For me, short-term = No way.
Long-term == Yes, since I will eventually be needing much more than I have now.

Is money one of the three most important things in your life?

Its family, health and money

the thing is that all other things like fun, happiness, recognition, comes from them. And as with all things there are diminishing returns for example if I got 100000 btc and not die from happiness then another 50000 btc would not have another 1/2 impact on happiness compared to when you received a huge amount for the first time.. Tongue

anyway back to reallity I would shit my pants of happiness if I got like 50 btc Tongue

...or 5

For me money is not everything,
but everything needs money.

Yup. Every thought requires energy, and putting every thought in progress requires money. Money is energy, because it makes things happen in real life. It is what it is.

This question needs a bit of dissection to make sense of it.

a: Do you want to create resources?

b: Do you want to consume resources? If so, do you want to create the resources you use?

c: Do you want to have resources in reserve? If so, do you prefer to have them in usable assets like a house or a car, in financial assets, in stocks, or in money?

d: Is it important to show that you are in the position to consume? Is it important to have the right to own those resourses in advance, or are you just happy to spend borrowed money with no intention to pay, or set the lenders at risk?

e: Are you a risk seeker, playing horses or lotteries, spending the money if you win, else living like a loser?

f: Or do you just not care for your own life, consequently seeking death, not life?

When the question is asked, it is often just to denigrate the opponent for supposedly bad choices. As you can see, the question can always be spun in a way so the responder looks like a fool. It is a method for ruling over the respondent. Irritating, really.

Money is the most important thing, up to a point (enough so that you have a roof over your head, clothes so you won't freeze to death and food so that you won't starve to death).

Money is still very important when you have the above, but are at risk of not having enough if you lose your job or something.

When you don't have to worry about food/shelter/clothes, at that point money is still nice to have, but no longer that important.

Hello,

Well, I can say money is very important to me. I think that is not so weird, because let's be honest.
Without money, none of us can survive in this cruel capitalism world.

Of course, there are many other things I am looking for in life, but money is one of the most important for sure.

Other two things are health and happiness.

Is money one of the three most important things in your life?

I'd say it is one of the three most important things, but it's not the first but it is very vital to living comfortably.

Quote from: azguard on March 10, 2015, 04:48:55 AM

yes and now.

Believe that health is first thing and happiness ass second.
Money comes later on.

Example you cant buy cure for cancer.
So basically health is prime.

Sometimes you might. If you can't afford cancer treatment then that money would come in handy.

For happiness if you dont have someone to share then you wont be needing any money.
Example is family wife and kids.

Yes it is, but most people will say that since we are in a place, where people come to talk about money. It can give you almost anything you can think about, beginning with the basics like food and shelter and ending with a sense of security and accomplishment. Who wouldn't want that?
3 things you need in life are: health, love and money.

no. i live in a cave and need to crank on my device to get my bitcoin wallet to load.

if you had a farm and weapons with a large family/group actually you could probably live and have a good life without money. Cave is stretching it. Grin

A farm is good nice healthy living and if you have a spring near by or a well you have very little need for money, but i am not lucky enough to have that privilege and i am trapped in the system but would much rather live in a cave with wolves or a farm and live from the land.. Even a shack in the woods> the newbies love shack

To answer your question i dislike money and it is nowhere near the most important thing in my life but i have no way to live without it because like i said i am trapped in the system as we all are so we are made to worship it and that is worth crying over Cry

Wrong money does not reassure everyone just us who have been raised to worship money there are plenty of happy people around the world who live self sufficient happy lives without the need of paper.

Again you have it wrong just because you have money does not give you better chances it reduces your chances because you become dependent on something that has been created to control you.

We have indeed been bound by money and that is what is destroying us.

Is it that "we have been raised to worship money" or that we've been raised in a society that requires money to function?

If 20 of us lived on a private island somewhere money would be meaningless. But you can't very far in London or Paris or Shanghai without it.

Your logic is akin to saying we worship roads because we're forced to drive on them. Just because we use roads every day to get to where we need to go doesn't mean that we worship them.

I believe the question is more fundamental. Its like; would you rather live a fulfilled life with your family, living from paycheck to paycheck,
or have a stressful life without a family of your own, but with a lot of financial freedom?
In the end it all comes down to whats your preference, i would personally always choose family love and health over money, but still we cant live without it, so its reasonable to sacrifice part of time working to ensure those who you love have what they need to live a normal life.

cheers

This. We are indeed bound with money. Admit it: you can't live without it. Even if you live in a private island with everything you need, still you are bound to go to the mainland once in every x weeks to get supplies, and the supplies you need requires money to acquire. So...

For me, money is not everything but without it there's also no point in life after all. Yeah it can't guarantee 100 percent happiness but least in today's rising cost of living where everything is measured how much money you own, it still makes a whole lot of difference. Those who were saying it's not important probably don't realize what they are taking about in the first place.
