on your basic needs 

[Stable090]

Being desperate for money will push you to do illegal things and that’s what have been affecting youths in my country, most of them want to leave expensive life and they are not ready to do legal work to get the money, all what am after is to be able to provide daily necessities for myself am satisfied, some people will scam people just because they want to leave luxury life which is wrong we should be contented with what we are having.

[CryptocurencyKing]

If one can only afford the basic needs of food, shelter, clothing, education and moderate, such person is poor.

But for me, if you can afford your basic need, you are rich. Riches is not determine by how much you spend but how happy and fulfilled you are.

Saying that one living a moderate life style isn't rich won't be accurate. In fact, it's self satisfying to be able to provide your needs and satisfy most of your wants because, you obviously can't satisfy all of them. There would be always that something that you won't have and at times, not because you can't afford it but at what expense it might take you to get it.
Even as the world richest man. You can't have the liberty to own all you want. There is always going to be a limiting factor at some point which might be self imposed.

Being able to provide for yourself and family is ultimate and if your able to accommodate som excess in luxury, then its good but if not, your better off satisfying what your finance can give you. A stable life is all you need.

[Ebede]

From what I'm seeing now money is for survivor and also for luxury because without money someone can die without proper treatment when there is infection or a dangerous disease that is being affected to the body of woman so the only thing that I can make it to be healed properly is with money that will give you a proper medication sometimes it is not money because when death come it is inevitable and nobody predict the death of anyone

[Jennifer Walters]

Without money I would starve therefore its for survival

[rahmad2nd]

In my country most people believe that you are rich when you have money to provide your basic needs and also afford some luxuries. To be classified as rich, you must own a mansion or different houses, drive expensive cars, go on vacation abroad, afford expensive schools for your children, wear designers cloths and consume expensive dishes. If one can only afford the basic needs of food, shelter, clothing, education and moderate, such person is poor.

But for me, if you can afford your basic need, you are rich. Riches is not determine by how much you spend but how happy and fulfilled you are. The orientation that money is for luxury is the cause of the high rate of crime in my neighborhood. Most young chaps now want to ride a Mercedes, live in luxury estates or hotels and showcase his designers clothes and accessories. The virtue of contentment, moderation and patient is gradually becoming archaic and obsolete. But for me, money is for survival and if you can provide your basic needs, you are rich.   

Between money and lifestyle, money is not everything, but unfortunately everything seems to need money, money and luxury both have a strong correlation. money depends on the person who holds it, some are only able to meet their basic needs, some are very capable of buying the luxury one wants.

This can happen to anyone, you or me, and it's not limited to your country, everyone in the world needs money for everything according to their own standard of living. you can buy luxury according to the income you get and it will be very natural when someone has the ability to do so.

However, I have to agree with you, simplicity and patience are gradually becoming obsolete, moral values ​​and simplicity are getting eroded with the progress of civilization.

Money is for farming. It's for the banks to farm you, their farm animals, and make a profit. Banking benefits for average people are ways that the banks advertise, so that you keep using their system, so that you keep getting milked by them. Ever heard of inflation? Bank money usage tax.


The Story of the Fed is the Story of a Crime

But as he makes abundantly clear in his landmark book, The Creature From Jekyll Island, now in its fifth edition, the case against the Fed is overwhelming.

Creature, as Griffin explains, is four books in one: a crash-course in money and banking; a history of central banking in America; a discussion of the Fed itself and its role in American and world affairs; and finally, a detailed look at how the Fed and other central banks become "catalysts for war."

Without central banking, much of the carnage of the past 108 years would not have been possible.

In November 1910 seven men representing roughly one-fourth of the world's wealth took a clandestine train ride from New Jersey to a resort on Jekyll Island, Georgia, ostensibly to hunt ducks.  But instead of shooting birds they drew up plans for a state-privileged cartel, which served as the blueprint for the Federal Reserve Act of 1913.

For years, most people left the Jekyll Island tale for the fringe that loves conspiracy theories.  But gradually the story leaked out, beginning with an article by Bertie Charles Forbes, the future founder of Forbes Magazine, in Leslie's Weekly in 1916 (excerpted here).  Following discussions with Paul Warburg, the Fed's chief architect and one of the Jekyll attendees, Forbes confirmed the trip in his opening paragraphs.  Later writers, including some of those in attendance at Jekyll Island, corroborated Forbes' story.  The secret trip of 1910, long considered the delusions of conspiracy theorists, was openly celebrated in 2010 by Bernanke & company.

You can say rich. if you are satisfied with what you have. if you are satisfied with what you have achieved. if you can thank the favors that exist.

Poor people are those who are always dissatisfied. they find no satisfaction. although they live in the palace, surrounded by servants who are ready to be ordered. food and luxury goods abound. but their hearts always feel lacking and do not find satisfaction in their lives.
and the basic characteristic of poor people is that they are always envious of what others have achieved. they don't like seeing other people happy. because he really wants to be happy. but he couldn't get it even though he already had everything. but happiness is simple. is to be grateful for what you have. enjoy there. and never be jealous of what other people have achieved. because behind the achievements that have been achieved by someone. then we don't know what path they have taken. and what hardships they have gone through.
