Oh My Money !

I am being haunted by questions which almost every bachelor (with a little concern for himself) faces while moving from studenthood to professionhood. Questions like 'Where am i heading to?' , 'Wherein lies my future?', 'Shall i do an MBA or CFA or ... ?' and other of the sorts keeps the mind guessing the seemingly best alternative. Now, while discussing such concerns with elderly and experienced people they ask me what is it that you want. I say I want to taste success, I want to be rich. For me being successful is being rich. To my answer they reply, money should never be your cause but this answer has always eluded me.

Why is it that money should not be your cause. I believe that today money is all powerful. Every person wants to earn money and become rich. Everyone works for money, its just that some dont want to accept it. Money has the power to solve all your problems. Money can give you happiness, it can five you fame, it can give you an opportunity to fulfil your fairy tale dreams, it can give you power and what not. Money is the solution for all your problems. I know there will be lots of people who will disagree with me on this but I urge them to think deeper into it, just think what if money is scarce in situations you've thought. People say money is not everything. Yeah, the marginal utility of money decreases after a certain extent and it ceases to be everything but dammit you need to reach to that extent before you can realize it. People say money cannot give you happiness ans some even say I dont work for money, dude dont you desire bonuses in your salary or profits in your business.

Now dont start thinking that I support smugglers or anyone like that. Earn money but dont lose your integrity. Its just that I want to say that money is a valid cause for anything which is not crime. Each and every one works for money. Its just that some accepts it and the remaining fail to realize that money is the basic cause they are working for. If someone is working for free, it means he already has enough of money, the case where marginal utility has decreased.Even if you are a socialist and you are very noble and you want to help others its again money which is the solution.

So money is very well a valid cause for anything you do. Just keep a balance of things in your life. Whenever marginal utility of money decreases for you, reshuffle your priorities and set them straight. Thats it!!
