As a person, what comes up with ur mind when we hear the word life?? does it makes you think of anything that affect your emotional stuff?? What if you question yourself what would be my life without having money?? do i still feel happy or not?? we know that sometimes money can bring us to be evil, but then money is the source of life now, without it, life is difficult. Nowadays, things are concerned with money, without money u have nothing. except spiritualy and emotionaly. We struggle for money and to make our life beautiful by the cause of money. If you will be asked, life without money or with money??

Money is a necessity in order to live nowadays and yet it has to be earned by working hard and spending it wisely. Life in itself is not measured with the amount of money that you have, but rather of the things that you have done or would be doing for the betterment of one's self and others. One thing for sure though, money is the root of all evil as it creates monsters out of those who are not contended of what they have and it drives them to be more greedy and insensitive. I think if at all possible, i would go for life without money as it would be creating a genuine perspective of what you want out of life...

good to see that kind of realizations.. hope it could help not just for us here but also to all other people out there. what's more important is we lived with full of faith, hardworkings and especially being true to what we are doing.

Money makes the world goes around and that's how the world is. But I have no respect to someone who dedicates solely his life for money. Money will come after your contribution. So it should be the contribution first not the money first.

I sometimes think that we would all be better off if money ceased to exist! I'm just wondering how everyone got along centuries ago when there was no money! I'm thinking that they probably dealt in the exchange of goods and so forth. I think we should return to this system. Then, we could just exchange goods! If was wanted something that someone else had, perhaps we could borrow that item for a while and by the same token give them something of ours, perhaps of equal value. I'm sure that this would rid the world of the current financial problems that we have. Considering that we live in today's modern age though I sometimes wish I had more money in my life as I'm doing without a lot of things but I am obviously already grateful for what I do have in my life.

Money is the link with life. Days were there when this was not given that importance -but character had the top place in a human beings life. As days changed and we getting modernized and also people earning in two or three ways many have crossed the financial burdens. and it became now so important that you are being recognized in the society only if you have money. The word character has lost its importance.No one recognizes you if you are sincere and possess a good character and loving nature. If you money many people love you for no reason.

reality bites. indeed money is essential for us to live decently in this world. the world has evolved to such a place that everywhere else you go there involves money. for you to satisfy your hunger, you need money to buy food. with respect to the human's basic needs such as food, shelter and clothing, money truly is crucial. but in the end, money could not satisfy a person's hunger for happiness.

Well life without money, i think that would be really hard. But then, people will start realizing that there a lot more things in this world that are more important than money. We will start appreciating the things like our relationships with our family, friends and with our religion.
