family is #1 above everything else. work and money don't matter. as long as I have my family I have everything! Work comes second and only because I need money to live so work and money are equal.

see..i m agree with your emotion..but i must say that work always comes first..because our family also supposed to say that to work somewhere for your better life, i mean to say ..work is being supported by your family n u..so i think work comes first, family second, money will be third, cleverly, if u work somewhere, u will automatically getting paid for that work, then wat do u say now?

i say the money and work are together because i only work for the money and if the money isn't enough i don't do the work. my family will always be first. i am a mom and a wife. my child's needs come before my devotion to a job.

one thing i wanna ask u ......u r prefering family as no 1...suppose u r not working anywhere n u need to spend some money on your child for good future of him..then at that time what is most important.money or family..in that case u have to prefer ur work first rather than your family.so i think.work is first n family will be 2nd .because without work n money u cannot run the family......

my family means more to me than anything. even though we might not get along at all times, there is still nothing compared to family and the love you have for them. money and working is not that bad either but to me they are useless without my family to back me up.

i am more concern about family than i am anything else. my family is what keep me happy. yes money can buy plenty and get you alot, but it is nothing compared to family. when i think about my life i think about what makes me the happiest and like i said it's family. no there is nothing wrong with work or money, but they can only get you so far. have a nice day.

they are not useless.......becoz your family say to look out a better career in the future...your family will always be supportive towards your work, so i think u should be much concern towards your work,

but dear.to be frank n confident....u cannot keep work in 2nd .suppose ur child has a dream to go n survive some other countries for his education n at the time u didnt have that much money to spend on him...n at that time wat will u do.. i must say u one thing ..if u will be in work then u can ask someone in the office itself for the money n u can fulfil his dream...but if u r not working then to whom u will ask.because no body is going to ask u without work n money..yes i know family memebers are the best.because through them only.we all r happy..without them we even cannot survive anywhere in the world..teh yr only the confident to do anything....but to fulfill all the dream of your family..u have to rank first to your work...this is only the fact.......this is only a blazing truth ..u have to accept...

I think that family is important, you can't bring them back once you lose them. Family is more like made of glass, they are unique, we can only have one family. Money and work are like made of rubbers, you can earn money and find work, you can replace them, they are like the same. So we must take care of our family above anything else.

Of course family is more important than money and ...well anything else.The way i see things is ,you go to work to make money for your family.I would not care so much about working so hard if it wasn't for my kids and their future,for the food and the rent my family needs.I love my family and they will always come first.Thank you and enjoy your day.

yup family comes first....but dont u think, u cannot stay with your family all the times,u have to prefer work first...everybody in their life, they always love their family,but if your family supposed to say that son u have to c your better career in your life, for that u have to go to another country, city for bright future, then wat u will say at that time, everything is fine, but u have to concentrate first towards your work, becoz ur family will also be satisfy when u will work better..otherwise they will be unhappy for you. thank you

Family, family, family! The answer is always family! Home is a wonderful place, and all members care and love you. Some of them attend you and others need your attention. You love each one. The most imporant thing everyday is going home and spending whole night with them after your hard work. They are the most important reason of you going to work and earning money.

saurav- i pity you! you obviously do not understand the importance of family. when you go to bed at night i hope your money and your "position" and your stuff keeps you warm. when you die (without a family) do you really think your work is going to miss you? lol! you are replaceable in your work. your family cannot replace you! i read through this discussion and it is so good to see how many people KNOW what matters in life. You don't.

Family is everything! In fact, it is the ONLY thing that is worth working for. Money and work are for the support of the family and others(friends and the needy can be extended family, can't they:-). Happiness is there. If work and money are your sole source of joy by themselves it can be a very hollow life. There is satisfaction in work... a job well done, but there is true richness in work done well that benefits those who are in need or those you love. There can be fun found in making money... money can buy and supply lots of fun things, but truly what good are goods without someone you love to share them with? Money and work are fleeting. The love and history associated with familial relationships give life it's meaning.
