My opinion: Money can buy friends, but I would question the legitimacy of those friendships. How do you defind who is a true friend?

I believe that money can buy friends however this kind of friendship is not likely to last since as long as you lost your money those friends you got will go away with it. I think this is the most common problem with celebrities, their friends only lasts as long as their money.

When you have the money, you will be surrounded by plenty of people. But it is really are to know who among them are your friends who are true indeed. You can surely not gauge friendship in times of plenty and wellness but on the contrary, true friends are those who will be with you in times of need and difficulty.

A true friend is someone that will be there for you no matter what your financial status is. If someone says they are your friend, only after finding out you have money, I would suspect that is not a true friend.

These are true friends who helped you when you suffered. Money friends would disappear when you lost money. Time is the best tool to distinguish best friend and fake friend. Be wise in your life, don't let fake friends confuse you.

For me,yes money can buy friends,especially if one person is rich.It means that he/she is powerful.Because we all believed that money serves as a power in this world.For instance,neither in a way of giving nor sharing wealth.It is a secretly or not too obvious that you attracting them with your money,is one of the way of buying friends and become your close's friends.
