what's the final resolution in life

Ok, I am just wondering...

What's the final resolution in life to me after all? 

Money? Happiness? Simple life? 

I hope it is not money that I am chasing after all. 

I hope I am after happiness and a simple life with a job that can cover my expenses and also manage to save some money for traveling/charity/for my parents of coz. 

I've got a friend that told me that money is not her final resolution in life. 

That's a wow. 

I mean like wow coz she can firmly tell me that money is not her final resolution in life. 

So what makes me come up with this post? 

The people around me inspired me...

Some of them tend to talk about money all day and night. 

Inspired me...unfortunately really. 

Money is of course important. 

Today we can't do anything without money. 

No way you can get a loaf a bread from bakery without money. 

No way you can get a bottle of clean water without money...unless you drink form tap la. 

No way you can get anything without money. 

Everything needs money. 

Money is important. 

But what about when it comes to money and education? 

Which is more important? 

I've got this friend who is only 20 this year and he hasn't complete his high school yet he is earning already. 

Ok, at first, I think he has no choice but to come out and work for money. 

Today, I think I am wrong. I think he still has a choice to go back to study. Ok, not to say study study in university or college that is gonna cost him a big big bomb. I am saying perhaps take up a short course or learn some skill he likes. That's a secure for him in the future. 

Well, that's what I think. 

Whenever we brought up this topic and talk about it, he always came up with tons of excuses like he feels like he has no enough time to go back study anymore, prolly he is afraid that people same age as him but educated will be ahead of him or something like he is not smart, he is not the study type and etccccc. 

后里蟹! You serious broooooo??!! 

You only 20 years old wor. No enough time??!! What is this worrrrr??!! 

Ok...that's his problem. He himself is the problem. 

Then, the people around him affects him a lot too. 

They kept telling him to work hard work hard and earn more money and he can do it coz he is young! Woohooo can feel the OHMMMZZZZ. 

But come on....think further perhaps? 

He is so young without any skill and let's not talk about the basic education he should get earlier. 

He is so young...and innocent -.-

I talk to him quite often and in fact we are quite close. 

I think he is not mature yet and he is still a small little boy that don't know what is going on in the world. 

He knows the world is cruel. He knows money is important. 

So yes, he is right...but I still feel sorry for him. 

I encourage him to go back and study or take up some course or some skill class to upgrade a bit, at least that's something beneficial for him later and in the future.

He nodded but ah-ah-ah...in the end he always come up with some excuses some shitty ones that I refuse to encourage him anymore. 

Sigh. I hope he will understand that the final resolution in life could be something else...

Also I hope I won't end up working blindly for money only. 

xo.
