It is what you do with money that counts

Think about how money and work are important. (for you and for other people.) Money is very important to your wellbeing but it is often misunderstood. Many people think wellbeing equals money. But there is much more to your wellbeing than having money.

Many people think that successful people always have a lot of money. But you don’t need money to be successful. People often look up to people with money and possessions. (people often think that people with money are more important.) but money and possessions don’t make people good people.

People often think that having a lot of money and possessions they will be happy. But wealthy people are not always happier than people with less money (they often worry about losing their possessions).

Money can Improve your wellbeing because it allows you to buy things (Resources) you need or want.

People buy things they use in order to improve their basic needs. People use money to pay for food, water, clothing, housing, doctors, and so on (to meet their needs for health for example). And so on. People give money to other people in return for their help. Money allows people to buy things that help other people meet their basic needs.

But you can easily buy things that are not good for your wellbeing.

Lots of people buy all sorts of things to eat. Drink. Burn. Use. Consume. Own. And possess that: Less happy and less healthy. Make other people worse off. Harm the natural environment.
