i think that money is what's needed to live life properly and fully. security is what life is about in my opinion, meaning that one needs to be able to sustain themselves until they are no longer able. money is needed for rent/mortgage to keep a roof over one's head and the electricity turned on and food in their bellies and for transportation to and from places. money is needed when one is sick to get better. money is everything. it is my opinion that if you don't have money, and you don't have any friends or family to take you in, you basically become a street walker and reduce your life-span considerably.
