money=everything?

Is money that important for people?well,some might say yes,some might say no..there are people in this world thinking that money equals to everything..there are people who will fight for money,quarrel for money and argue for money..but for me,though money is important but it is not everything..money can buy you friends, but not friendships..money can buy you medicine,but not health..money can buy you sex,but not love..to sum up,money can buy you almost everything,but not happiness

I heard a story today from someone from Befrienders(don't get me wrong..i didn't 'visit' Befrienders..i'm not depressed..hahah!)..back to the story,it is a very meaningful story,it's between a father and a son...it goes like this:-

son : papa,how much did u earn an hour while you work?
papa : 20 dollars per hour my dear
son : then....hm,can i....can i borrow 10dollars from you, papa?
papa : why you need that much of money since you have monthly allowance?!(angrily)
son : i....i....
papa : go to your bed and sleep now!

His son went up to his room with a sad face but a few minutes later his father was thinking maybe his son needs the 10 dollars to buy something important, and he shouldn't scold him just now...so he took 10dollars from his wallet and went to his son's room

papa : are you asleep?
son : not yet, papa..you may come in
papa : here's the 1o dollars you wanted just now
son : thanks papa!

His son ran to his drawer and took out coins he collected

papa : why you need 10dollars from me but you already have the money?
son : because i have a total of 20dollars if i add the 10 dollars you just gave me
papa : why you need the 20dollars for?
son : to 'buy' an hour from your working hours to spend time with me

I think the story above tells it all..yes money is important but there is something more important than that
