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.
Everyone has his or her own concept of money. Many people stand on one side that they believe money is nearly almighty, and they think the amounts of money is the more the better. To this kind of people, a large amount of money is always companied by authority which can also prove their abilities, so they set an aim for making a fortuned. However, some people stand on another side that they are satisfied to earn a comfortable living, just like me.
From my point of view, money plays a role in our daily life as a tool which we use it to buy things or services. Even though the more money can make our lives more luxurious, it also means that we have to spent more time and energy earning money. To compare the pros and cons, I think I’d rather earn a comfortable living than large amounts of money. In general, a normal family can earn enough money for their daily lives without too many luxurious or fancy activities. To be more specific, take my family as an example, we don’t earn a lot and don’t have enough money to travel around the world or buy Gucci or Chanel’s bags, but we also don’t have to spend a lot of time staying in the office; instead, we have every weekend off, so we can go hiking, swimming, window shopping, or just stay at home enjoying the DVDs. This kind of treasure is priceless and no one can earn for that.
It’s contradictory that if people want to make large amounts of money, they must live in rush and speedy life pace, and they have to worry about their business or stocks all the time, so it is almost impossible to gain a comfortable life and make a fortune at the same time. Although we often see the celebrities are reported as millionaires or billionaires, they must sacrifice their time to work, to struggle.
Based on the above comparisons, I feel satisfied to earn a comfortable life because money can buy anything but happiness. I understand and respect everyone’s choice because of the different concepts of money: some people enjoy making money, while others enjoy lives.
