What do you have that money can't buy?

[Eliza72]

Coming to terms with the fact that im probably never going to be a gazillionaire 🤣🤣 But I do feel lucky in lots of ways.

You know that lush feeling you get just before you fall asleep and you are so cosy and comfy? I was chatting to a friend saying that it didn't matter how well off you were that feeling would be the same!

So with that in mind, what experience or things do you do/have that money has no relevance to?

Self esteem & self confidence, a job I love, good friends & opportunities to volunteer in projects that interest me.

Genuine lovely friendships. I imagine being loaded may make you question whether friendships are genuine.

The slight chill in the air now that autumn is coming - I love our seasons and going for walks taking all of the changes in

My own perfume, designed especially for me.

Okay, you probably can buy this, but I was given it as a gift by a perfume house.

These are all lovely 😊😊

Finally feeling happy in myself & a lovely family.

Morals 😜
2 happy, healthy children.
A man that loves me and is willing to put up with me no matter what!

A husband who genuinely makes me feel loved.
3 children who I bloody adore.
The best cat in the world.
Parents, sister and Nan who I would die for and who would do the same for me.

The moments when I watch those I love interact with my children with such love and wonder.

Strong, life long friendships ,
Being well loved
Lust for life and learning

I have learned to live alongside my medical condition, brought on by a medical accident and am now (4 yrs on) happily adjusted to my new lifestyle.

Bittersweet but I got to hold both my parents hands as they passed. And that’s a special thing in this day and age.

Robust mental health. My main worry in life is the covid pandemic, but it’s not keeping me awake at night. As a 50+ asthmatic, I'm obviously concerned and I’m being extremely careful, but that is a proportionate & rational approach for someone in my position.

Obviously, being financially comfortable helps with this, but plenty of people who are far richer than I will ever be struggle with mental health problems.

Twins

A joyous smile.

My dd

A really loyal circle of girlfriends who in the last few months have rallied round and put me back together again after a breakdown. Endless nights of them cooking dinner for me and my children. Cleaning my house. Loaning me money for legal fees. I am eternally greatful. No amount of money can buy that.

Aaaaaaannnnnddddd now I'm crying 😢!!!

A kind, loyal, loving husband and a healthy, kind, beautiful son.

A caring and dependable brother.

My kids and my siblings/ my family

Health, nice house, good job

That lovely feeling when it’s a bit chilly and you jump back into bed after a shower and it’s still warm.

A supercute bunny

Resilience. I am generally blessed but when the shit has hit the fan I have deep reserves to draw on and just keep on going. Not everyone has this

Lots of people who love and support me.

Two lovely children who miraculously still love spending time with me and generally have grown up to be really lovely & decent beings.

Super speedy metabolism

A 36 week old baby wriggling about inside my belly (well, uterus) 🥰

A very young family, so my children meet their great great grandparents and get to share love and memories

Patience. My son is disabled and I would never have guessed beforehand how much patience I would need, or have.
