Family and health, I think.

Family. It even says so permanently on my chest

I hope everybody has good health even though I know some of you don't. Even if anybody here feels lonely, you've got the MoFo Family!

Ice-T's wife is ugly. I wouldn't touch her with a pitchfork.

I do however agree that giving and receiving love is most important in life. To have someone that loves you unconditionally is the greatest thing there is.

Second is health.

Now, if you have love and a good health, I'd say the third is wealth. Just think of how sh!tty your life would be if you didn't have any money.

So yeah, that's my top 3.

You could argue that being happy is the most important thing. If you're happy, then the rest doesn't matter. That said, happiness isn't something "in your life", it's a state of being, so it probably doesn't qualify.

My family and my 2 young dogs. Anything else is a distant 2nd.

My caring mum and dad.

All of the above.

My friends are my only family. And music. Movies too perhaps

My dogs. I know this sounds stupid, but I consider them my only IRL friends. Well, the ones that I can trust.

My kids.

I don't have any money and my life isn't ****** at all. The measure of my wealth is in the eyes of my children and the hugs they give me. As long as I can keep a roof over their head I need nothing else.

In all seriousness: God and family. They trump everything else. I would've given the same answer a decade ago, but it undeniably has new meanings and more powerful connotations for me now than it did then, when it was more abstract.

I agree with the family thing, Yoda, but God (religion, not the diety) is prettty shakey in my book. Are you talking in the general sense or are you a specific religion? Just curious.

I'm not sure I understand the question. I believe in God (Jesus Christ, specifically, since you asked), and God is one of the most important things to me, so God is part of my response to the thread's question. My religion is necessarily inseparable from this, and is therefore included as one of the most important things to me.

Don't roll your eyes at me, slim. You don't use money to buy food? Pay for your rent/loan? Pay the electricity and water bills? Buy clothes for your kids? Pay the doctor? That too falls under the denominator 'money'.

Just curious about your denomination. Doesn't matter, really. I don't not belive in God, I just disagree with most organized religions. I do not want this thread to devolve into a religious debate. Consider the question revoked!

You specifically said wealth. Also, yes, I need money to do those things, but I don't need money or the things it can bring other than the things society has deemed it neccessary for me to pay for for survival. One day hopefully science will take us to a place where all of our basic needs are provided for and we all live for the advancement of the human race (like Star Trek! Yes, I'm a nerd).

Point is, I have no need for "wealth" as you said, just what it takes to keep my family healthy and safe.

Are you telling me that you are satisfied with the bare minimum it would take for you to survive? You have a certain degree of luxury in your life at this point. I'm sure of it. Take going to a restaurant every now and then. Take a car instead if public transport. A holiday once in a while. Take even more basic things like eating steak instead of veggies and potatoes and eggs all the time. Jesus, take watching movies at the theater or even having a TV.

Just imagine if all of a sudden all of those 'superfluous' things I just mentioned (and there are many MANY more you don't strictly need for survival) would no longer be a part of your life. Your standard of life as you know it today would go down by a LOT. If you can tell me that your life would then still be as qualitative, satisfying and fulfulling as it is today, then you're either lying or insane.

And don't tell me everything I said above doesn't constitute 'wealth'. It does.

I'm with you here. If you've been born in the West or a 1st world country, geographically speaking, you've won the lottery my friend. Let's face it, what we spend on a single drink, even a can of coke or something, is often akin to what a great many of the world's now 7 billion people live on every day.
