Has there ever ben a word which is used so much?do we really need all the money we wish for?Probably not.Even my son who is 10 says wistfully."i wish i could think of a way to make lots of money".He's thinking of all the games and toys he could buy, of course,but its sad to think money is so important even to children.

I would have to say, I would rather have family than money. Although I do believe there is such a thing as not having enough money.

i think money is important because it helps you get where you want to be in life. like, if you wish of having a big house with lots of room and nice furniture, you cant achieve that without having a good paying job. you need money for that house. you need money to eat, and to keep yourself in a relatively comfortable position. kids want money because there are things that they would like to get and enjoy, but i do think that there is a limit that you should teach kids with money. if not, all their thoughts will turn into money making ideas. money is important but you also have to realize that there are other things that shadow money. having things like good relationships, a job you like, helping people, and pretty much working for the good of others as well as yourself are more important things than money.
