Do you still have the time for your lover and family when you are rich?

I just watch the movie. It is about the man who work hard and become a rich man. he don't have time for his wife, she has an affair with his customer. Then I think about the real world. If you work hard and get rich then you have no time for your lover. She makes a mistake about that. What do you do? Are you still happy with the money you have?

I think persons who have financial success can also be motivated to have personal success. They can be organized about the things they have to do and can prioritize the relationships. I think movies are really exaggerated.

I think you can do that but by the time you are rich, you just can't stop yourself I guess. So I think we have to remind ourselve all the time that our purpose is make our lovers to be happy. So we don't forget that we willnot stay so long on this world so take some time to take a good care of them before they are not there for you or vice versa.

The bible said that money is the root of evil. My pastor said that keep money in your hand, not in your heart.

I would always put my family first before money anyday. Money will go away eventually, but not your family.

That's sad, often times we work hard to provide for our family, then we don't settle just to be able to provide for them we want to give them almost everything so we work harder and harder realizing it late that because we have been very busy working we've already lost the ones we love, the reason why we are working hard after all! Just another paradox of life i guess.

You are right. I think the purpose is very important.

The stories movies contain are mostly based on real life. Yes, it is quite difficult to believe that rich men do not own their time. Most call them, people who made money their masters. Why? They always worry about their investments, they are afraid to lose any sizeable amount at whatever trading there that goes on. Their worries are countless and, for us lowly ones, senseless. Since they worry so much about losing and aching so much for more financial gains (they never feel their riches has already reached the desired level) family is left behind.

I agree with you. I think of Bill Gate.
