Is wealth really a necessity? Before I got married and started having a family, If you asked me this same question above, my reply would be wealth is not a necessity to me. But with my experience while married with a child now, my notion and believe on this has changed. As a matter of fact, wealth is a necessity to be able to live comfortably with your family. I desire wealth now not because of me but for my child. I want to be able to give my child all the support and love she needs physically, morally, financially and socially. I want her to be comfortable and happy providing all her needs. Wealth is needed to achieve all this things. Struggling to cater for a child without enough resources could be very challenging.
While I was single, I don't really care about living in luxury or get bothered about not having enough money to throw around, buying expensive shoes, clothes and bags or going or vacation, riding expensive cars and so on. But now, I would love to have wealth to give my child all these things because I feel really bad when she needs something and I couldn't afford it. Living in wealth creates some opportunities for you that you might not have if you are not wealthy. It can re write your story and give you an entire new life.
