Money Doesn't Buy Everything, It has its Powers and Flaws

I was in a shuttle some days back and I heard a young lady say “money isn’t important, you do not need to be rich because all rich people are miserable”. Well, a few people agreed to the school of thought while some disagreed bluntly. You want to know the side I stand, then let’s do this post and at the end, you will know where I stand.

Let me say this quickly that money is useless either as Fiat, Cryptocurrency or any other form if it is not being used. It makes no difference if you have 1 billion dollars in your account and you do not know its function. Money is valuable only when it is used, it is a tool, and a resource to get things that can be purchased with it. Money is needed to run economic activities which often are personal needs or other needs.

The truth is this, money isn’t everything but money is very important in live, even a broke person will tell you that money is important. There are a lot of things that matter in live such as physical fitness, mental or psychological fitness, Purpose, and financial fitness. Money will not buy other things that is needed to live life but it will surely buy things needed to keep good. Money will not buy health, neither will it buy happiness, it can only make you get easy access to things that needs on the same note, when someone lose money, it can immediately buy sadness. Money is a tool and when seen as such, there will be less hopes around it.

Finance has been what a lot of people clamor for, and while chasing finance, a lot of things are lost from health, purpose, relationship and so on. The ability to detach finance from other necessities of live is what make living better and wealth worth its value.

This is very timely, I keep telling people that money in itself is not a bad thing but loosing your essence of existence or allowing greed take over you completely all in the name of trying to get rich is a very terrible thing.

True, its something that should not be pursued excessively but something that you can't do without, unfortunately.

Truly money is vanity in the sense that "we will all leave this Earth one day and all what we aquire won't go with us". yet without money life seems miserable. Money is just necessity.

Man will always covet money, it is in his nature, you must have a lot of will and consciousness to understand that money should not manipulate us is just a tool that helps us with our goals, with it we can achieve many things but if we lose sight of what is really important can become vain people.

That's true. Money is not everything and that's what we failed to understand most times in this world

Very good reflection on elnmajeno delndinero and its mechanisms of use, the thing we can achieve without letting be who we are as people.
