MONEY

 

Money doesn't buy happiness but it helps.

Money has become one of the main things in our modern life. Some people live their lives to earn money. They work hard, trying to earn as much money as they can. Some of them become crazy about it and lose their dignity hunting money. They don't appreciate such important things as family, friendship, love and other feelings. Such people become greedy, they spend their lives in loneliness.

As W.S. Maugham said “Money is like the sixth feeling without which you cannot make a complete use of the other five.” A person can't be happy if he has no money to satisfy his natural needs. A person shouldn't have too much money. It begins destroying him and becomes his curse.

It is said in the Bible that “The love of money is the root of all evil.” Yes, big sums of money really bring different problems because people feel very envious and jealous of other's fortune. The majority of all the crimes are made because of money.

Humanity, dignity, intelligence, kindness and other good qualities of a person can't be bought for money. We'll never be able to buy pure love, real friendship and loving and caring family. But life isn't worth living without these things. It's not worth living if money has become the point of it either.

Second, the food can be too salty, overcooked and spoiled in any other way. It can be a serious problem for people with weak stomach.
