People go for money to live their life but in turn lose the time they need to spend a life. In my childhood i didn't had money but had time to live my life, to spend time with my family, although I was not left with any option, to spend time with friends, I wish I could live with them forever... I grew up and lived for money to earn more money to live my life larger but sometimes later I found my life's slipping out of hand, now I have money but no one to enjoy with. I have the power to buy the world but no one to live for. I was left all alone in this ordeal of making money. Have I taken a wrong decision of going after money?? Have I stayed happy with a 10000 bucks a month but with my friends instead of getting some 10 times more than that now but with no friends?

As for me, I believe that everything in this world needs money, but money is NOT everything...Not everything in this world can be bought by money...Money for me is not something to be sacrificed that easily, but given a choice between life and money I will rather have less money but more friends and family to enjoy that together than the other way around...For me, I will definitely advice you to stay with 10 grand AND friends rather than 100 grand WITHOUT friends to share the joy with...Life is far more valueless than any sum of money you can have in this world...

Hi there guru99!!!
To be honest with you, as of now my goal is to be rich.But this doesn't mean that I am very addicted to money.It is not bad to aspire for money and aspire to be rich someday,what's bad is when you make money the center of your life and forget about things that are more important like your love ones.
You can dream and force yourself to work hard everyday just to be rich someday,but you must not forget that you don't only have responsibilities for your self but also to your family.We should all learn to prioritized and give time to each and everything that is needed to be done.
