Why not just enjoy life and forget about chasing after money?

Hey friends, this is just a thought, suppose we all just decided to focus more on being good friends to each other and forget about money as all of us know that money can't buy us happiness. So tell me what your true feelings are on this thought. I am waiting to hear from you............. Have a nice day!

Hey there! For me, money and happiness comes hand in hand. It is somewhat hard accept it but that's my reality. One can't buy security for their family without money, health bills and insurance require money, and so on. That's just my opinion. Thanks!

Hello friend, thanks for your response. We can try to buy security for our family but still wind up not getting what we paid for. In fact our own health may be at risk by the time we get finished trying to pay for lots and lots of things for everyone. There is one thing that i'm sure of. People must learn how to rule money, versus allowing money to rule us. It's all in the way we think about it, my friend. I like rainy days, do you?

hi friend, I am happy and contended with what I have. Yes some extra bucks would make things a little different but not fretting for not having that access. and I have never chased after or hanker after money . If I had that greed I could have been different job where money flows down to your floor. No regret, no lament no crying. I am happy.

Hello friends, I think that is the best thing to do, just enjoy mylot, or any other enjoyments that we can get out of this life. I'm not fretting because I don't have the big bucks yet. Just having nice kind friends here at mylot is enough for me. All in due time if it's meant for us to have the big bucks we will have them. But it's not worth worrying over........... Take care friends.

Hey, Well for me, I for some reason would enjoy life if I had the money. Because instead of working the whole day, I would go and explore new places using that money, it would be much more relaxing. What a life that would be! Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

Hi, In fact, i consider it just as a thought or a dream. Although i hope i can enjoy life, i have to make money for survival. Now i have to pay my month house loan and support my life and family. I do hope or chase after enjoyable life, so I enjoying playing several kinds of sports , and make friends, and do something like that. For example, do mylotting. Happy mylotting!

Yes, I can understand if you want to try to make a better life for yourself and your family my friend. But that's not really what I'm talking about. Mostly I'm speaking about how there are so many people these days that don't even have time to sit down and have a decent conversation with a friend because they are too busy chasing after money. I hope you can see my point. Have a nice day friend, take care! Happy mylot!

I think about it most of the time, but when ever reality sets in, that's the time that i just can't seem to let go and stop chasing money..it's hard, but i had to do it.my feeling is on a struggle, i guess the old generation was happy about their lifetimes...where money wasn't really the thing

Dear It is true. We never try to become good friend as well as never understand each other. Only our intention to earn some cents or dollars. We can enjoy our life in my lot. ......................have a nice day.

thank you my dear for seeing my point. There are many people here at mylot that I would like to become close friends with. But if they are only interested in passing me their link. It becomes a waste of time to think that I could ever have a true friendship with those persons. I'm sure that I'm not the only one that feels like this. I think it's kind of bizarre that we might call someone our mylot friend but we don't even know the simpliest things about the person. Like I don't know your age or your birthday nor any of the smallest details about you. I think it's really sad that we don't really take the time to get to know a person in this world. But how quickly we are to call someone our friend, to jump up and actually sleep with the person without even knowing who else they've been sleeping with. I'm not saying this is how I operate, I'm just trying to bring these simple facts to light. thanks for responding.
