Money and life

Yes! Money is very important for a person to live. It's fine if you have big ambition in money provided that, you won't take your family or loved ones for granted. We can live a good life without the ambition to have lots of money, but without money in our pockets, we cannot live a good life.

I think money is just a necessary tool for our life, but it is not the most important. The most important thing is we should know why we live on this earth, I mean what is the meanning of life, what can make us happy.

I think that money is important because of the capitalist economy that most of the world runs on. Without money it would be very hard to live so I don't think that ambition to make money is a bad thing, but there should be limits. If a person has made their only purpose in life to be to make money and just value money then other things will be considered less important to them, like other people and relationships. When this is the case then people don't care about the struggle others face in life, once they can earn, and people can get robbed and taken advantage of. Look at when Bernie Madoff did as an example. Many families were hurt financially because of his schemes but he did not care because he was earning from it. Too often people are making enough money to survive and to afford luxuries and yet are still unsatisfied. I don't like this because their greed for money makes poorer people lose. There are some that believe that a poor man's life is the best way and happiest way to live. I believe that to a certain extent, but not entirely. If your family doesn't have enough to eat then it will be hard to be happy. I think that some people that believe that mean that living a simple life is living a happier life and I agree with that. I think in certain societies it is possible to have a good life without this ambition for money because there are ways to provide for yourself. For example, in many developing countries people may not have a lot of money, but they are able to provide for their families and live a comfortable life because they are able to grow their own food to feed their families. I think it is possible to live a good life without ambition for money, but you have to live somewhere where money isn't the only means to provide for your family.

Money is very much important to spend a happy life because we can have good health, good education and every luxary of life with money, so it is not to be denyed that money is not important but family is more important than money but also for tha happiness of family money is needed so ambition for money is not so good but sometimes its needed because of the inflation of these days, money is not enough for necessities, and good health and good education is also very important which cant be get without money so its good to give time to your families and enjoy every moment of life but also enjoyment also require money, so money, money and money everywhere, but we should give sometime with our family and enjoy together.

We give money such values because society demands us to give such things. Money runs the world and all activities we do. Ever one wants to be successful and move up some form of social ladder. This requires the ambition to earn.

we can have a good life without this ambition of money... for its not just about money... its about our family ....its about our love ones ...we can live simple and enjoy life by them ,,,some people keeping busy for money , but they don't know they miss a chance to be happy with their love ones....

Money is not the root of all evil, it is the love of money that is the root of all evil. In some societies you do not need money. Maybe I could trade a basket of vegetables for one of your chickens, or maybe I could trade 10 of my chickens for one of your pigs. There are different ways people can get along. Be self-sufficient as much as possible, and trade for anything else. However, the society I live in would want nothing to do with that. Money is a tool to sustain our lives and give us opportunities. We always must guard against greed, because it causes us to focus on the wrong things. We must try to be content, otherwise there will never be enough money to make us happy. Always, just one more dollar!

Yes, I think you are right, to some people money has become way too important, which is quite sad really. So we all have to do what we can so it doesn't happen to us personally. That is what we can do. We cannot worry about others and their attitude towards it, but we can change our own view on it if needed.

for me, money for life not life for money. if we thing money is everything we can do everything to get it. but if we just thing we need money for life, we can do the best to get it.

ok, you just have to balance everything. Too much of something is bad enough, bad enough! yeah. That's it. Just balance everything. YOu cannot have your family all the time and you don't have money. You've got to work right so that you can keep your family alive. It's just a matter of balance.

I think enjoying life is more important than money, but sometimes as an ordinary human I always feel that I can't enjoying my life without having money, therefore I always try to keep balancing my life. "A wise man should have money In his head but not in his heart" (Jonathan Swift)

no i think money has a good value in all of the humans life,without we can't care our family and enjoy

We need money for shelter, food, and clothes. We also need it for transportation to jobs where we earn money. Truthfully, it would be nice if we didn't have to earn money. That way I could spend time with my family all of the time. It just doesn't work that way.

Money ambition is a challenge for people regardless of their ages becasue it may motivates them to gain money at the cost of other happiness.As you mentioned, they commit crimes or spend every penny in casino.Wether or not they can avoiding doing these silly things depends on their self-control rantional and responsibility. For gamblers knows what they do is not the best solution, but they just cannot help it. I think ambition is endless to human beings. People who have a balanced life enjoy their lives most. They have a healthy schedule. Work time, leisure time, friedns gathering, me time and family time occupay a porpotion of life. Work for life is the most best attitude for me.^_^

You know human kill just because of money. Money is such a very important in every individual. But how we handle them makes the difference.

I really want to have a lot of money, I do not want to be forever oppressed. So, I want to have a lot of money, so I can live to be myself. And maybe I can help others who are oppressed.

Yes, money is very important, but I don't think we should be solely concerned with it. For example, I try to balance my time between going to school full time and trying to be a good boyfriend for my girlfriend. I also make time for my family and friends, because it's the healthy thing to do. It's not healthy to sit behind the computer or work all the time all day long every day. After a while it's possible to burn out and end up giving up on it all if not balanced correctly.

family and enjoying life are definitely more important than money. but money is still important, it's just not extremely important. you can have a good life without a lot of money, but you need some money to have a food, house, etc.. and if you have a goal of traveling or owning a big house you need money for that/
