What is money really worth

"I wanna be a billionaire so fricking bad
Buy all of the things I never had
Uh, I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen".....or do I?
Whenever we think of money we always see no worries and a carefree life, but I don't think this is not always the case. The more money a person has the more they have to be careful with who they associate with and the motives of these people. It's often true that the more money you have the more friends you have, but not the true friendships that we all long for. With the money comes the lies and the backstabbing. No longer do people value you for the person you are, but most just see the dollar signs that are associated with you. As the saying goes its lonely at the top and when you have the power of money you come to learn that very quickly.
In today's world we are so obsessed with material things that we forget what truly matters in life. everyone looks to celebrities and thinks that they are so lucky, but taking a real look we can see their flaws. How many of them are in dysfunctional relationships?? How many of them need drugs and prescriptions just to make it through the day as they go into and out of rehab?? showing that the grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence.
Personally for me, I don't know what I would do without real friends who like me for me not what I can get them or how I can increase their social status. Anyone who only values money and cares about the class a person has will never be happy and may even use their insecurities about themselves to bring others down. As they only seek out those who are rich they fail to appreciate the greatness of those who do not have the cash, but have a great heart. In life I chose to value people and not possessions. I want to find a partner in life that will be loyal to me and not just throw me to the curb when they are bored, which leads me to believe that even though I may not get what I want all the time at least I have the main things I need to survive and support that will keep me from falling to the traps of a lonely, sad life that revolves around hanging out with the right people and having tons of money.
so yes I may want to be a billionaire when first thinking about it, but i soon realize that there are much more important things that are priceless and without these things life would be unsustainable to me.

bye for now,
