No because I not do fool money can't buy be love. If man buys be gifts or give me a gift that is on them. Money can' t buy affection.

I think money is great when it comes to buying the essentials such as a home, and food, ect., but when it comes to material items I think we should learn to live without it. Some people try to buy other people's love or friendship...and that isn't right.

I have wealthy relatives who've told me they love me but haven't supported me when I've really needed them most. I haven't approached them and asked for their help, but they've known I was having it rough and could have helped on their own, and didn't ...\n\nThere are some generous souls and I'm one of them. I'm not rich, have no degree and have had to struggle - sometimes terribly - to build what I have but now have a net worth of about $600,000 and make well over $100,000/year ... As far as I'm concerned, money's just another tool and if a friend of mine needs my help in any way, including financially, I'll help them and not expect repayment.\n\nI've done that several times. I'm a good friend, in part because I know how it is to need and go without. I don't trust or expect that anyone will ever help me, but I'm always willing to help others.\n\nBe aware, though, that most of those offering help will want something in return whether they say-so or not, and that sometimes it'll be your soul.\n\nFighting it out and going it alone is almost always best. You know you can trust yourself ...\n\nWrite me if you wish: laippletm@yahoo.com

Not necessarily. Some wise man once said: there are three main ways to get rich:\n1) Inherit\n2) Marry a rich person\n3) Get lucky\n\nNow the last category captures a lot of situations. A simple one is winning the lottery. A less obvious one is making an investment or starting a business in an area that turns out to be the next big thing in 5 years. Of course, most of the people who do this and get rich will claim they are visionaries. In reality, 99% are just plain lucky. There is a very good book on this subject, called "Fooled by Randomness"

being wealthy does not make you satan.it is just you thrive more than the average joe. and it ok that you have a little more money than the average joe cause you work for it... you shouldn't hate on the rich you should learn from them so you could gain your own wealth..

If your a successful entrepenuer, sure, why not. It can be stressful and running a small business alone can be alot of work. As long as you don't overwork yourself and don't take it all too seriously. It's great to be responsible for your own destiny and not have a boss.

There are different kinds of independence, but you're right. We usually rely on other people for some things. For instance, some people are independently wealthy, and they make all their own money. They don't live off of anyone else's earnings. But, they're probably dependent on their friends or family for other things, like when they need advice. Nobody is totally independent, except maybe for hermits.

I'm a single mother, but I don't consider myself to be poverty stricken.  But I can tell you when all the financial burden is on one individual instead of two, it can create financial hardship.  Even if a single mother works and meets all of her obligations, clearly it's a job that was meant for a mother and father.   Just do an engine search and type in single mothers, there's plenty of resources and information about single mothers.

For some, it is the only means they have to interpret their own self worth.  I would much rather have the true wealth of who I am inside without having to luxuriate it for the world on the outside.  Money may make a lot of things possible, but it doesn't bring forth truth nor selflessness in some...in intensifies the greed in both, men and women.

Just because you have money doesn't mean you will be happy. Besides the love of money is the root of all evil.\nwhy not work as hard as you can and earn the money that you need?

YES. but if I had to do without one, it would be the money, because... can't buy me love, and my health is important.\nSome things can not be bought. In fact the most important things can not be purchased.\nIn fact I have married for both love and lust, but never for money, which would make me a (rhymes with poor, starts with an H sound) and that is one more thing you can't buy, your self respect.\n\nToilet paper and botled water is nice, though, and since we as a society have progressed beyond using leaves and streams to take care of these matters, one must have money also.\n\nLeaves and streams still beats no love or lust though, because you can always leave the forest and get a job.\n\nOf course everyone's priorities are different.\nSome parents would eat their own young for 100 bucks.\nThere is a link to a 'love or money' test at the bottom of the sources list below that will help you to determine for yourself just how much love and money mean to you in your relationships.

The most diffilcult part when handing out money is weather the person that you are giving it to is going to put it to good use. Everyone in life should make it for themselves. The wealthy did. Most of them did not take handouts and they achieved their wealth by hard work. My hand out to people is that I give them jobs. If they plan to make good use of the money and invest in their future instead of blowing it all, then they too will have wealth in the near future. Although we have money to spare, it is not our job in life to work for others who can't see that they can't make it themselves.

Money might buy a lot of stuff, but the richness of family and friends, cannot be purchased by money.  I've been both and now I"m poor and happier than I've ever been in my life - my health is gone, but I have peace, joy, hope, a wonderful husband, a great son, and a family that rallies round in prayer and support.  All my past dollars couldn't buy my health, couldn't buy me peace or joy, a good husband, couldn't have turned my son into a great young man, or caused my family to rally - so if you have chosen to leave the money and gain the greater things in life, then you have chosen well!

i think if you want to start your own business then you need a bank loan for that you hav to hav colateral. do you hav that? also my hubby is a business man. it is hell. he is very rich but he doesnt hav a life, day and night he is on the job. he has stress attacks and he needs medicine to sleep. the money is great and he  calls all the shots but he has no life. we miss him always. he has to go to factory or abroad even in the middle of the night. there is no routine, no relaxsation and always  high stress,. sometimes he wished he could just work from 9 to 5 and leave all his worries behind at work.think about it...do you want a family life or money?you cant have both.

They didn't work for their wealth?\n\nYour an idiot, lots of extremely wealthy have earned by creating something very important. So think about those people, what they created, and imagine your life without those things
