Do you trust that you can't enjoy life without money?

Hi there Cross! I can never enjoy life without money. In order to enjoy life, I need to know that I have financially secured my son's future and without money, I can never do that.

MOney is needed for each and everything in life and also everybody has money to lead life and it's only taht soem have less money and others have more and moreover, one cannots ay thatwithout money one cannot be happy...thisis untrue

Well sometimes I think this about myself but I seriously hope that if I had to, I could get by with the absolutel bare necessities like basic food, water and shelter. Today on Oprah there was a story on 'freegans' who get their food clothes and furniture from garbage dumpsters. The stuff they get from these dumpsters are often perfect, with maybe a blemished package. Now the people who did this were not poor, a lot of them were actually professionals. These people were disgusted at the amount of waste that humans create and the effect that it's having on the world. I really admire these people and think that more people should live with that type of mentality. Not necessarily picking food out of dumpsters but by realising that life isn't all about material possessions and maybe we are living beyond our means, creating so much terrible waste.

money almost cost everything now. we can't enjoy much of life if we don't have enough money. enjoyment in this era is equivalent to money. although money can't still buy happiness, but the things that will make you happy needs money too. but there are still creative ways to enjoy life without spending too much. i enjoy life just watching movies at home with my family and my boyfriend. i think that doesn't need a lot of money to spent. if you don't have much money and you wanna stay happy you can try creative activities which do not require spending too much money.

i trust in ALLAH, if he wants me to lead life wothout money then its fine, otherwise no

I lived most of my life with barely enough money to pay bills and eat, but I was happy. When I got money, life was easier, but I remained frugal in everything I bought. The extra money was put aside for my kids. I'm trying to live a more natural life now. My husband and I bought a home in the mountains, on a lake with 3 acres of land. Yes, it took money to do that, but we sold a house for $225,000 more than we paid for it. That paid for this house. I'm now trying to get back to where money and electricity weren't everything. I use solar energy, buying a little at a time, and have my office completely run by it. We use solar lighting outside. I dry my clothes on an old-fashioned clothesline instead of the electric dryer. Our electric bill has gone down drastically. I also planted fruit and nut trees, berry bushes, and have a large vegetable garden. I barter with my neighbors for flower bulbs and seeds. I would much rather live a life without bills, so I'm doing what I can to work toward that end. We buy things to make our lives easier, then have to work harder to make the money to pay for them. It's a vicious cycle that I want out of, and I seem to be doing just that... slowly, granted, but I'm getting there.

It was put to me this way once and I agree 100%... Money doesn't make you happy - choices do ... money gives you choices. In my opinion it couldn't have been said better or be truer.

I won't enjoy life without money ,because there is no place don't need money,e need money for everything.No one can travel without money ,we can do nothing without money.

With or without money it's all bring trouble just live with it whatever goes i think that would be happier that way. But i would prefer to have money rather than not that's my opinion.

Yes I do trust that you can enjoy life without money. We have very little money and we are going to have fun with the children this weekend without spending any money. We have a season ticket for the swimming pool so we will take the children for a swim one morning. We shall walk to the woods and have lunch inthe woods, visit the duck pond and feed the ducks, and also go to the swing park. Other things we will do to enjoy ourselfs is a trip to the library, bike rides and visit friends and help them to walk there dogs. All this will cost no money. If it is hot and we want ice cream we will go to the frezeer in the dining room and get one from there. you can create a very good enjoyable time with the children with no money.
