Money and the Meaning of Life Recently,a professor of philosophy in theUnited States has written a book called Money and the Meanlng of Life. He hasdiscovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaningthan we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is tokeep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spendtheir money, they can see what they really value in life. He says our relationwith others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. Youmight have a wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are verygood friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you somemoney. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems strongerthan ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesnt. Thisperson may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out inthe money world, there is something lereal about it.

People just have an idea of ma-ki-ng more and more money, but what is itfor？How much do I need for any given purposes in my life7 In his book, theprofessor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the ideathat money is an instrument rather than the end. IMoney plays an important rolein the material world, but expecting money to give happinemay be missing themeaning of life.
