I do not know who wrote this. This six principles rationalizes the folly of chaing wealth. Life is more than wealth-much-much more..

Let us look at the six principles of life as extolled by this mysterious writer.

6 PRINCIPLES OF LIFE

• No point using limited life to chase unlimited money
• No point earning so much money you cannot live to spend it.
• Money is not yours until you spend it.
• When you are young, you use your health to chase your wealth;when you are old, you use your wealth to buy back your health. Difference is that, it is too late.
• How happy a man is, is not how much he has but how little he needs.
• No point working so hard to provide for the people you have no time to spend with.

How wise! How true!

Do you subscribe to these 6 principles?

Hi
jonjee0203,

1.Unlimited money???......what needs of that as the life is limited. means like 0 divided by unlimited number. So it should be limited the needs. Needs of money itself come under your control.
2. If you gather money beyond the spending capacity then it is meaningless. What needs of that what you can't even spend.
3. The value of money is then when it spent. Money itself has no value. Money is valuated when you spend it. So in the treasury money is nothing but heap of trouble. So we need money to spend not to gather a stock.
4.Its completely meaning less we don't use our health in chasing money if we don't do that then to we grow old. But it is right that we take trouble to gather wealth so use in our old age. But cant completely buy our health with that. We just can manage the heath to some extent. If we can buy health with money then no rich will ever died.
5.That's the basic value and meaning of life. Try to know know you capability. According to that you should limit your needs. That the secrete of happiness of life. If you consider that happiness is in the achievement then it is wrong. Happiness is in the way to achievement not at when you reach the goal.
6. Actually the time factor has different definition. Some people says that he has enough time, some other says they have no time. But what is time? who has it or who has not???? Quite complicated about the concept of time.Actually we don't have time that can we spend. you spend or not it does not matter it automatically on its own way. we have manage ourseves with it.

Hi jonjee, all those quotes are absolutely real.:) U could have added, even if u earn for a few generations down the lane, it is likely that ur child will gamble or drink away all that u worked so hard for.:) That BTW is original. I am taking down the quotes anway. They are worth reading off and on so that we can get in touch with rality.:)

Money is for us to spend to stimulate the economy. Spend on food, holidays, health and invest on our children's future. When all these objectives are achieved then we are happy.So money equates happiness.

Nice one. I think it is all about having a balance life. It is unhealthy to always work in order to accumulate wealth. We should balance our life in order to stay healthy and happy.

I have come across these principles before. Everyone is still chasing and accumulating money to spend lavishly. Of course, we don't squander all we earn. We
save for the rainy days. We save for our future and for our children future too.

Hi JamesKYTan, earning is not objectionable. Earning is good, and it is fun. And it does have those spending and spurring the economy benefits as u pointed out. But there should be a healthy balance between earning, health, and family. That is what those quotations meant. If u cant spend time to be with ur kid, u wouldnt know whether he has bad friends, would u? And then he would be spending away all that u worked so hard for on those drugs, or casinos. So what would be the point in earning for more than 10 hours if this can happen? This is what I meant.


myLot reputation of 97/100. JamesKYTan (504)  3 weeks ago

Hi vanada, You are absolutely right. There must be a balance. In the universe there is also a balance also. There is no point accumulating wealth by leaving for work early in the morning before sunrise and coming home early in the morning before sun rise the next day. There is no family time. When you leave for work you children are still sleeping and when you come back home your children are still in bed.
