    Money makes relationships

    People are being money-minded day by day. They have started to see one another as a machine. Either it is of use or not use. Today people prefer to connect to those people who have money, power and position. I have noticed that in a marriage ceremony, people invite wealthy persons although they are very distant relatives and leaving their own siblings because of money. Such people neither go to their houses nor invite them to come home. In today's life money matters seem to be behind making relationships.

    No doubt, money plays an important role in building good relationships because nobody wants to connect with poor people whether they have good behaviour and morals.

    A thought provoking post by the author. Yes, money is very important in our lives but it should not be considered above the relationships. I understand that there are some people who do a lot of show off when they have got more money and forget the importance of love and affection with the near and dear in their family and relations. But such people earn a bad reputation while behaving in that manner and are considered to be acting in a bad taste.
    Money can only bring matrialistic happiness and that is all. The real love and affection can be generated only through good behaviour. Money will come and money will go but relationships will stay for ever. Having cordial and good relationship with others is much more important than money.

    Knowledge is power.

    The author has come out with a very good topic. One should know that money is important but it is not the only important thing in this world. To have a peaceful life we should have good health, helpful friends and relatives etc.
    One should maintain good human relations.
    We should not treat a person based on his richness, especially in our household relations and functions. Of course, in official dealings, we may have to give importance to the people based on their position and their authority. But in marriages and similar functions in our house, we should give more importance to our relations more than money.
    But in the present day society, we are noticing the trend mentioned by the author. That is not at all a welcome feature and we should start treating all equally.

    Humans are social animals and they make relationships according to their needs and life goals. You will hardly find a person in today's times who will become your friend without any vested interests. Only your family members or those who know you from childhood or school days will support you without any conditions. In my view, there is no point in seeking validation from such people. If they are not interested in you then it's good for you. Just be happy with your friends and family. If you start giving importance to such people you will create unnecessary negativity in your life. We can't change the mentality of people but we can surely ignore them.

    I have seen poor families live happily and support each other during tough times, while a rich family is always fighting among themselves for monetary gains. Money-minded people usually are not good friends, they are parasites looking for a host. Just be happy with quality people in your life. You don't need a crowd to live a happy life.

    Humble yourself or life will do it for you!

    It is really a valuable post from the author's side. However, I have noted very clearly that for some people the proximity of the relationship would not be affected due to the monetary status of some people. Even a wealthy person can show his warmth in a relationship with a poor man but the opposite of the relationship might occur. The unfortunate part of a poor man's love for a rich man could make others suspicious of such a skewed relationship, even though this relationship is based upon their emotional connection.

    Now talking about the attitude of rich people, they might be money-minded and they prefer to establish ties with the affluent classes for their gains.

    Finally, I would say no concrete proof of establishing human relations is based on an arithmetical calculation. Emotional attachment will definitely change the outcome.

    There are many rich people who behave in a modest and cordial way with others. They do not unnecessarily show off their money and facilities to others. Such people get a lot of respect in the society. People like their company.
    On the other hand there are some people who think that money is everything and once they have the money they can behave with people in whatever way they want. If they think so they are having a wrong notion. Due to such a behaviour people will not like them and avoid them most of the times.
    In close relations when people show off then relatives are hurt and feel that the person has not got any affection with them. This is in bad taste. Money is not the everything in this world.

    Thoughts exchanged is knowledge gained.
