i feel that my achievement is very very low...
So that: 560000 US$$ is my estimated budget for your house in my surroundings. I assure you would be inside of the so-called group of the rich here. So, come on, put your home into your suitcase and come here.
Kerrie said:saint, i think you need to realize how much of a grip society status has on you and how much that grip truly makes you unhappy. are you and your family healthy and happy? do you make good memories within the life you afford now? you have the "grass is always greener on the other side" outlook which is certain to make you unhappy. you have one thing that many of us here in america do not have: you are buying your own home. my husband and i make 5 times what you make, but we cannot afford to buy a house (yet). not even one that is half as decent as yours, but i do have a home, i have a family whom i love, and they love me (so they say :tongue: ), and most of all, we are all very healthy and happy. anything sort of material gains above that would make me truly rich.
there is a quote, although i do not remember the exact words, but it implies a rich man has money, but a wealthy man has time. what good is life if you have a lot of money but not any time? your need and desire for so much money is ultimately making you unhappy and leaves you feeling miserable.
Math Is Hard said:But Saint, isn't it "easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God"?
I can't believe you say you are *truly unhappy* when you have a nice house and car, your children are fed and clothed, and you still have money left over for luxury items like a flat screen TV. You have a very comfortable life. Enjoy it.
Saint said:I am sinful, I am not contented,
this is my problem, i realize that, but i am just feeble to overcome my desire...
Hope you find what you seek saint.
Saint said:Thanks.
If i were rich, i am serious to setup a scholarship ONLY for orphans.
Have you been attempting to cut a deal with God?Saint said:...I need special blessing from God, and i promise to do GOOD with the blessings He gives me --- anyway, subject to his will.

Saint said:I am truly unhappy, because:
1) I have a TV, only 25" Panasonic Flat screen, but i want 54" Plasma TV
2) I have a notebook, running at 2.4GHz Intel Celeron, but i want Athlon 64FX or intel P4 3.0GHZ HT notebook
3) I have house, but i want a 10,000 sqft bungalow with swimming pool and small golf.
4) i have a 1500cc Proton Wira car, but i want BMW 530
5) i can do charity, but one time i donate only about 20USD, I want to donate 20,000USD and still have enough money in my bank account

I scare no mocking,
I definitely will fullfil my words when i achieve what i want to achieve.
Life must have dream, dream of having a lot of money is not wrong, only the lazy persons will say NO to "earning a lot of money to help the poor".
Don't laugh, you don't know what will happen in the future, God will bless my ways if I walk in his path.
