Much Ado About Money

There is no denying the fact that money plays a crucial part in our lives and without money life would be difficult …. . In fact am one of these people who easily get frustrated when they are broke, and maybe the reason why am writing this at 3:30am is because I am. But I think I should be able to tell you one or two things about money.


One certainly cannot deny the fact that money is important and very essential in our lives. We hear many people say that they don’t want money or that money means nothing to them.This sweeping statement has to be taken with a pinch of salt , because at the end of the day , one needs to exist and for that all of us need a certain amount of money or finance! Money is the bicycle for evangelism. As a matter of fact one of the reason why people strive hard to read, hustle is for money and to be able to meet up with their finances.


What may be different is the degree of dependence on money by different individuals. Some people are happy if their needs are met with and have no great ambitions related to money. Some others have a few ambitions related to their family and personal life and do their best to attain their dreams for all of which money is important.


There are also some like the shameless class of politicians and bureaucrats who can do anything, I mean anything to get money. They believe that power is related to money, so once they have the money, they can control everyone. They would make money at every possible opportunity with no hesitation and this is probably the worst face of money and greed related to the power money can give us !


One other thing is the growing rate of internet fraud among young guys and also the alarming rate of Yahoo+. Yahoo+ is a term in nigeria for internet fraud supported with talisman or some traditional enriching charms. This phase of life is what I call desperation, insecurity of what the future holds.


Money should not be the purpose of our lives but instead it should be a means through which we could manage our lives better. A person should have his/her priorities right with regard to relationships and other aspects of life without giving too much importance only to money related matters.

Money should be earned through hard work and fair means , which in turn gives you mental satisfaction and peace of mind. If not guilt and a troubled conscience will never let you remain happy in life ! This is very important in life because the root cause of all mental and health troubles begin with a troubled conscience and moral guilt ! It's money earned through hard work, self dedication and clean conscience that could give you all audacity to say "You know sey money no be problem" *in sarkodie's voice*.

So, There is no denying the fact that money plays a crucial part in our lives and without money life would be difficult, but it depends entirely on us as to how wisely we earn and use money in our lives.
