Money

            We need money to purchase our basic needs. Food, shelter,clothing and education are a few examples of our basic needs. We need to manage our money because money makes the world go round.
    
           People could earn money starting from a matured age. However, in poor countries some children as young as at the age of seven works to help support their loved ones. Earning money could be divided into two ways, the legal and illegal way. The illegal way of earning money is by robing, stealing and gambling. The only way of earning legal money is by working. We could also use our talent to earn money.

          Sometimes money could lead us to lots of trouble as we will worry about our safety. In addition, we would always think why people are being really nice to us. Is it because of our money or our personality? This may lead to sadness due to having friendships that are not genuine.

         There are many types of currencies from various countries. The Sterling Pound is used in the British Isles, while the Ringgit Malaysia is used in Malaysia. The wealthier people can donate money to the less fortunate and help build religious buildings. People who are really good at advising us on money is our bankers, experienced people and even our very own parents.

          In conclusion, money can buy us nearly everything. However, money cannot buy us happiness and health.
