There is a question on Zhihu, how important is money?

The answer with the most likes is about freedom and dignity. It is two passages that Maugham said: "Money can bring people the most precious thing in the world--not asking for help."
The answer with the second thumbs up is about life: "It's really hard to say how important money is. It depends on whether you have it and how much you have. When you have it, it doesn't matter at all. When you don't have it, it is life." , even more important than life."
There are still many people in the society who have always been proud of hating money, "Isn't it just rich, what's so great about it!" In fact, it's just because they are poor that they can't change the status quo, and they can't see behind those rich people. A certain talent, self-discipline, and sweat and hard work that go beyond the ordinary.
Somerset Maugham once said:
"There is nothing more disgraceful in the world than to worry about your livelihood all the time. I despise people who treat money like dirt. They are either hypocrites or fools.
They don't know how low poverty makes you. It humiliates you endlessly, kills your ambitions, eats your soul like a cancer. "
Even though money is not everything, money cannot buy everything, and cannot solve all problems, but it can indeed bring us choices and resist the risks of life.
