Money $

I was reading this book on the 'Choice' we make in our lives. How these decisions we make affect our entire life. Whether for the better or worse! It can be scary to even think maybe our decisions are wrong ones and that our lives could be better if along the 'road travelled' we made other choices and followed another path. Would we still be here? Would I still be here? Where I am?



Then I was thinking about money. I don't think that money is the most important thing in life, I don't. But I do believe with money, many dreams can become a reality.



Even though money isn't the most important thing in life, it does affect the most important things in our lives. It affects our stress level, which affects our relationships. It affects the kind of car we can afford, which affects our safety. It affects where we live, which affects our family.



Like it or not, our freedom is a function of money. The main reason we work, sometimes even on weekends is because of money.

I read a newspaper story of a man in UK who won millions of pounds, but all he wants in this life is more time, not more money. Time to spend with his family as he is dying.

Like others, I have two thoughts on money! But I do like 'Graham Nash' quote: "Is the money you make worth the price that you pay?"
