I have met and spoken to so many people in my short time on this world and i found that most people have primary objectives which they hope to achieve but i find one thing in common with many of the people i have met and that is the fact that all wants to have financial freedom . Mnay will dojust about anything to achieve this even if it means going illegitimate. My question however is for you what is actually your greatest priority in life is it money or is there more to your life?

My priority right now is money. I want to get a lot of money. By having a lot of money, I will be free from all pressures. I could give my parents money, pay my debts, and I can be free of control, people who had control of me.

Let me start this off this way. I think it is everyones dream to independently wealthy. But we all know that is not always how its going to be. My priority is basic and simple. I just want the best for my children and I just want to get through this life unharmed. Meaning I would like to get through it all a smooth as possible. I do not need to be rich to achieve this.

$$ is not what I need and priorities.. I don't mind keep working to maintain the lifestyle I have now but for my family is always the priority. I will sacrifice my work (chances to earn $$) for my family it is required.

My priority is the love, i could put anything else behind the love... I love have financial freedom but money is not all, not a key for happiness so that i still keep earning money and going on with my life.

My priority in life will always be family. Whatever happens in one's life, our family will always be there. I always deem it important to spend time with them, share amongst each other the love and care. I am blessed to have one great family, Thank GOD! All in all, family is a priority. Of course, never forget about GOD. He's the one behind all of us :)

Each of us has a priority in life especially for the success of our goals and dreams. If you were young, you already made your own priorities not because you are a teenager or adult but what ever age you are you need to have those in your life. For me, my own priorities in life is to be a good daughter, good student, good person for my school, my family and to my self. Another is to study harder to have a better grades and better job in the future. I really wanted to have good future so I would help my family. They were the ones who always give me the courage to continue on my journey to be successful. I cannot choose between money and the other things in life because i needed them both to live with my own dreams and goals.

of course we need to achieve the basic freedom, that is freedom from fear. others die without achieving this. for example, those people who live in extreme poverty and conflict areas. if we achieve this freedom, then we can pursue other ideals in life. financial freedom only has meaning if one has realized that there is higher calling in this life. otherwise, what will they do with that freedom if they spend it with the luxuries of life, and not pursuing the meaning of life if indeed there is.

Of course money is important but this should not be your priority in life. Most of my friends made this mistake and now they know they were not right but it is already too late. Family is the most important thing so do not prefer your career before the family. There are plenty of ways you may earn money but if you lose your youth doing it you will later regret.

I completely agree with you. So many people want to have and make a lot of money. It is necessary to have money to take care of the things we need to live. But it's not necessary for us to be rich. But so many people strive after that like you said going to great lengths to and making this there priority in life.

Before, it is more than money. But now that I'm all grown up, felt like I became a small child that concentrating only for having money. I have a dream, but I can only achieve it if I'm going to have a lot of money. For me money is just a step to the future that I want to have.
