10 Things Money Can Buy :-

- Family and friends (seeing your money, someone can marry you and you can start a family. Your spouses friends will be your friends. So increase in family and friends)

- Home (Buy a 3 Storied House near the Niagara Falls. Your spouse will make sure that it becomes a home)

- Happiness (Sitting on the balcony of the above mentioned house with the above mentioned family, friends on a leather recliner...... Thats happiness right??)

- Peace (When you know that you have enough money that you dont need to work for the rest of life, you will get peace)

- Immortality (Pay Money, change whatever part of your body is not functioning)

- Respect (With all the above things, you will definately get respect. Ask TATAs, AMBANIs or BIRLAs)

- Talent (pay a huge sum to Hrithik Roshan. Ask him to teach you dance. He will eventually manage it, even if it takes him a decade)

- Health (Living with a peace of mind, eating right things will always result in excellent health)

- Love (No girl can say NO to a guy if he takes her to the outer space and proposes with a Kohinoor-Diamond Ring)

- Character (the money makes one confident which will result in building of character.)

Moreover, if everyone has enough money, it leads to nation building.

Entire generation of India has corrupted mind like Nupur's. Nupur's ideas and overwhelming response is a clear evidence that why we have such corrupt, criminal and impotent leadership and population.

Just to reply for Nupur
(1) Family and friends (seeing your money, someone can marry you and you can start a family. Your spouses friends will be your friends. So increase in family and friends).
--- Oh Friends... only if you have money are not real friends, and above all if they also want money they may harm you...(may be murder for money)
(2)Home (Buy a 3 Storied House near the Niagara Falls. Your spouse will make sure that it becomes a home)
--- If HOUSE collapsas due to natural calamity, spouse and friend will leave your so called HOME. but if they stay back even without money you have HOME
(3)Happiness (Sitting on the balcony of the above mentioned house with the above mentioned family, friends on a leather recliner...... Thats happiness right??)
--- If above two thing happens...surely it can't give you any happiness.
(4) Peace (When you know that you have enough money that you dont need to work for the rest of life, you will get peace)
---- When you know that you have friends like above mentioed then you can't have peace
(5)Immortality (Pay Money, change whatever part of your body is not functioning)
---- Body doesn't work by body parts, it works due to soul and I ams sure no amount in the world can get you soul.
(6)Respect (With all the above things, you will definately get respect. Ask TATAs, AMBANIs or BIRLAs)
--- Respect is earned by honesty and hard work not by money.(All Tatas and Birlas are respecetd due to their hard work and not due to money)

Nupur is right in every sense
if you have money and less knowledge one can start investing in learning and gain knowledge!
after gaining knowledge you are now superman!
concept is simple hire smart people who can work for you and return profits agar profit na mile 2 danda kar do unke it will be a fun
now money will grow automatically and you will have lots of time to find friends,enjoy with your family,you can play golf like larry allison(oracle founder),you can enjoy like paul allen(co founder of microsoft),you can do charity and receive lots of respect like warren buffet,bill gates,you can party as long as you want as your employees are working,you can go for long holidays with your family.
------------------------------------
but for middle class people who want to be rich have to suffer because they are doing everything on their own
->they are doing job and have fixed time,if they want to be rich and enjoy life they need to leverage(rich people enjoy because they have leverage)
->they cant take risk
->their financial knowledge is poor
->they always expect increment in salary(but when salary increases two factors TAX and INFLATION kill their gains)
note: increase your financial knowledge if you are from any category (poor,middle class,upper class)
use your knowledge to create leverage and enjoy you can achieve anything with money provided you have the knowledge
(start reading books on finance like rich dad poor dad )

Nobody said money is not needed. But alone can not be your ambition. Do u thing, all the people who have enough ( enough means how much? ..can you specify ?) have great friends, great family, health , peace..certainly not. The people who started chasing money often forget other things. At last when they feel they have enough monet, they would have lost everything. Hope you will agree !

Hi ...I agree with you cent percent.However money cannot buy three things
1)Your parents.( I meam u cannot select ur parents before birth !)
2)Your Guru ( a real guru cares a damn for ur money , he looks at kindness in yr eyes)
3)Preogress of your soul after your death.( After once death Ambanis/Tatas and a road side begger will be in same catagory , but the one who has HELPED others inspite of minimum resources at disposal will progress faster

Fine. Gone are the days to say Maney can't buy you everything. But still people don't tend to change as per the changing times. Atleast your thought process will tickle all the readers eventhough they do not agree. Good one

Well the article is true but generally rich people are happier than poor ones. fact for people to see
by ghatotkach on Aug 07, 2008 01:30 PM  Permalink 

yes but do poor people hv peace of mind.. its a cliched argument that a gaon ka kisan who has nothing has sound sleep than a businessman who is crorepati.. the only irony is that the businessman would never like to swap his position with kisan but the kisan definitely would. tells u all the story.

I will not mind swapping money for happiness.
A certain minimum amount of money is required but one must know when need turns to greed.
