Happy Friday Stackers!

Probably love is the most talked of things that money can't buy but there must be many many others because the world is full of options that money can buy. It's possible we have equal amount of things money can't buy.

Eager to know what else than emotions, but there are many examples where money also busy emotions, isn't it true. Perhaps we can discuss it and list out some which money can't buy.

Have your say.....

Health - sure you can spend a lot of money on it and in some cases get very good outcomes not available to people without money, but the opposite is also true: often no amount of money will stop your health from collapsing.

You mean 'life' in short, haha.

Sure, one big thing I've realised very recently that money doesn't buy you is HEALTH. It's actually a mix of many things that buy you good health and money plays its role but is often not enough.

I totally agree!

If you're going to die, you die! That's it!

There is an understandable, but common misconception, that the Bible preaches against "money". It doesn't exactly, but it does preach against "trusting it" and thinking that it offers you security.

This is exemplified by the Rich Fool parable:

“There was a rich man whose land produced a bountiful harvest. He asked himself, ‘What shall I do, for I do not have space to store my harvest?’ And he said, ‘This is what I shall do: I shall tear down my barns and build larger ones. There I shall store all my grain and other goods and I shall say to myself, “Now as for you, you have so many good things stored up for many years, rest, eat, drink, be merry!”’

But God said to him, ‘You fool, this very night your life will be demanded of you; and the things you have prepared, to whom will they belong?’

This ultimately gets to the heart of the matter. The rich man has planned for decades in advance, but in truth he can't even control this very night. His harvest will be owned by others...Money offers you no real security.....You can have 10000 BTC and your wife + kid can get killed by a bus and no amount of money is going to change a single iota of the outcome.

This doesn't mean you shouldn't plan, nor try to be a good steward for your family, but your life and theirs is on loan and the terms are non-negotiable.

I’d add trust and respect to the list. Those have to be earned.

You can use money to get someone to do what you want, but you can’t use it to get them to value your judgment.

The most important things in life are priceless — and money can’t buy them. Money can’t buy life. It can’t buy peace, truth, real love, or meaning. At best it helps around the edges, but the core of life has no price tag.
