Would you rather have lots more money or lots more true friends? Me I've never really had a lot of money so I wouldn't know what to do with it. And when I really needed help with anything my friends were there supporting me so I think I would have to say more friends. What do you think and why? Please explain.

I would rather have more money as long as I have my family and relatives with me. We can buy whatever we wanted, foods, clothes, things, cars, houses, gadgets, etc. because we have a plenty of money. Even lesser friends, at least we can afford whatever stores will have.

Family and relatives are very important to me, there are the ones that I turn to when I have problems. We have the same blood flowing within us that's why I can say they're better to have than friends. If we have plenty of money, we will still be happy even we have lesser friends because they can also be considered as friends. For your question on giving up my family and friends for money, of course I would change my answer, I won't give them up for money. I can't live alone. There's a saying that "No man is an island". Thanks for your comments! Have a nice day!

I would take the money. I already have a few good friends that I can count on, so I don't really need any more friends I guess. However, I am really having a hard time financially right now, so I could definitely use the cash...LOL

..well, for me, money and friends should go together.. What I mean is, we needed money to survive and we needed friends too.. Even if we have lots of friends but don't have money, of course we can't depend on them all the time for our financial needs.. Same thing, even we have lots of money but we don,t have friends, we have nothing to turn too.. For me, I want money but not so much as I want friends..

..you're right.. there are people who pretended to be your friend because you have money.. and in times of need, you can't turn to them because they only wanted to share your happiness but not your problems..

I would TOTALLY rather have more true friends. Nothing out-weighs a real friendship and now-a-days they are few and far between. I would give anything to have a real, caring, and trustworthy friend.

I think when you have money you are going to have friends. I guess it's hard to find true friends and if you are lucky some will stick with you for the the rest of your life. I guess in the end when everybody is busy with their own life, the only true friend you have with you is your gf/bf or husband/wife.

Well, i think any sensible person would say, FRIENDS,........
I'd like to have at least a few TRUE friends in life ......but you know thats not so easy,....you just cant to out and search for good friends.......and even if you tried to do that, it'll take you a lifetime.....it's much more difficult than earning a lot of money..:-)
those who have their friends and family standing by them in any problem, even when they do not have any money...are really blessed.
i have seen many people come and go in my life and i can say for sure that it doesn't take a long time for people to change!!!
well, i feel lucky to have few very good friends and also a very supportive family..:-)

At this point in my life, I'd have to say money. I have a handful of people I consider true friends, and even then, my relationships with them seem to be ever-changing. Our lives change. We get older. Things happen. We move away. It becomes longer and longer in-between phone calls, emails, letters. I know some people will always be there for me if I need to cry, vent, or share a happy moment... but right now, I'd take a lot of money over more friends.
