WHAT MONEY CAN AND CANNOT BUY Several years ago I found an inspiring list of what money can and cannot buy. I copied it on an index card so I could read it often. Since then, I have added some of my own thoughts to the list. I find it provides balance to holiday spending. Contentment is being thankful for what we have instead of striving for what we don't have. What Money Cannot Buy a bed but not sleep
food but not appetite
house but not a home
luxuries but not culture
companions but not friends
books but not brains
finery but not beauty
medicine but not health
amusement but not happiness
flattery but not respect
fashion apparel but not style
sex but not love
pleasure but not contentment. We value the things we pay money for. We fail to see value in the things that come free and cannot be replaced.
