For example, India has a great culture. Today we seem to focus more on making money than preserving the rich culture we inherited.
So,What is more important in life? Culture? or Money?
Both are important. Can we get them both without having to lose one of them? Your views please...

I agree with allknowing...it however depends upon what you mean as culture. To me culture is being nice and kind and like..offering water when people arrive and thanking them for visiting and all that..to others culture is wearing flowers and putting the designs in front of their house, and the third species thinks culture is lighting some diyas in front of god and praying everyday.
First is culture, second is tradition, third is ritual. Most people dont know the difference between the three...and mistake one for the other. :)

Dear friend,
I feel culture is far up than money. But to live culture is not all that is enought nor the money. In life both has it own roles. All rich man is not cultured but culture is something that everyone like to. For a rich person money is nothing but for him culture is something big if it is given importance. I feel a well cultured man gets money from others..

This modernization is affecting our culture- a lot.
Both are important if we only know how to prioritize things in life.
But sad to say that the young generations are not interested much with preserving the culture and even laugh at old traditions.
Good day dear anna

I don't think one needs money to be cultured. Even the poorest of the poor can have culture which the richest may not have.

Well, speaking from experience, I will have to say that people that stand by you in all things are the most important thing. Nothing is worth more than people who stand shoulder to shoulder with you, nothing. Health, of course is a given, but if it's between people that are there for you and money, I will say with all truth that it is people that matter more.
