I want both, why do you want to associate my health with my wealth?

Definitely. There is a saying, " If wealth is lost, it can be earned back. But if health is lost everything is lost." My preference is Health. If health is good, all other things follow. I should admit your opinion is very wise.

 

Remember your comment when giving the BR, I am missing smilies at this point

Oh.... Tell me why do you think smiles are important ? do you think Smiles represent a a new addition that's worthy of smiles ?

Smiles will be added at the time of awarding BR

 

smilies the emoticins are way of showing your mood online, I wanted to lol at that very point. That helps keep me fit and healthy. (Remember the promissed BR) l am sure that is mine

An appropriate reason for adding smiles. Definitely I will add smiles when the BR is declared.. So confident !!!. what are the reasons for your confidence ?

 

I really am missing smileys here during discussions, I wonder why they were not reinstalled ...

As for choosing between the two, I want both because they are interconnected.Let us face it - none of us is perfectly fit, may be now we are, but we can never be sure about tomorrow,and medical expenses being what they are, it is very essential to have enough money to take care of ourselves.And, if one is sufficiently intelligent and knows how to take good care of himself/herself, it is understood that the person will remain healthy until some unforeseen calamity hits him/her , which may incur expenditure. So, I choose wealth..

You just stole my BR. I am missing smilies again 

It is true that wealth cannot be enjoyed without health, but it does not mean that health is wealth. By definition, Wealth is an abundance of valuable possessions by a person. These valuables (wealths) are of different types, including: Money, Material, Property, Health, Education, Power of reasoning, Wisdom, etc. All these are wealths. That means Health is just ‘one of these wealths’. If you say ‘health is wealth’ in a generalised way, all other factors are ignored into void. 

 

It is what exactly wanted. Pros and cons of the thread are to be discussed thoroughly. Regarding adding of smiles, just now I announced that Smiles will be added or an appropriate figure will be added after selecting the Best Response.

 

I choose health for the simple reason that if you have good health you can enjoy whatever wealth you have but howsoever wealth you may have you will not be able to enjoy it if you do not have health. That is why health is wealth and not the reverse.

A justification indeed. I feel after a particular stage in life, only Health counts. One cannot enjoy the money earned from the hospital bed. Is not it ?

True but why cant one have both of these at the same time? Why should I chose one while I can enjoy both of these without a worry in the world

I am told by a friend that one of the leading rich person of India eats only khichdi because of poor digestion from last twenty years or so.

See the benefit of being rich he can afford to eat khichdi. Considering the cost of pulses, a poor man like me had no choice but to go for Hydarabadi Birayani.

What is the use of any food when you don't have teeth to munch ?

And think the opposite way, what is the use of teeth if I have nothing to eat

If you have Health, things to eat will come of their own accord. A long lasting health has the potential to create anything. Including food.

 

 

 

Health alone cannot bring food. He needs intelligence and should know how to earn.

Having sound health is the sum total of many components. When they work in totality, a perfect health is possible
