Does Having Money Make Some Decisions Easier?

[Mayor of ogba]

There are people who has plans that could change their lives for good but lack of money is what is limiting them from taking the decision to execute the plans and they will have to wait patiently when they will have money to execute the plans. So having money is damn good because it gives you hope and help you to take decisions easily, and anything that you want to purchase you will just go the place it is sold and buy it without deliberate too much, and you won't treat your needs based on relative importance.

But what does the current reality say? The one who has a lot of money is the most respected person. Do we have to go only to the bad path to earn a lot of money? Can't we earn money through good paths? We can definitely earn a lot of money through good business or investment, in this case, why should we commit any crime? I will refrain from crime on my own responsibility, I will manage my business well, I will invest in many places through intelligence, and in this way I will become rich. Why do people think that the rich have become rich through corruption or that only those who are rich are involved in corruption? Such words seem very unnecessary to me.
Personally, I want to be rich, as much as possible, a lot, because I have seen how much their value increases with money, but I will definitely do it in an honest way, you can also become rich in an honest way, I will chase money to lead my life in an honest way.

Having money does not automatically mean someone got it through corruption or one kind of illegal means and I call that mentality poor man mentality cause there are so many people who built their wealth through years of hard work, legitimate businesses, and just by making good financial decisions. The most important thing is not just becoming rich, but being able to maintain that wealth without compromising your values or hurting others.

Obviously and of course many people become rich in an honest way in the sense that they get it by working hard sacrificing a lot of effort and time in the process, but on the other hand sometimes like there are just some people who think that we get all the wealth by illegal means, therefore do not easily conclude something if for example you do not know the facts.
Maintaining wealth is indeed much more important, but as the saying goes that maintaining is always much more difficult than getting.

I believe that one of the less known advantages that money brings is that it minimises the pressure decisions to take. A cash reserve does not mean that you are required to sell an investment. Borrow money or settle for a poor purchase when a surprise came up. In that way liquidity is valuable even without a return. It is valuable. It is interesting to note that two people with the same income may have wildly varying levels of financial freedom depending on the amount of money they've already tied up. Not all wealth is measured in additional possessions. Sometimes it is measured in the fact that you have the resources available that you don't have yet.

Yeah having money can save one from a lot of big mistake like you stated about some certain jobs having a savings will help us from working .I think I flow with that and that's because is obviously true a lot of people find themselves doing some certain jobs because they don't have any opinion due to their financial status but imagine one with money I don't think that will be possible they will have to wait and go for the best money is indeed having money is important in aspect of decision making

To me I think money is the answer to all questions. Know matter how good an idea is if not followed with money its same as nothing, the presence of money brings about peace and adequate insurance when we consider getting involved in any kind of activities.
The rich gets richer not because of how smart they are but because the poor with smart ideas must come to them for sponsorship then there money starts speaking for them and turns all positive ideas into wealth.
Life becomes more easier for the rich not because they are that good but because they have the resources required to make there dreams come to reality.

I started thinking about this  after noticing something that does not get discussed much when people talk about money. Sometimes having little money can actually make certain things more expensive. For example someone with enough funds can buy something in bulk when the price is better and someone who is low in funds may have to keep buying smaller quantities at a higher cost.
Someone with savings can take there time looking for a better job while someone who needs money immediately may have to accept the first opportunity available even if the pay is poor or the conditions are bad. Even with emergency having some money available can allow you to fix a small problem before it becomes a bigger and expensive one.
So maybe money does not only buy things, maybe money only buys flexibility and that flexibility can sometimes allow someone to make easier decisions.

This is where I find the idea interesting. We often tell people to make better financial decisions but how much of that decision making actually depends on having financial freedom in the first place?
Does having money give people an advantage beyond the money itself because they have more options available for them?
And if that is true, could one of the hidden cost of being poor be that you have fewer opportunities to choose the easier option?

I’m curious how other see this. Is financial flexibility itself a form of wealth?

One of the biggest and hidden cost of being poor is that you will have no little room to make costly mistakes in life. When a rich person makes a bad choice, either by making a bad business choice or decision or even buys the wrong asset, it doesn't affect their lifestyle as much they can always bounce back, all they do is to dust it off and see it as a lesson learned successfully. But if a poor or lower-class person makes a wrong move or bad decision, he or she will get stressed up and mentally distressed because just a single mistake can put them in a huge debt. It is very easy to make smart financial choices when you have a solid safety net to bounce back to but when you don't then you will have to think through choices or decisions before you make them.
