I am the first to admit the dollar is an important component in life. Still only one component in a balanced life though. Any fixation on it though is probably generally unhealthy.

This is not an attack on a previous member just what I percieved as a possible issue. In the final anyalisis we all leave this world financially equal at least.

In reality there are still so many more things in life more important than money. The only time excess attention might be devoted or should be devoted to it is if you cannot meet your current daily needs.

Or for example if or any member of my family could become seriously ill later today for example. Any money then is pretty well meaningless. I think you have to be there as both my wife and myself have been to really understand this. Me with cancer at one time and my wife with a very serious heart attack she was fortunate enough to get by.

As the end of the road seriously hopefully slowly approaches I for example will be lucky enough if I get through a list of things to do. They all have little to do with money.
