Everything = Life + Family + Friends
The components that make up my "everything" requires me to have money - loads of it.
Life - My everyday life requires me to travel (ie: transport money), communicate (ie: handphone bills), eat and drink (ie: daily expenditure), clothing (ie: shopping) , be responsible for other commitments (ie: monthly contrinutions to the family household etc). All these need money, right?
Family - The amount I give to my parents every month may not be enough to repay all that they went through to raise. Nonetheless, I personally believe that it is a form of responsibilithy for children to set aside a sum of money for their parents. On a different note, I think that it is the immense love and a great sense of togetherness that can drive a family member to utter hurtful words unintentionally. Words that can discrimnate the decreasing perks and increasing headaches of a much lower income - in an attempt to floow one's drams. That's pressure. Pressure to earn more so that the family will not have to worry about you not having enough cash to buy clothes, go out etc.
Friends - To be entertained, you need money. When your surroundings consists of too many concrete and fewer greenery, all the more reasons one needs loads of money to "hang out". So to "chill out" isn't free. "Chillin'" needs money.
Now, is it wrong for me to say that money is everything?
