During the time of my growth from childhood.money was always low.Every day when I woke up I
always saw my parents sweating,trying to I enough to pay the mortgage and raise three kids.My parents
never 2 and seemed happy even though we didn't have a lot.
Right now I'm the 3 my parents were when they had the third baby.Unlike them.I don't have any
kids to 4.I don't have a mortgage to pay,and luckily I have a higher 5.In an outsider's opinion,I
should be very 6 but in fact I'm not.Here's why.
Money is always a 7 thing.You think that by having it you'll be happy.8 you start making
some and realize it's not making you happy,you think maybe it's because you don't have enough.So you
exchange your 9 for money,sometimes working at a job you don't even like to make more 10.As
time goes on.you 11 you've been spending more and more time at work.You fail to keep a(n)12 between
work and family.Friends wonder why you don't 13 them anymore.As you get a higher position.you feel
more 14 than you did before.You find you don't 15 so well anymore.As a result,your health begins
to fail.Also,the cost of keeping up with a higher quality of life is starting to 16 and you're not making as
much as you 17 you would be.At the same time,you are worried about 18 the few friends you have
because you're earning more money than they are.Workmates think you earn very much and that you must be
happy.If only that were 19.
E
Only you can 20 your happiness;money can't buy that for you
