Money is an important part of life, and one should learn to manage it wisely. However, it isn’t everything. In a barren desert, a bottle of water is more valuable than a bag of gold, which is actually a burden because of its weight. On a date, a scooter can be more valuable than a BMW because a girl holding tightly to her date on the back of a scooter can have a closer bonding experience than a girl sitting in the passenger seat of a car. Most of the time, the necessity of money has been greatly exaggerated by the society. The value of money depends on the situation. It can be totally useless in one case and incomparably influential in another. The only unchangeable truth is that its utility increases when we share it—life is generous to us when we are generous to others. We can all become masters of money if we put ourselves in the right frame of mind. When we are poor, we shall ask ourselves, “Why?” There must be a reason. When we see the rich, we should become inspired: What can we learn from them? When we are with the rich, our hearts should be at peace. Be happy for them, and be thankful for your own blessings. When we are rich, a frugal yet generous life is the true sign of good character. Some pinch pennies because they have to, but a wealthy person who wastes nothing and lives a frugal life is truly someone to be admired.
