Well cash actually, and lots of it!
Or so I thought.
Now there’s no denying the attractiveness of the green stuff and with the onset of the so called “credit crunch” it’s a lot more scarce than it was. For many people, this equates to the inability to borrow, and for some, especially in the long run, this could be a blessing in disguise. Most people never stop to think about what makes them really happy, and you know what when they do, its not money.
Sure it oils the wheels, gives you choices and of course, when handled properly can provide security and ultimately, peace of mind. Note the last part of that sentence.
It’s really important to take stock of what you’ve actually got and the abundance of riches that involves. If you’re lucky enough to have your health, a family (however extended or close that may be) and some close friends on whom you can depend, you are my friend really rich right now. Incidentally, a very wise man (whose name escapes me) once said that you will never have more than five close friends, represented if you like by the fingers on your right hand.
So, take a look around you and determine what’s really important. Trust me, its not cash.
So go on, FeelReallyRich !

Mike, Enjoyed your comments about what’s really important to most people; you’re right — we all need to do a better job of “keeping it real.”

Hey Rich
Thanks for your post. I look around me and I realise that cash is great, really great, but it isn’t what matters when “push comes to shove”.
Best wishes
Mike
Hi Mike,
Health + family are most important to me.I also rate being successful higher than I rate my bank balance. Cash and lot’s of it is just a bonus. We come into this life with nothing and we leave with nothing.
Great post!

Hi Mike great post could cause quiet a debate
Money gives you choices…very few people need millions to survive..we need to earn enough to give your friends and family security and the rest is really down to your own attitude.
Hope the course is going well for you

Very thoughtful post! It’s so true that the media has whipped the country into a state of fear about money, and that sense of “lack” has just really shaken people to their core. Remembering what is REALLY important is paramount. Thanks for bringing that reminder to the forefront!
Nice informative post and a great resource for anyone interested in making money off ebay.
Hi Mike,
Your so right, i mean we need to be healthy alive and well before we make any money, or you will not be in a fit enough state to enjoy it anyway!
Great post….Ed.
Hey Mike
Some good points there, too many people these days base their lives on knowing the cost of everytihng and the value of nothing.
We all have to make money but its not the be all and end all.
I like your point about the credit crunch, any business who needs to borrow is possbily not operating in a sustainable way (been there done that) just getting deeper in the red to keep going – I suscribe to the fact that its probably better to grow your business organically, make money re invest and keep everything on a sound footing with minimal overheads (boy have I invested with borrowed money and wish I hadn’t at all!)
Hopefully most businesses will come out the other end better for it at the end of this recession.
