He he he he :D .. Trust me, a similar thing happened to me very recently. They were asking me why I didn’t pursue working in the engineering field since there was a lot of money in it and all of my friends were earning the big bucks. I guess people have a weird sense of guaging success and it is about the car, cash and the size of house and how expensive the clothes are. Not many seem to care how they come.

True Priyanka, even I find the urge to tell these people that there is a difference between choice and compulsion and then I also realize that it seems to them that we are defending ourselves.

Thank you Priyanka, glad that you enjoyed the post and really happy that you shared your experience… would love to keep hearing more of those :)

One of my school friend added me on FB and a general conversation was going on, then he asked me about my brother’s profile, I mentioned he is well settled in US and associated with a well-known company and I am on sabbatical and now pursuing writing. He exclaimed and suggested me that I should follow my brother and making money. He didn’t ask my interest for my action rather he presumed that I am not doing anything great as I am not making lot of money. I wanted to let him know that I have chosen it however later I refused to explain anything to him. Most of the time success of a person exemplify with how much money is he/she earning? And that’s what we people try to show off. Money has its wide presence in everyone’s life and I do agree we need it to lead a comfortable life however money could not be tag as the most important thing. For what I believe personal satisfaction is above all. Nice Read Vinay…..:)

Completely agree with your point.

Thank you Sunila, nice to hear your views :).. You said it! It is all about striking the right balance. True, I guess the exact definition of materialistic might be more money which gets you more materials, probably it has taken a different meaning with time and of course with constant usage..

He he, I am still searching for a long lost aunt or uncle like that ;) :D

True Krishna, it is all about that fine balance in life which keeps it swinging in good pace. I guess it is natural to keep tilting on either sides as long as we don’t fall :)

And I couldn’t agree more, money should come with respect associated with it or else it completely loses its value and its meaning..

Agree to the point that money is not the most important thing in your life. As Sunila said, its upto us to find the right balance between your needs and where you want to be. But for some people making more and more money is important than doing what you love.
We need to respect the money that we earn. Once you start showing disrespect, thats the point where you start deteriorating yourself.

Nice thought-provoking post.

Keep blogging!

But even more important is to strike the right balance…so that you have money to fulfill your needs, but also, not to lose sight of what you are and where you want to be.

Actually, it’s different strokes for different folks. If it’s money that rocks their boat, who are we to call them materialistic? If it’s birds and butterflies that satisfies your heart at the cost of a lesser remuneration, then that’s what it should be. What I am trying to say is that will any of us complain if a rich aunt or a materialistic uncle would leave us with a big fat legacy?
