It is really frustrating to know that most of the things in this life is built upon money.You can say that love is all we need to be happy.But we should have the money to support the ones who would show their love to us in the way we expect.Because everyone has so much things to dream,enjoy and attain in life.If I need to have fun with my family or friends,I need money to travel to that place,to stay there,to eat and to have all recreational activities there.If I need to be proud of myself as a high esteemed person in my profession,I need money to get the things to study,certification or degree to allow me to move further and the facilities to get me to a top honorable place.If not honor and fun all day,I want to just be in peace and relax,I need money to be in my place and perhaps put some music,which I need money to get an instrument.Even before entering some ashrams or some place like that,we have to surrender our property to get ourselves enrolled there.Without money,I can't imagine if there is anything I can do as every single thing is built upon it.I am so frustrated.

I totally agree to your point. yes nowadays money has become the base of every thing to be done. Nowadays one cannot imagine things without money. This has also made people calculative in their approach. Money has surely changed people's minds at large.

Of course it has changed the life of people.Even my relatives who were so attached to my family when they were young,became calculative and always craving for money and in the end they ended up losing all the love and affection.Though they have loads of money and are happily settled,they don't have the time to use that money to enjoy with the family.Money is the heart of life,but it should not cover the entire heart.That is also not complete happiness.

Money Money Money we all need it for everything. For good cause bad cause and what not. I don't think that its a reason to be frustrated we just have to work hard and achieve what we want. without hard work Money won't come

The best things to have in life are happiness, good health and good lucky. It is better to have dreams in life than have everything you need. Then there room for more stuff and further progress in the future. The future is a mystery so having a enough money to live on is fine. It if fun to update a room on a budget or travel in economy class on a plane. A person needs a home to live in which will fit his or her family. I don't think money makes a person happy but having too little of it can make a person miserable. I like going for a coastal or countryside walk. These are free. I love traveling to different countries and these cost money.

In my opinion money is just a symbol of what you work hard for in your life to attain the luxuries and pleasures in life. If you dont work hard then you should'nt expect for a better life! You are rewarded with the things that you work hard for, and you really do reap what you sow. Just dont think of money as being the sole thing that makes your world go round, but make sure that money is only one of the things that is part of your life! Luxuries and Pleasures doesnt necessarily mean happiness. Sometimes pleasure even brings with it pain! but to attain the things you want, then you really need to work hard for it and money is one of the things that symbolize hardwork and perseverance in life! (if earned legally ofcourse)

I agree with you. It is frustrating knowing that we need money in order to take care of what we need. And I know for me personally I have felt like I had enough money in savings, then something happens and it causes us to be behind again. That has just happened to us recently. I had our car worked on because it really needed it, We had just bought tickets for an event for a weekend trip we had planned. After we bought the tickets our landlord called and said that he would be moving back to the area in two weeks and would need the house. Now we are again at square one with needing to make more money to pay for our move. It seems like a never ending cycle of needing MORE money.
