There are at least 3 core priorities we wish to achieve in life: Comfort, Security and Wealth. Depending on your priorities is your way how you live your life and will determine whether you get them or not.
My priority is 1. Wealth 2. Comfort 3. Security.
First is wealth because I want to be rich. I plan to be rich and I will be rich. What I mean to say is that I am living my life today to reach my first priority goal which is to become rich.
Second is comfort. Before I reach a great amount of wealth, I have to go out of my comfort zone. But when I reach that goal of richness, I plan to get comfort afterwards. Meaning, I plan to use the money I've got to buy myself comfort.
Third is security. I know that nothing is secure at first if the foundation of one's wealth is not very good. I also know that there is no comfort if I could not get the wealth that will buy me comfort. Security comes after the two because it would mean that I've got enough knowledge to bring me security. As long as I know how make advantageous and disadvantageous situations turn to my advantage, I know I will be secured.
How about you MyLot users, how do you order your core priorities?
Wealth, Security and Comfort. Which is your number 1, number 2 and number 3?

You really think so? I think wealth should start first because in my opinion, in the real world, it's wealth that gives you security, not work. So when you're secure, you get comfort.

If you had told me this last year, mantis36, I would have agreed with you.
Unfortunately, right now, I can only shake my head in advises such as "work hard and become rich" or "go to school, get good grades, and get a good and secure job" or "This/that man got rich because of illegal acts".
Last time I've checked, I don't trust any politicians to solve each Filipino's problems. So for me, it's up to me to get my core priorities straight and fix my own problems...and so far I've learned, I can become wealthy even by not working hard but by working smart...if you know what I mean. As the rich men said, "Financial literacy is your road to wealth."

My number 1 is: freedom.
Freedom in every way as much as possible.
I payed high prices for that already as a kid so I will never give up on that.
My number 2 is: peace
I want to live in peace, my way, without fights, without never ending discussions, without wars or holy wars or agression.
My numer 3 is: my health.. or perhaps this is my number 1 or 2.
Without a normal (I am not even asking for a good health) it's hard to fight for freedom or peace.
There are no other goals in my life. I am still at the surving base.
