For me Yes I want to be rich..... I want to be rich not for only for my personal intention but I want also to help other people who needs to be help not only financial but also in spiritually and emotionally. Now a days I found out that many street children that needs foods,shelter, and sometimes they wish they can study and finish a degree in future. Thats why i really want to be rich so that i can help them.But I know I can also help them not only financially but emotionally and spiritually....Tell me do you want to become rich someday???and tell me your own reason why????

That's a nice motive if you are rich. in what ways can you help them? For me, I don't want to be rich at all. Because first, when you have lots of money, you'll have the problem of keeping it, where to spend it, etc. Second, bad people might kidnap me. (shallow, isn't it?)Third, if we are rich, and my husband is rich, there is a tendency he'll cheat on me just because he has money to spend on younger girls.LOL! Well, seriously, i don't want to become rich, just have enough money to sustain my family and our daily need, and some extra for special occasions. I'll help the poor families in any way I can like introducing them to livelihood programs, not just give them money. Also, I'll vote for a good president who will solve the poverty problem in our country. Just a small deed like voting could make a difference.

It would be nice, but in the long run, I don't believe that wealth is for me at all. When I do have sums of money, once my basic needs are met, I usually end up spending the money on others in one form or another. I'm perfectly happy with my basic needs being met, having my crappy phone service and my crappy internet and having to pay a friend to act as taxi service because I can't afford a car. It keeps things in perspective, and keeps me humble. Money and material things, they can all disappear in a moment's time. I have a great dislike of excess.

Of course I want to become rich! We are like the same! I also want to help the street children and donate to many charities. My wealth will not only be for myself. I actually want to adopt a chld from Africa.

Yes, of course, I want to get rich but not so rich that I become the target of kidnappers... I just want to be financially okay, okay means, I can buy food for my family, buy their needs and send them to better school. If you came from a family who find it hard to get the means meet, maybe, you will still wish for more.

Who doesn't? I'd always say that if I won the lottery I'd invest in several real estate and profitable businesses, go on a shopping spree with my loved ones, and donate to charity. But, the thing is I don't even gamble much less spend money on a lottery ticket. LOL

I think all people want to be rich that is why there are some that want to be rich quickly. I want to be rich but I need to be patient and wish that there is a time for that for me to be rich. I want a decent kind of being rich so that it will make me happy anywhere I go...

I admire your reasons for becoming rich, I just hope you won't change when you become one. There are some people I know who's quite humble and often told me that if they become successful on their chosen career and have plenty of money they will do such thing as helping the poor and in need. And now they're on top but they change a lot and they can't even recognize those people who help them to be on that position and never they help those in need. I actually didn't dream on becoming rich, I just wish each day, I've the heart to share my blessings to other and never get tired to help those who are in need. Even with the little things I have, I still can help them, not just financially, but also emotional and spiritual aspects.

YEs, of course I want to be rich....I want a lot of money, so I can travel around the world, I can send my daughters for further education in future, and for this moment at least I can bring them to Tokyo Disneyland, which they dream of. I can pay all my debt, even can donate some of the money to Haiti. I also can give some to my relatives that's in financial's problems.So do you have any legal way to be rich? If yes please tell me. Happy Mylotting!!!

Yes I would love to become rich. I think becomong rich would open up so many more doors to help other people. When someone is rich they don't have to say I would love to help if only I could they have the means to do so.

Yes, I want to be rich (the sooner the better). I want to live in a nice flat with a husband and kids and have enough money to buy ourselves food, clothes and sometimes things that we wish for. I also want to be able to travel and see the world without feeling guilty or afraid of something that can happen in the future and I don't have the money for. I'm not talking about millions of dollars here, but to have a nice paycheck with some money to put into another bank account every month so I can spend it for what I love doing and not for the bills.

Hello kyvin :) I think this is a most obvious question. I think everyone wants to be rich. But if given the chance, I want to be rich in two ways: 1. I want to be rich enough to satisfy me and my family's needs. 2. I want to be so rich that I can be able to help people especially financially. Money signifies power and influence. And if I'd be given material blessings I'd like to use it to be able to help others. I would not want to store them all in my house anyway.. Probably I will always be worried about my life if ever I get rich. Money doesn't mean security at all so it's not really all about money. When I have money I want to give it all away and also have enough in me. :)

It would be nice to not have to worry about money, and be able to invest in all the projects that I´d like to. But on the other hand, I´m really quite happy with what I have day to day. With money comes responsibility to use it wisely.

Hi kyvin147! Of course I want to be rich! I know money can't buy everything but at least it could help those who needs it. If I would be rich someday, I would really want to help the abandoned old people. They need our care. I just hope when every one of us gets rich, we won't forget the original purpose why we wanted to be rich. Happy mylotting!

I think that all the people in the world want to be rich. I do want to be rich because there are so many things I want to buy and experience. If I get rich I will help the poor people in the street that I pass by, I will also donate to the church to help them in their missions.
