Is money everything? Everyone in our society may think that money is everything. But my answer to that question is: absolutely not! First of all, money can't bring us happiness. When we are poor, we all have dreams like when I have money someday, I will do something...but when the day comes, we only find that everything is not that valuable as we dreamed before. we are still unhappy. So I think real happiness depends more on the satisfaction of our heart than our wallet. Secondly, money can't bring us good health. when our body is in bad condition, even if we have enough money to buy everything, our body doesnot allow us to do...So the best way to keep our health in good condition is not money, but more exercises and a good living style. Thirdly, money can not bring us friendship. Life-long friendship needs our heart to maintain, but not money. So my conclusion to the topic is, although money is very important to our life, it is not everything!

Money is not everything. I think that health is everything in life. If we have good health, then we can enjoy our life with the money we have.

Hehe~ I agree with you. Health, that is the most important thing in our life and our parents's health, our friends's health.

It is not everything, but sad to admit it has become something like that to some people. Money can buy you happiness but the kind of happiness that expires, like for a few hours. As the saying goes, money is the root of all evil. I'm thinking, people before us, don't need money, right? But, what can I say it's a lost battle, there are only a few people who don't make money their God.

You are right~We live in a cruel society. I can't imagine how can I survive if there is no money. What i would like to express is a ideal society...maybe...

It is not everything,but money is very important.With out it there is no honey or friends.Money is how we can afford all of our wants and needs that makes us happy.I think money can make me happy but not buy me happiness. Happiness cant be purchased at a store or online, but I'd definitely be happy if I was out of debt.

Money is not every things. when most people thinks money is every thing the world will will be full of violence. A person who thinks money is every thing he feel he is loneliness on the Earth. There is a condition when people thinks money is every thing that is when he/she be discriminated on being little money or no money, when he/she loses excellent opportunity when not having enough money to grape that. The friends, relatives & society should help or lend money to those needy people. If he be depressed and ran after money. It will have bad impact on the society. We can see that how terrorism have feared the world, if we did not help those terrorism will use those for violence.
