When you surround yourself with smart people you have nothing to worry about. I am lucky to be surrounded by them. Many times we feel once we have all the money we need, all the pain and sorrow will go away, but does it really turn out that way at the end of the day? I'm not sure myself but I thought the best way to find out was to ask others and we can all weigh in and explain why we feel so.
Even though it is a complicated question
to answer, I asked some of my friends "Does money equal Comfort?" and the responses I got were amazing, bearing in mind that they are of different age group and I felt this was the best way to do it because that way you get different responses from their point of view depending on how they see life. I personally don't think any of the responses I got was wrong. It just depends on how you view and see the situation and I managed to compile the responses I got. If you think otherwise you can comment and I am sure others will be happy to see this from maybe a totally different point of view.
Below are the "Brilliant
" replies I got, some got me laughing tho... Lol
“No! Comfort
is a relative phenomenon that totally depends on your state of mind, you can
have money and still not be comfortable. Like Nepa in Nigeria, I put on the
Generator but there is still the noise discomfort,again the fact that I can use
a Benz in Nigeria doesn’t mean I have the pleasure to travel bearing in mind
the bad roads, therefore Money hasn’t solved the problem” – Osaro
"Yes! Comfort is something that can be taken care of with material things, I don't think there is any material thing that money cannot buy. It makes you feel at ease with your environment and yourself. Taking a train or trekking vs buying a car, if you have money you would prefer to buy a car. Rented apartments vs buying a house ain't the same thing is it?" – Anonymous

Not at all” – Charles
