Can anyone run down to me, what is the measure of true wealth and riches? Is it the material things that money can buy?

Not really the material things although these are necessities in life. For me, contentment is the true wealth in life. Because even with so little, if you manage to find happiness in life then you will rich and fulfilled. Things like spending time with your child, fetching him/her from school, preparing dinner, etc.

Grace beta Money can never buy every thing, well it can buy a house, not a home, where you can live peacefully, it can buy a woman, whom one can enjoy, but never a wife to share your feeling, love and emotions.. True wealth is your good deeds, the good larma, which you will carry back with you, the material wealth one is bound to leave here .. Thank you so much for this nice discussion. Professor ‘Bhuwan’. . God bless you. Welcome always.

As me, the wealth of rich is we can help everyone when we want. Now, I'm not rich. I know there are many people need my helps but I can't. I only give them what I have. But they're not enough. I need more money. I want to be rich to help them.

True wealth and riches is Your Friendliness. If you want to 'count' something to show Your Friendliness, you can count the number of friends you have ... not necessarily 'the number of people who list you as a friend' (which--after you list a few hundred--starts dragging in people who 'don't know you from Adam'), but people who would name you if someone caught them on the street and asked them to list their friends. That's one reason why I'm Uncle Jay---memorable, yes?

Wealth encompasses all things and it includes money but is not all to true wealth.. True wealth is measured by your health, friendships, and over all well-being as well.. I would like to share my favorite quotes that i've read "It is the heart that makes a man rich..He is rich according to what he is, not according to what he has.. by: Henry Ward beecher.. Have a good day to you:)

true wealth is measured by intangible things. In other words, one is rich when one has given and shown love to his neighbors as evidenced by the number of true friends one has and the love shown back by other people to a certain person.
