i want you to read the comparison of health vs wealth here
to make money we loose our health
and then to restore our health we loose money
we live as if we are never going to die
and we die as if we never lived
and always remember that life is not measured by the number of breaths we take
but
by the moments that take our breath away

Nice opinion. It's hard to choose one of them because it will depend on what circumstances are you taking in. For me, I will choose being wealthy. Being healthy is a very good option and that is what everybody wanted to be. But being healthy isn't forever right? Days will come that you will get sick. Then you spend money. But your not a wealthy person so you theres a limit in your treatment. If being wealthy, definitely, it can't buy health. But it can prevent and restore health. You can take supplements recommended by doctors that will improve your health or if you're sick, you could treat yourself and restore your health because you have money. You can be healthy and wealthy if you choose being wealthy.

so you chose job over yourself in other words okay. of course! where do we get living if we do not work alright? unless we are living backwards that is possible.
let's make it balance as yourself alone is the fundamental of living okay. were you be standing still at work if you do not have the energy to sustain your biological needs at work?

Greetings!
I would choose health because how can I enjoy life if I'm not healthy? Though I have a lot of money and riches, I can't enjoy life because I'm not healthy. Yes. Others would say that they would choose wealth but not all the time wealth can make you healthy because not all of the illnesses can be cured. If you're healthy, you can do any thing to have money. You just have to do your best. With a healthy body, you can enjoy life. :)

Health first, because without good health, it will be very hard for us to achieve wealth. And without wealth, it is very hard for us to maintain good health, especially when we are getting old. So, health first, then wealth, and then back to health.

Be wealthy! I am certain that I am healthy already.lol. By being rich, I can maximize my resources in keeping my health secured and in good shape. That's the way it is.

I would prefer Health because if we are in a healthy state, we can be wealthy but not the vice versa. You can also feel happy with a healthy state of mind. The wealth brings worries.

Health is wealth. Having a healthy body and a healthy mind can lead me to the right path of becoming wealthy. I'll have a perfect body and an intelligent mind to do things. I can study your lessons easier and work without worries. Manage a business, attract people to be my clients and even make them work for me. Sharing them my secret of becoming healthy, can even help me wealthier. Wealthy to have them as friends and followers, and wealthy in terms of money and success.

'Health is wealth' so goes the age old proverb. So you can easily understand that I would prefer health to wealth. But if I am given any option, I should like to be both healthy and wealthy.

Being healthy is always better than being wealthy. A healthy person can enjoy his/her life without a crumb here, pain there, ache here..... The common quotation "Health is Wealth" means that health or being healthy will be our greatest wealth in life. A wealthy and rich but a diabetic person is always worse than being physically, mentally, and emotionally fit but has a simple life. No one can buy a life, and so a health.

Can I be both? Wealthy and healthy? Lol. BUT if i were to choose between the two....... I honestly would say wealthy. So if im stricken with some disease, I can still acquire treatment because i can afford it. Lol. Still, best answer is both =)
