I think money can't buy a person's dignity. Nowadays money can buy almost everything even love but if a person stands for something he/ she believes in and is willing to do everything to fight for that then that is the one thing money can't buy.

hello, For me money cannot buy your happiness with your family, friends and special someone. Even if you are happy with all of your things or luxury it always lacking for something and you think that it is not enough and that's what you called happiness. right?

Well there are many types of people but sadly yes, there are more and more people that regards money as the ultimate goal thus selling dignity and faking love are a normal practice to them. So, when you have lots of money, be careful when using it cause you don;t want to use it to buy a fake love...

I would say that it depends on situation,I do not know many people myself that sell love or all those important things that we strive to achieve and gain in our life.However, I am not sure if those things will change depending on situations but I am sure that there is one thing that nobody can buy,youth and immortality,both of them are not achieved with money .Immortality needs character and youth even if you look young you know you are not so what is the point.

They say money can buy Love, It sure can help in the department but in reality it cant buy love. If the Girl/Guy is only into you for your wealth, Your marriage is doomed before you even say "I Do". Anyone Agree with me, or am I being too cynical? -Larry

Well, when looking at this, there is a lot of things that money cannot buy. People think money is what life revolves around when really I know it is hard to exist without it, but there are a lot of things it does not as well. Money cannot buy time, Love, Happiness, and relationships. It takes time to make and earn money, but money cannot slow down or make life go faster. It cannot help a relationship in anyway other than financially. It might help for a time in other ways for Love and a relationship, but when the money is gone that is when you really find out who you are and if you can stand. If it was based on money you are in trouble, and nothing can help that except for god.

Hello! This is a good question. I think money can and cannot buy quite a lot of things. Money is a currency valid only in the physical social human world. Animals do not care whether you dress yourself with money so pet's affection can never be bought but can be nurtured (by money of course). Money has become a great necessity nowadays because people are becoming so attracted with the physical things in life. For people who really know themselves and know what they want in life, money is nothing but a commodity for animal survival. For they know that true happiness and satisfaction is found beyond the physical realm that money can buy. Just thinking out loud. This phrase caught my attention. :)

Money can't buy you freedom from the dependency on money. It can't buy dignity, faith, beauty or life itself. It cannot buy salvation or eternity..Enjoy!

You are right when you say that money can't buy Dignity. There is inner peace that cannot be bought from money as well.

Money can not by many thing. You can buy food with money but not hunger. Money cannot buy true love. If some one love you for money than it is not love it is selfness. True love want scarifice not money

Yes, you are right. Money can buy everything. Even though a human's organ, we can buy it too. Without money, we can not survive. This society will always discriminate those without money. This is the fact in this latest trend of the society. Shall it be good or a bad sign of moral deterioration ? For me, it should be a moral deterioration.

Money cannot buy wisdom. He might be able to buy all the books, hire the best tutor in the world but he cannot just have wisdom. He need to work for it, study hard to have it, toil hard to get it.

Money can only buy material things but it cannot buy friendship and love. Even if you are the richest man in the world, you cannot find these at the shopping mall. In order to attain abstract things like friendship and love, you have to learn loyalty and commitment. You must plant and invest your time in order for that value to grow. Money cannot buy these things. These are the priceless things in life. Happy mylotting!

Hi santos mari chris: I agree with you on the fact that money can't buy dignity but I think tyhat it can't buy love either. If you are with someone for the money you are not really loving him/her. Human relationships are complex and you can buy feelings. ALVARO

money? it can buy whatever we desire at a certain price. we live in a material world and if a person is being bought because of... let's say, for her love but no deal is struck then the buyer would just find someone else who's willing. sad right?

A money cannot buy love and a true friend , well you can say that you have a true friend, would you think they are just with you because you have your money? you are always treating them to the restaurant or going out with them, but didn't you realize that if you do not have money you have no friends , and they will not love you and especially if your character is not that good.

Money can't buy LOVE because it is undoubtedly unconditional. I agree that it can never buy happiness as well. I know for a fact because there are a lot of people that has the money but is never happy. They are rather empty even if their pocket is full.
