Many people use to say that health is wealth and variuos people nod their heads in concession. But others have different opinion about health and wealth. Someone defined health as the physical state of man. While wealth is defined as a man possesions both materials and money. But in the foregoing definitions health was not embeded in wealth. could they have said that GOOD HEALTH IS WEALTH. Because one's health could be good or poor. If one's health is poor can it amount to wealth? If good, how does it become wealth.

of course, we cant go on our everyday life without being healthy. we need health and wellness in our everyday life so we could maximize our capabilities.. its not literally taken from the definitions of the two i guess. we have to read between the lines i guess.

which means that you agreed that health is wealth. for one to function effectively, he or she must be healthy, the the health can translate to financial well being.

yes, you are in mylot because your health is good. you are also in mylot because you have money to buy a laptop, pay for your internet access etc. if you have no such money even if you have good health, there is no way you can be in mylot. So i disagree with you that health is wealth. there are independent.

It is good to be healthy and your health is helped by being wealthy so that you can afford medication or hospital treatment.
Many people in the world are unhealthy because they are poor and unhealthy as a direct result of the conditions in which they live.

I definitely believe in that saying. Physical wealth is just a temporary thing if your health is not in good condition. I do believe that you would get wealthier if your healthier compared to those that make money and forget their health in their pursuit for material wealth only.

i disagree with you because if your are healthy and there is no food to eat, that your health will be gone.
