Imagine exchanging $10 for $500. That would be a good deal. How much more important is your own life or another’s, than money? Authentic relationships with wonderful loving family members and loyal friends are truly priceless.

“Friendship is like money, easier made than kept” (Samuel Butler). Friends are who we become like in thought, attitudes, behavior, success, character, principles, life philosophy, and moral code, therefore be choosy who you become friends with. Treasure friendships more than any material, monetary or replaceable items because few real friends whom are truly dependable, honest, and morally upright in character may cross your path during this life.

“A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out” (Walter Winchell). This type of friendship is rare and to be cherished. We can all help each other, but true friends are few. Possessing an abundance of money is a wonderful desire and blessing as long as a noble purpose exists for that currency.
