Granted, the money helps us to have clear days, we have to worry about tomorrow ... but it is contrasted with a normal person to someone who has a few billion more into account?
It goes to the toilet just like all of us? even if you do not eat as eating caviar?
Not sleeping well, even if it is silk sheets?
Not suffer as they lose a loved one, or just enjoy the fragrance of spring when they feel?
On the contrary, I think has more cares, and kidnap someone Principles for the money, do not forget to call the President's birthday ... and even do not believe that is sure to not buy a domestic brand somehow wrong toothpaste., you say?
Not really that many times is too much is too much?
I remember what my father taught me when he was alive, and I was teenager .. he said something like; "When you do not feel well in the presence of someone who has a lot of money and airs of superiority please close your eyes for a few moments, and imagine him not with money, sitting on the toilet for daily necessities, then you realize that is your equal, as he goes to the toilet as he are eating, bathing, playing or ".... so arguing, the money is not everything, and all are equal, that we will or not.

The most part of us are ordinary being,we lived a simple life,had to work hard everyday to earn money,just for paying the bill,the rent,buying the food.someone may have a dream that someday will become a millionair,but it's not realistic.The rich is rarely,we knew one poit important that is everyday a good day!

Money has importance in all the times. Everybody is needed money to lead their life. But living with limited desires and contentment with what they have also important.

Hello ice.
If it only was that simple.
It is sad that in general, mostly poorer people like you and me for example get to think of others, and want to save the world for instance, but the people who have the money (again, in general, they may be few exceptions) couldn't care less about some remote island with animals in it or some corals somewhere in the oceans, but care more for what new type of car to buy...
I know that is kind of sad, but while we want to say that we all are equal, i think it is a matter of interpretation in the end and a matter of attitude.

Ever since I have gained a sense of maturity, I have come to realize that money is not everything. I have been in life where I am not that rich but i was able to buy all the things that I used to dream of. There was even a time when I have to buy something in the mall so that at least I have a little shopping bag that i carry as I go out of the mall.I had simple dreams and I can say I reach that point in my life where I can say I had of taste of it all.
Until one day , I lost my soul mate. And there I realized that aside from knowing that money isnt everything, I learned that money is nothing when you lose the one you love most.

I also feel like you same thought even the person those have millions of money they also eat the meals like us, goes toilet or for bathing like us, but not sleeping well like us because they always worry about their money and think about next day earning. But enough money means good sleeping and no tension.
