Nancy's Writing Pratice 05

Many people believe that it is very important to make large amounts of money, while others are satisfied to earn a comfortable living. Analyze each viewpoint and take a stand. Give specific reasons for your point.


Money is always the thing which people pursuing in a whole life, but it depends on how important you look it. Some people may take it for the ticket of happiness; others just use money as a plus for a better life. I certainly stand for the attitude which doesn’t take money for necessary. The meaning hidden in the life is more precious than make money. Money is just an express train to take you into a convenient world.

Let’s see how the way a rich man lives. He might have many women stay nights with him, but no one truly loves in him, just for his money. On the other side, he makes a lots money and struggling for work in the most of time without enjoying other moments just for the things besides money. Unfortunately, he lost the chance to learn how to being a human. The whole money is in vain, because he doesn’t know what the goal he needs to chase in life is, he is chasing by the money. Besides, it’s apparently that money controls his life. It’s so sad to see a man die along with large amounts of money but nobody cares him from the heart. Money just makes life more convenient, it won’t buy you a person who really cares about you; it won’t buy the time to take you back.

There is an old saying “a contented mind is a perpetual feast.” You are happy because you have a stable job without the fear of unemployment and you own a small house but it provides your family a sweet atmosphere. Maybe you don’t make a lot of money but you earned more time to spending with your family, share every happiest moments with your friends. You don’t have a Benz but you still drive a car traveling around the city and accompany with your lovely children, who cares it is a Benz or not! For me, I can’t work the whole day without my personal leisure time, although it paid me a high salary. Free time is the main thing which I most enjoying in my life. Therefore, money is just a meaningless stuff for me to exchange more leisure time.

It’s easy to make money, but it’s really hard to complete the life. You could use money help you live in a comfortable way, but never expecting money brings anything to you. Satisfied with the present situation is always the way a happy man do.

It's good to indicate the side effect about making large amounts of money and provide the reasons of your choice. I really appreciate your content in paragraph 3 in which you use an English saying and add your own opinion and example, and I believe that will lighten your choice.

However, I think you still have to analyze the viewpoint of people who prefer to make large amounts of money. Provide the reasons why they believe they have to earn such lots of money.
