Seven Figures or Love

<p>Your choices: a seven figure income or love. When I say love I mean romantic true love. Its a serious question. You can only have one. I AM NOT inferring that anyone who has love won't be able to have a seven figure income or someone with a seven figure income won't have love. I'm sure everyone in there teens has had a friend ask "this girl or that girl, only pick one" / "this car or that car, only pick one" / "this nasty thing to eat or this nasty thing to eat, only pick one" so here's my version. Post and explain. I'm not even telling anyone to do anything or even suggesting anything. Just outta curiousity, I want to know. If you don't want to answer, don't post and this post will just die and not hurt anyone.</p>

<p>I'm going with love.</p>

<p>I have to take the money. Love is blind, but money can buy you sight.</p>

<p>definitely the money -- just because I think it is more possible for someone rich to find love than for someone in love to become so wealthy. There's so much out there I want to do (sry to be cliche, but traveling the world, donating to places that have personally helped me...). And anyway, I don't mind (at least I don't think I mind) dying without ever finding a "true love"...I've never been much of a romanticist or sentimentalist anyway. </p>

<p>joev put it pretty nicely, too.</p>

<p>love. waking up beside someone you love and having someone to talk to or just hug is pricelss.</p>

<p>Love. You can spend a lifetime earning money, but you might need to spend a lifetime searching for love.</p>

<p>Yes, I am a romantic.</p>

<p>I have to go with love. I believe that everyone has a soulmate..it's just a matter of whether you find them in this lifetime. If you find them in this lifetime or someone who is compatible, then you should go for it full force. I'm also a romantic..</p>

<p>Love Definetly. Its worth more than all the money there is.
this might sound corny - " Money cant buy you happines"</p>

<p>^ Priceless</p>

<p>definitely money.... i dont want to end up having to beg for money and then have a divorce because i dont have money to support my lover....and then live unhappily.... so money IT IS. plus, with money, comes love !</p>

<p>Had I heard people being asked a question like this 6 months ago, I would have said anyone who didn't answer in favor of the money is an idiot. Now, I'm not so sure. That feeling of being love is pretty special.</p>

<p>all u need is love.. love is all u need :D</p>

<p>but .. in all seriousness.. i wouldnt mind the money either!!!</p>

<p>Neither...</p>

<p>I am too darn greedy, i would give up anything for money. It is almost my only true passion in life. My friends and I always ponder what we would do for a given amount of money. everything has its price</p>

<p>Love.
Money doesn't buy happiness. Cliche, but true. At least for me.</p>

<p>LOVE!! </p>

<p>don't get me wrong, i would def like both. but having someone care for you no matter what and the sensation of being in love is probably more satisfying than the 7 figure income. </p>

<p>and what if either me or my true love has a 6 figure income? that's not bad at all. besides, i'd probably waste the extra money on something worthless or give it away.</p>

<p>so the tally is...</p>

<p>Love: 8
Money: 4
Unsure/Neither:2</p>

<p>There is a simple distinction to make between being happy and achieving happiness. I don't think anyone has ever achieved happiness--if they have they are not living. There is always stuff to worry about in life. However, one can be happy and still have other stuff to worry about. You can't deny that money does not make you happy (but it certainly does not buy you happiness).</p>

<p>love, i promise, if your family died and you had no friends .. and you didn't have someone to look forward to talking to everyday.. you may get so lonely, and even if you had money, you'd have no one to spend it on, and spending it all on yourself isn't much fun .. i guess that's not exactly the case cuz you're only talking about one significant other .. i still say love though, after a while, money means nothing</p>

<p>Love, of course.</p>

<p>... and a $999,999.50 a year income.</p>

<p>A seven figure annual income versus love?</p>

<p>I'd take the income, thats a lot of money.</p>

<p>true love is the greatest thing that there is, even a 40-figure income cannot beat it</p>

<p>I think love. There's so much I want to do in the world that costs money (namely traveling) but money isn't something you can hold at night (well you can but that's wierd), it can't love you back, only love can. If you've ever been depressed and felt alone, than you know how important love is. To love and to be loved, there is nothing greater.</p>
