Love or money...or can it be both???

How many times have you heard people say, "Love is more important than money."? 

How many times have you been called "greedy" because you dare to want to keep your hard earned money?

How many of the people who say, "Love is more important than money," actually expect their loved ones to shower them with expensive gifts, trips away, or other things to show their "love"?

Where do the "love" people think the money comes from for all their "love gifts"?

I for one am tired of hearing people be called selfish or greedy simply because instead of buying crap or spending their money on a significant other they dare to save it or *gasp* spend it on themselves? It is my experience that the "money is not important" crowd are those who get everything taken care of by mommy and daddy or the government or whoever they are dating at the time. People who want to live in the best places and have the best things without putting in the hard graft to earn it.


Yes, love is important, but money is important too. But then I guess it depends on what your definition of "love" is... and that is a topic for another day.

What do you think? ...
