Hi Bottan, we all knew the importance of money, we need it to finance our daily living and get out for any future troubles. Why are we working? why are so eager to earn it's because of the money. But we have to watch out also on the trap, having a lot of money isn't really a sin. It's just turn bad when we do not know how to use it. Have you noticed some of the wealthy people are the ones who can extend to other much?,they used the money as a channel of blessing to other. Money is a part of our living. Thanks and good day!

of course not,though money is important in our life. is not the most important thing in our life.money can buy a bed,but can't buy a good sleep,money can buy a house,but can't buy a close home.money can buy a lot of things,but can't buy health.is that right?so money isn't everything in our life.i think it just a kind of useful thing.in a peaceful world.the most important thing in our life is to help others.make our world more beautiful.maybe one day we all live in love with our goodness,joy and delight.maybe one day we all share in joy and celebrate light!this is the most important thing in one's life.it's a hope of all over the world.

I don't think that money is everything but having a lot more than you actually need can be very useful, don't you think. So always remember to spend less than you have and make sure that part of your monthly expense is 30% of your salary direct into your savings account. If you keep at this for 15-20 years, you'll have a really nice and comfortable living following that because you've put away enough for many rainy days. I speak from experience because I used to spend every dime and more but now I have some savings and it gives you some sort of security knowing that if you happen to lose your job tommorow you won't go hungry.

no, I don't think so. Actually it is no fresh question, most of people need money to afford living, or get prefect life. If we only regard money as one of dream, should accomplish nothing in our life.
