when you talk about wealth is not always about the money and the expensive things you can buy. i believe wealth is something that is more important than earthly possesions. if you have all the money in the world but no friends,family, health or love then you are not wealthy at all.

Yes ,we can be wealthy of friends,family ,and joy.Because money is only a paper but can use to buy and etc..
But the most is need God to be as wealthy treasures in life..

I am not wealthy at all. I only ate twice today. I can buy cheap things also and would like a little more income but the economy is bad. The internet adds a little income beside a regular job. Besides that getting money is really a complicated challenge if you were not born already rich. Life goes on though and happiness still can be found.

Well, i am confortable with my own,and just need more income to help my needs.
I don't need to be rich more,but just like regular .
Being richy for me is not good, because money can be evil if i am rich and will forget God.

Financially, I am very far from being wealthy. I struggle each and every day, trying to figure out how to pay the bills. Many people live week to week, I live day to day.
In other ways, I am very wealthy. I have many blessing in my life to be thankful for.

I was born in a very rich family, left as I was 15 years old and abandoned by them.
That was fine with me since the only thing I wanted very badly is to be me.
Not be a fake person, lying an cheating.
It was a very high price I payed for that but I did not regret it (and everything happend to me) for 1 single day.
Now I am poor but I learned how to manage, how to safe, how to make priorities and also buy what is needed or something I like.
By now it's a sport and since I am very creative I don't care about it anymore either (which doesn't mean it's always nice).
My kids eat 3 times a day, I eat 2 times a day, weekends (no school) and (school) vacations we eat only 2 times a day. There are days we don't have cooked meals, we seldom eat meat etc... while it's too expensive but nobody cares.
We have our own bed, a roof above our head, a place to call home. When the electricity is not fooling us and the heath is working during winter time we are happy.
I feel rich because I feel me and way more free as in that former life a long long time ago. This is the most important thing to me and I really hope my kids will grow up with the same attitude and amount of self esteem.
A little tip: if you want to buy something bigger.. don't buy the little cheap things, let them be! Safe the money for that bigger thing you will feel so satisfied if you are able to buy that.

Hi, friend. We are the same when it comes to the word "wealth" and it means "treasure", I don't have much. I worked to earn but it is just enough to buy our basic needs but at least I am able to give help to my mother financially. But when we speak of "wealth" and it means "friends", then I am very much wealthy. I do have lots of friends from my workplace, from my school since elementary, secondary and tertiary. In our neighborhood and other places as acquaintances. I am very overwhelmed that my friends are good to me and also I do have online friends and you are one of them.

Well, for the moment, I can't really say that I'm rich. My husband and I are somewhat struggling to make things work out financially. I was lucky enough to grow up in a stable family. My parents aren't rich, but they aren't poor either. So, that was nice. But now, my husband and I have finished our university education, and are just struggling to get jobs and such, which makes things a little difficult for us at the moment. We're hoping things change soon, and we're doing the best we can to make things work out.

Good day, befrindwithme. It all depends on one's concept of wealth. To me, wealth is more than just money and the things that money can buy. It is more on fulfillment and achievement of goals. I consider myself wealthy because I am happy with what I have, happy with my family, healthy and able to understand and deal with life as best as I can. Life is not a bed of roses, neither is it an endless string of thorns. For every problem, there is a solution, for every question there is an answer. I am a simple person with simple needs. I deal with my problems one step at a time. I believe that all we need is faith in God, self-confidence, patience, persistence and respect for our fellow human beings. God bless you, my friend and grant you peace, joy and the realization of your dreams.

Good day befrindwithmme. It all depends on one's concept of wealth. To me, wealth is more than just money and the things that money can buy. Yes, I consider myself wealthy because I have been able to find ways to achieve my goals. I am a very simple person with very simple needs. I do things one step at a time. I am happy with my family and with most of the things that I have accomplished. I am healthy. I know that life is not a bed of roses, neither is it an endless string of thorns. But for every problem, there is a solution; for every question, there is an answer. All we need is the right approach in dealing with life: faith in God, self-confidence, patience, persistence and respect for our fellow human beings. God bless you, my friend and help you achieve your goals in life.

I am neither. I am not poor and you cannot really say that I am rich. I am comfortable. I can buy things that I want, not everything of course. I think it is a good thing that I am not really into the expensive designer shoes, bad and clothes. I also don't like buying expensive jewelry. I like receiving them, but not buying them :). I go to school and have two jobs. I am a freelance stylist and I also have a job at a cafe.

No, I am not a wealthy person. I graduated from University and that's what my parent wanted me to get. I was and am proud of my parents, because they provide me enough money so whenever I asked them money, they have always had something to be given or shared. They also love me being their child because I was good boy and tractable boy. They're really wealthy. They're hard worker's parents. I love them so much. They did not only fill my life with goods but also with love.

I am a poor lady,i hate poverty and i love money,i also have a dream that one day i would be a millionare,but now i indeed is a poor woman.fortunately.i am still a young lady .i have enough time to let my dream into reality.every day i collect all kinds of information and i hope there will be one opportunity i can take advantage of these sources to be the rich.my salary is poor too.sometimes you need to ask your boss to raise your salary if you have enough excuses.i did that and i have succeeded.so you can communicate with your boss sincerely.and best wishes for you.if you want to be the rich ,you must establish a bussiness of your own,and this need more efforts,so let us work hard for the dream to be a rich person

I don't have much money actually, but I feel I'm wealthy enough cos I have everything to feel wealth. I have something which can be bought by million money. I have happiness. I have family, job, friend, can eat three times a day, lovely country.
In my opinion, wealthy is not only measured by the quantity of our saving on bank, our gold, our property but on how much happiness that we felt and can be shared to others.
