Making money is very important. You need money to fulfill your basic needs and to enjoy a comfortable life. But if you focus your whole life on making money without giving enough time for your family and friends, you can never be happy. It is therefore essential to maintain a balance between these two to enjoy a happy and comfortable life. Read more…..

Money, money, money: Money plays a vital role in every one’s life. Without money you are nothing. This world is for the rich. Money can get you many comforts of life. It can give you status in society. Money can solve most of the problems in life. Yet there are still a few things that money can’t buy. Money can buy a comfortable bed, not sleep. It can get you delicious food but not appetite. Every living being strives to be happy always. So, if you really want to lead a happy life, you need to balance your time between making money and spending time with your dear ones.

Never be a servant to money, instead let money work for you:  Money should not be the main reason for living your life. Money can only fix temporary problems but in the long run only love can bring you real happiness. Some people are always after money. They spend the whole life in chasing after money. In the end they make money but lose happiness. It’s true that with money you can enjoy all the comforts of life such as living in a big house, travelling in a luxury car, using sophisticated gadgets and having huge bank balances. But if you have all these comforts and none to share your life with, can you be happy? Even if you have several millions you can eat only three times a day, is n’t it?

Are all rich people happy?: In my opinion all rich people are not happy. Only some rich people are living happily. They know the art of making money and spending time with their dear ones. You may be surprised if I tell you that there are so many middle class and lower class people living much happier than those so called rich people. They have  happy families and they seem to enjoy life more meaningfully than the rich.

Spending quality time with family: There are a few smart people who work hard and make big money. At the same time they spend quality time with family. They may not be able to spend quantity time but still they can live happily with their dear ones. They are the blessed people, I would say. It’s like a win win situation for them. But it is not possible for most people. That is why I think one should allot adequate time for the family.

    This is all so true. I would much rather spend time with my family and have my basic needs met than have a lot of wealth. A very good post.
