whats better? money or good manners?

Question

well im doing a school report and i need the general publics idea. what is better a lot of money or good manners.

Answer 1

Look at Paris Hilton. Lots of money, no manners. She doesn't seem very happy does she?

ick...

Answer 2

A well-mannered person makes more of a lasting impression than money which only gives short term happiness.

Answer 3

Money comes and goes. Good manners are something will last a life time.

Answer 4

That is a really interesting question. Manners are very important in my opinion, but money affords you a better life in terms of material things (nice home, car, money in the bank, etc.) So I guess money, to me, is better since I could afford to hire someone to teach me manners (LOL)!!!

Answer 5

Good manners will get you where you need to go.

I find that people with money have few manners. But my bf is quite charming and has gotten what we need when we are out by being assertive and gracious!

Answer 6

For me, money is FAR more important. Just think of all the GOOD you can do with money! Help out family members who are struggling, give to charities, rescue puppies -- whatever good things you WANT to do but can't afford to do!

And while money can't buy class, it certainly CAN buy you a course in manners!

Answer 7

Good manners. Good manners will last a life time, money won't.

Answer 8

Look at it this way. Money cannot buy you manners or make you classy, but being classy and having good manners can help you get money. 'Nuff said.

Answer 9

I would rather have money, but I would rather other people have good manners.

Answer 10

If I had enough money, I could hire a good public relations manager to take care of my rudeness.
