Money Matters!

These days i catch myself working out new ways to earn money(which is why i monetized my blog too btw!) too frequently. I've often been loud about how money matters little(like in my previous blog). But my money matters have taught me that money matters! :\

Its astounding really, how much value money holds in today's life. To think there was a time when there was a trade in kind is a fantasy. I wonder why the barter system died out like it did... everybody seems to prefer money(me included!). If we study, its for money. If we work its for money. If we teach its for money. Bit by bit, second by second, moment by moment, it seems that money is taking control over our very existence. 

I remember a line from a song 'sabse bada rupaiyya' from the movie bluffmaster that went "bin rupaiyya to mister na teri mummy ka pyaar, na paida hota kabhi tu, na kabhi kar sakta mere yaar"(without money you wouldn't have your mother's love, you wouldn't even be born, neither can you give birth)! Money is so important into our lives now, that even birth depends on whether you have you have the jingle in your pockets!

It seems the days when one could say "Money cant buy you everything" are over. It seems money CAN buy you everything: from your B.E. degree to respect. Heck I've heard even love is for sale these days. All i can say at this point is- WHAT is the world coming to! For the way we humans are behaving, it seems armageddon ain't far way! :P
