Money and Life

Garron over at Life's More Real had an insightful post about money and life that I wanted to share. The nickel version is that you should live life for life, not just for accumulating wealth. Of course, especially in our society, there are certain benefits accorded to those that rake in the cash, but in the end when all the cards are on the table, stories, love, and relationships are more important.

An excerpt ("the host" is a radio host who talks about wealth development):

Towards the end of a segment about markets and investment's the host said "Money isn't important," followed by a long pause. I waited for a commercial, or for him to continue, but he didn't. I wondered what was happening. Then he came back on, in a choked up voice. "Money doesn't matter," he said again.
