“Real wealth is not so much what we have as what we are.”

-Sterling W. Sill-

Reflection:

                One may consider having money very important and may consider it as wealthy too. Money can’t buy everything. Most people who have wealth are greedy and believe they can have anything they want, but can they really? Maybe they have friends but are they loyal? Is the person they’re with loyal/faithful? Money can’t buy love. Money can get to someone’s head and mess them up. People who have little to no wealth know what it’s like to live without money but with love. I understand love can’t buy anything but people who don’t have wealth know how to thank for the money they make, for their wealth. While the people who have wealth take advantage of the money they have without really valuing what’s important. Family, friends, our loved ones are important, money does help but isn’t always there. People with wealth have a hard trouble making real friends because there might be many people after their wealth (fakes).  People who believe money can buy everything can’t take things for granted. Most wealthy people are stingy, mean, greedy, etc. people without wealth turn out to have better hearts and are more kind. For example there’s a saying, “where 2 people eat, 3 can eat.” This shows that people who barely have enough are willing to share with another as long as they all eat. Money doesn’t make us a better person, who we are, does.
