This is something I've thought about myself before when wondering (as most of us do) what it would be like to win the lottery.
At first it seems like such a good idea with no financial worries and the ability to pay for anything we wanted. But, then I start to think about how your family and friends would feel once they saw you quit your job whilst they still have to go and would that affect your'e relationships I start to wonder how much money would be too much to have?
It could eventually drive a wedge between you because of the difference in lifestyles. Then you think about who would you give money to and how much. Would you give people enough to pay off their mortgage but have to continue to work? I don't know if I could do that. And then you see on the local news about a factory closing with the loss of 50 jobs and you know that an investment of half a million could keep tham afloat for a while longer and hopefully help them survive permanently. Could you sit and act like it's nothing to do with you when it could be a really small amount for you to donate out of your millions?
Eventually I always come to the conclusion that it would probably bring me nothing but trouble and maybe a modest win to help finance my life without problems the way it is now would be nice but I wouldn't want any more than that.

Money has the value others assign an impose on you. One's goal should be to get as close to putting themselves on the otherside of any possible money problems, and that doesn't mean getting filthy rich, just that you have enough to cover expenses and enough to play with. That way you can go to Maui AND afford the parsailing, lua, and decent hotel on Ka'anapoli Beach.... (sigh!)

incredibly funds now no longer gets it is fee from invaluable metals including gold. despite if it was once (citadel Knox). funds is now valued in straightforward terms on people's concept interior the forex it self. despite if granted, it is style of extra complicated, maximum valuations of money come from the fee and ability that a united states's financial gadget is turning out to be and its power regarding different international locations. it is that, if a undeniable united states (say the U.S.) produce extra in step with capita than yet another united states, and the expenses of interest, inflation expenses and different variables are an identical, its forex will possibly be well worth extra in step with unit. If we've been nonetheless on the optimal, the forex marketplace could no longer exist (forex determining to purchase and advertising - its basically like the inventory marketplace yet you purchase and sell funds for a income)

Money itself has little or no value but it's what money can get you that's the real value.
