I can say that I am a rich man. On the other hand and I am not, I will explain to you why, but let's start from the beginning.

I am from a small town and that's how I would start my story about wealth. Back in 2003, I enrolled in high school and then college in the largest and capital city of my country. First I lived in a dorm. I will tell you about my dorm life in some of the following articles.

Later I lived in a rented apartment, as a tenant. At first with a few roommates, to make our apartment cheaper, and then with one roommate, and that is where the story of my wealth begins, or not, you'll hear already.

My parents sold an unfinished house in their hometown during the period of my tenancy living and with that money we bought an unfinished house in the capital city of my country. Ha! I got rich, but wait, I didn’t have a job, I didn’t have money to pay the bills and I wondered what kind of wealth was that? It wasn't that easy to explain. People thought I was rich but actually I was totally without money.

Then I fell in love. We both found a job and we started living together, got married and in a few months we had a baby in womb. We tried to finish the whole house, but of course there was no money. We sold the house and bought the apartment, thanks to bank housing loan. Well, they talked again, he is really rich, he bought an apartment! But have I become rich? My entire salary was in fact a rate for that apartment, and it is still, I don't know why I am talking about that in the past, probably because I would like that to be past and to be already paid. It will happen of course, but when I am 70 years old. Will I be alive then? Well, I think I'm not rich, I'm actually trapped.

I don't know what else to tell you, except that the wealth is not mine and it is not that what I was talking about in this article. The real wealth are our children and time that is spent with family, if you agree? And BCH of course...😊

It is very true what you say, wealth is not material but the love of your family and friends. That is what it means to be rich.

I absolutely agree with you that kids are our greatest wealth and without them nothing has sense but we also need money if we want to be able to afford everything what they need.

Yes, money is important of course if we want to make life with our family more beautiful and quality but without children, nothing matters.
