WHY IS MONEY<br />

IMPORTANT?<br />

We have often heard the phrase “<strong>money</strong> doesn’t<br />

make you happy”, and as pious as that may sound,<br />

it really has no place in this modern world where<br />

everything revolves around <strong>money</strong>. Money may<br />

not make some people happy but poverty doesn’t<br />

make anybody happy either. I have never seen a<br />

beggar who lives under a bridge refuse <strong>money</strong><br />

from a passerby. A poor person has not chosen a<br />

life of poverty and destitution, they’re in that<br />

position by circumstance and they’re certainly not<br />

happy about that situation either.<br />

People are not homeless by choice but by<br />

circumstance, and those circumstances eventually<br />

evolved into a financial crisis in their lives which<br />

then led to their homelessness. Money is<br />

extremely important in this world and desiring to<br />

make as much of it as possible does not make you<br />

bad or evil. We really need to break this mentality<br />

which says that it is morally wrong to want to be<br />

rich, especially when your plan is to use those<br />

riches to secure your future and those of your<br />

children and grand children.<br />
