Money and You

PenPress
Money gives you importance,
You get friends in abundance.
Without the cash,
Cannot have a bash.
Money is a proud possession,
But it creates a lot of obsession.
You become extravagant,
Also tend to be arrogant.
You spend on the things that are bad,
Remember the good days you had?
Avoid being greedy,
Do you think you're that needy?

Money can get you out of control,
If you don't have self-control.
You indulge yourself to luxury,
Because you always despised misery.
You really don't need everything,
And please, don't become the subject of a sting!
What will be accomplished?
Your image does not have to get tarnished.
If you try to run after the "money train",
Your life will go down the drain.
If you get carried away by its spell,
You may wind up in hell.

Doesn't being wealthy make you glad?
Still money can be both good and bad.
Of course you hated poverty,
But why need multiple property?
If you had issues with the past,
Why spend the wealth so fast?
Make use of every moment,
So that you don't have to lament.
Once you get the money tree,
Try to stop the buying spree.
If you don't act proper,
You can still become a pauper.

Spend money wisely,
But don't get sleazy.
Don't forget to help others,
At the end that is what matters.
Try to do good deeds,
Lookout for other's needs.
Donate some to charity,
Also, don't overlook the family!
Too much money can cause turmoil,
Your own children, do you want to spoil?

Money is important,
But cannot be dominant.
Try not to spend too much,
Don't get carried away as such.
Some amount you can invest,
Since poverty is something you detest.
Set up funds with Fidelity,
And don't indulge infidelity!
Making good decisions is tough,
But being solvent is truly enough.

Money gives you financial security,
Gets you out of obscurity.
Money confers upon you the stardom,
It provides you with freedom.
You still have to have discipline,
To make your life pristine.
Money gives you the confidence,
To show the courage to make a difference.
Still, too much wealth can be bad,
So, prudent choices will not make you sad.

    As I get older I tend to believe that money is the root the all of evil.
