The most important for me is health because if you have lots of money and do not put it into use for your health then probably you will die early.I still believe that our health is also our wealth.And we should try to keep our bodies fit and healthy and ensure our protection.

Wealth is useless when you are in hospital beds for most of your time. It is better to be a simple individual in a simple life with healthy foods that somewhat with wealthy family who just ignore the healthy foods because they can afford to buy one that suits thier lifestyle. I can say I'm not perfectly fit but I do so much tending to be healthy rather than to be wealthy.

Wealth without health becomes a burden. If we have health, we can pursue our life vigorously. When we have balance in life we can enjoy both - siva

Wealth is nice it allows you to live more comfortably but without good health it's not worth it.

@enlightenedpsych2 Oh your family is in Upstate NY, I am stuck in the City area. Born and raised here and need to get out of here soon, way too expensive to live in NYC now. Horribly expensive.

I suppose this is what we would call a chicken and an egg question, where we cannot not not have both for if we have health but not enough wealth to maintain it or the other way round. It is imperative that we should have health so that we could be have the strength to earn our wealth continuously to maintain our wellness.

Both are important but without health your money is wasted.

I think they are somewhat related, to be honest-one's emotional wellbeing, emotional health, is somewhat dependent on security-as well, with lack of monetary resources it can be difficult to maintain things needed for proper health. In some sense, it may not be an either or question-that said, if one was talking about health as a given, independent of financial resources, and opposed to financial resources, that is to say would it be better to be poor and healthy or rich and sick? I would have to agree with you, health would be far better.

Actually both is equally important to me. This is so because if you have health but don't have wealth you may not fully enjoy your health.Since you may not be able to maintain it or may not be able to do what you want to do.Most of the time we need money to do something like transportation. But even if you have wealth but don't have good health then you can't enjoy your wealth either as you will always be sick.

Health before wealth. You can gain wealth if you are healthy. all the money in the world is no good if you are too unhealthy to enjoy it. Even the wealthy die young, so it is best to stay healthy!

for me health is much more important than wealth but why should we sacrifice wealth when you can balance both of them.

I think if we have health then we also have wealth as health is wealth.
