Money

We talk a lot about money: How to get it, how to spend it, where to spend it, and how to save it. For all the time we devote to talking about, worrying about, and dealing with money, you’d think it was the most important thing in the world. If the time spent obsessing about money truly equated to its worth, then there would be nothing that you couldn’t do or have without money. Money would be the only thing that mattered. But is money really as valuable as our obsession level leads us to believe?

Money is important, obviously. Without it we’d have no roof over our heads, food in our bellies or clothes on our backs. Money allows us to do and have more things than we can without it. It’s a means to an end. But, for all that money is useful and good to have around, for all that it can buy, there are quite a few things that it can’t buy. Even if you have millions of dollars, there are some things that you’ll never have with money alone. So what can’t money buy? Read on.

It can buy a House But not a Home

Houses of bamboo walls whose residents love each other a lot more fun than the marble-walled homes with residents who claw-scratching.

It can buy a Bed But not Sleep

In America there is a hotel that promotes the most comfortable bed in the world. Any guests staying there were asked to choose their own pillows are available either size, thickness and number. After choosing the best pillow that can make them sleep soundly, they may even buy the hotel bed complete with pillows, bolsters and blankets! Apparently the hotel was sold. Why? These days many people who can not sleep soundly. That is why I agree with the phrase, "The best pillow in the world is a clear conscience!" Cancel the most good (soft) in the world is a pure conscience.

It can buy you a Book But not Knowledge

At home the rich, respected and community leaders. In the living room is large and beautiful, I often see a glass case containing the encyclopedia, even more than one version. When visiting the home of a friend who is close enough to me, I tried to take an encyclopedia out of place. Apparently there is dirt on it. What does it mean? Thick book that is never touched, let alone read! Not surprisingly, even though his house full of books, not necessarily the owners have extensive knowledge.

It can buy you a Position But not Respect

With money you can buy a position, but whether the people who know you so will respect you.

 

It can buy you Medicine But not Health

There was a mother who grew up in Hong Kong. When she conceived the child, because they want themselves and their children healthy, she drinks a lot of drugs that are expensive. As a result fatal, his son was born with a normal body but the mental disability. I also once knew a young businessman who, when his father ill buy expensive medicines from France, but after all his father's life can not be saved. The drugs are necessary, but how well, we still can not buy health itself.

It can buy you Blood But not Life

Our Life On Gods Hand

It can buy you Sex But not Love

Practice of prostitution is as old as human civilization. That is why in every major city around the world, even in countries that seem very spiritual, we can find complex prostitution. Sex can be bought easily, however, whether we can buy love? When interviewed by a magazine, a prostitute said, "Although I have sex with many men, I never want to be kissed. My lips can only be touched by people I love, namely the man who would become my husband. Not adventurous love

A Ticket to Anywhere in the World but not to Heaven

It Can Buy Smile But Not Happiness

It’s a cliche that money can’t buy happiness, but it’s also true. It can buy you some fun and fleeting joy—a cool vacation, a big TV, a fast car—but it can’t buy the true happiness that comes from liking yourself, having stable relationships, and good a familial support system. 

Succeed   

Some people succeed by being slimy and paying / bribing Their Way to the top. But these are the exception and I would hope you wouldn't aspire to that. Success comes from hard work, applying your gifts in the best way possible, and paying your dues to move ahead in the world. That 'there is very little money you buy cans to help you succeed. It Might be Able to Buy you Some training or equipment, but the majority of your success is determined by the work you put in, not the money you Spend.

Acceptance

True, you can buy things that make you fit in—the latest cars, clothes, shoes, or electronics—but these things don’t represent true acceptance. If you really want to be accepted by your peers (beyond high school where a pair of shoes really does make you part of the in crowd), you’d do better to focus your energies on making yourself valuable to those around you. Being a good friend, a kind and helpful person, and someone who excels at what they do will go further to gain you acceptance than the stuff money can buy.

Happy, well adjusted kids

Money can buy your kids a lot of clothes, toys and gizmos, but it can’t turn them into secure, responsible, well-mannered, intelligent people. That only comes from the time you spend with them and the things you teach them. Money might be able to help with some aspects of parenting but it’s been proven many times that kids, once their basic needs are met, benefit more from parents spending time with them than the amount of money spent on them.

Talent    

People are born with certain talents. Money can certainly nurture a talent. You can buy music lessons or coaching sessions to nurture your talents, but money cannot buy a talent. You can learn to do certain things well—I’ve learned to play the piano after years of lessons—but the true gift to do it well can’t be bought. Even after years of lessons, I don’t have the ability to make the piano truly sing, whereas others in my family have had that talent from birth.

Peace

If money could buy peace, I think we’d be there by now. Think of the amount of money that governments have spent over the years in the name of “peace.” Has it worked? Nope. Peace isn’t something you buy. I think peace only comes from acting fairly, humanely, and treating others (people and countries) as we would want to be treated. And even then, it might not be possible. But for sure money won’t buy it.

I’m not suggesting that you give up the pursuit of money and go on some monastic quest for deeper meaning. It is important to manage your money well, to educate yourself about money, and earn enough to secure your financial future. However, it pays to stop and think every now and then about the things you would still have even if you didn’t have money. Your family, your health, and your gifts and abilities aren’t determined by how much money you have. There are things that no amount of money can buy and it’s worthwhile to pursue them even as you worry about money. Money is important, but maybe it’s not the most important thing in the world.

Money is nice to have but it can't buy you the things that truly matter to make your life a happy life. Money you can lose and make again but there are things that if you lose them cannot be replaced. Money can't buy you a life

you can't be happy by just having money alone.

It often causes pain and suffering
