Love vs Money?

[NewBlackCity]

4real, r u a sucker 4 love or a paper chaser?

iam all about the cash flow.

[tequilla_boom]

LOL!

http://www.laymark.com/i/m/m186.gif < Its money ofc.

[dyne]

well your 40 what person at 40 isn't?

[NewBlackCity]

well your 40 what person at 40 isn't?

LOL who's 40..lol

MOney+Power+Respect...

[Angels Punishment]

He was giving tequilla a hard time.

I'd choose love. It makes me happier than money

[skycrapper]

LOVE!!!

Call me naive, but to me love is forever.

[Seireitou Kuchiki]

Thus with anarchy, even how hardcore it is. "Love is the most beautiful thing you could of ever given me." -V

Money is made by the government, and how corrupt it is. Love is the only thing stopping most people from being anarchist.

"No more lies, just truth." -V

[xTHHxAimiForevr]

It's true that money makes this world go round but look where that's got us.

[[-Shirion-]]

LOL who's 40..lol

MOney+Power+Respect...


Don't you mean: Money + Power = Respect?

Regardless, it is far from the truth.

Alcohol equals respect :chug:

[Sorakizu Masamune]

Most definitely love <3 But then, I am quite the sap and despise money anyway.

[tequilla_boom]

well your 40 what person at 40 isn't?

oh wow, meanie dyne T_T!

i'll STOP the drugs !!!!:suspicious:

and yeah money is honey >.<

[Gruja]

Money...

[DarkBunny]

love:D

[NewBlackCity]

Money is Honey I like That...

Love dont pay the Bills and ur lover will leave u if u can Pay ur way...

[wosaja]

well since i never got any money to begin with, i'll say love (can't believe i just said that).
cause you can have all the money in the world and still be unhappy
but when you got all the love in the world your one rich person

[dyne]

oh wow, meanie dyne T_T!

i'll STOP the drugs !!!!:suspicious:

and yeah money is honey >.<


well that explains that

[lurch]

While I am the romantic type, I will say women are after some security in their situation at the very least financially.

I personally am out to just have enough to get by on in life. I am content with the basics.
So love is my true answer, I crave that more than luxury.

[Yexley]

Depends how much money but if it's a lot then money ftw. Maybe I would change my answer when I'm like 40 but right now I don't really care about love and I really like buying stuff all the time.

[Maszrum]

I say both.

[Falariel]

LOVE

you can get tired of money and all other necessities in life, be jaded and stuff. besides, money will run out and it won't give you any contentment. whereas love, a simple life full of love is most cherished by many and is searched by all... except for all the heartless people. lol

:odd:

[Yexley]

Love fades.

[tequilla_boom]

well that explains that

lmao, dyne my public enemy numero uno hm, i don't have wrinkles yet :p

Love dies, cant be controlled, can turn someone decent into a real retard and it doesn't provide any kind of security.

Love causes- jealousy ,paranoia and loss of ambition in some cases.

[dyne]

thats not love then if you can't trust the person..if you get jealous and paranoid over the person you love how can you call that love?

no wrinkles at 40, impressive

[tequilla_boom]

yeah i wear a mask :p and you could be right there.But finding the selfless kind of love is not everyone's cup of tea.

[afrotaito]

love will always make you happy and whats the point of money if you gots no one to share it with? trust me you'd just be miserable loner or money bought friends.

so love wins. but i needs me some cash about now fo real though

[Maszrum]

I think you can love and be jealous. By loving someone you partly claim this person to be yours. (not literally of course) so it's normal you want it for yourself and sometimes don't want to share so are jealous. But yeah- being paranoid is just being paranoid.

[dyne]

there are people who get jealous from their spouses/gf,bf's talking to the opposite sex. and again i dont believe so maybe when a relantionship first starts out yea you can be jealous but if your 4-5 years into a relantionship and you're still jealous...you can't love that person or that person doesn't love you..which really isnt true love so you shouldnt really be with that person if what your after is love

[Maszrum]

I think you can be jealous even then. A little. It's not that full of hate wild jealousy that people feel at the beginning but I don't have other word to call it. And I guess it only happens in serious situations and generally when things aren't going so well and smooth. If everything is just fine then yeah. There's no place for anything else than love.

[tequilla_boom]

eh, it's still complicated stuff for milfs like myself :suspicious:

[dyne]

its good to be honest isnt it lol

[Maszrum]

Yeah, tell us something about that. xP
yea im a big retard

[tequilla_boom]

LMAO i'm still young at heart don't worry.

[dyne]

Yeah, tell us something about that. xP

yea well like ive said if not having to get up and go to work/school, listen to what people have to say and just do whatever i want is being a retard. then im happy to be one.

[Maszrum]

Awww. What a lovable retard. So what do you choose love or money?

[tequilla_boom]

lmao, i have an idea already Masz.................its the L world, i reckon.

[dyne]

i have both so the question for me would be would i give up one for the other. and yea i would give up everything for deni. nothing is more important than her.

[Ash]

I say both.

Well you bring a lot to the debate don't you.

[MCAV]

Can't money get love more easily?
You can travel to more places to find the right person.

[Maszrum]

Well you bring a lot to the debate don't you.
As much as you did.

Can't money get love more easily?
You can travel to more places to find the right person.
And you may have the point but- if you don't have money and first need to get/earn them. It takes time. I don't know if a lot of people would still want to look for love after years of hard work.

[Paragon]

The love of my family sits at the top, but money is almost as important because no one is truly happy when they're broke...or at least i'm not. You need a balance, it'd suck to be rich but unloved or loved but dead broke and unable to provide for yourself and loved ones.

[lurch]

Being jealous is one way to feel you want that person to yourself. Jealousy can interfere with trust if not kept in check. Without some trust you will just poison your relationship with comments or actions. Self confidence may be another factor why you are jealous. I mean if you think they are going to leave your ass, then that is your problem. Just saying Women want to feel wanted so a bit of jealousy is not a bad thing to let them know you care.

My random opinion on that lol

[Yexley]

I'm happy when I have money even if I'm not in a proper relationship at the time, you can still have fun with friends and have a gf without love.

[pyre-fly]

The love of my family sits at the top, but money is almost as important because no one is truly happy when they're broke...or at least i'm not. You need a balance, it'd suck to be rich but unloved or loved but dead broke and unable to provide for yourself and loved ones.

^ This.

The love of my family is the single most important thing to me so if I had to choose, I'd choose love.

[dyne]

i'd throw my family under a bus for a bag of rocks lol

[Gruja]

i'd throw my family under a bus for a bag of rocks lol

LOL:bigsmile::bigsmile:

[Yexley]

Yeah the love of my family isn't really important to me, only see them for a week or so at xmas and maybe a few weeks in summer.

[Maszrum]

I would sell my family for 10 bucks. Ok. I am exaggerating but we are not very close so such love is definitely not something I would choose over money.

[Yexley]

I'll give you $20.

[Maszrum]

Deal. I have mother, father and older brother to sell. Want me to pack them for you?

[Yexley]

Yeah that would help, 2nd class delivery is fine by me.

[lurch]

Well I have 2kids so I would say I love em and I think ...I will keep em...XD

My mom and dad really I could live without. Never really had a Loving relationship with them at all. Hell I told my mom to fuck off 3 months back and have not spoken since.

[tequilla_boom]

lol its quite the opposite for me, but that doesn't make me a sucker for love.

[[-Shirion-]]

Hmm, that is an interesting way to look at the question.

Money versus love as in a significant other, or love pertaining to your family. Even more interesting: what if you were posed the question of the love of one versus the other?

I really doubt I could decide. Most people feel their parents attribute an 'unconditional' love; I, honestly, feel that is how I feel about my fiance. I, personally, think all love should be as close to unconditional as possible. With the obvious exceptions of infidelity, abuse, etc.

[dyne]

my dad recently started saying shit like "i love you" and my bro was talking about how he says that to him a lot and its like razor blades in my ears every time i hear. its a taboo word here lol

[tequilla_boom]

lol my dad will never say something like that!

[dyne]

yea i called him a homo the first time he said it lol

[tequilla_boom]

lmao, the thing is, my dad is not really into the "display of attention" thingy >.> it's a different story for my mum though.

I can safely say that she can be really sticky when she wants to ;P >.> she is into hugging, calling you cat names and all the shit that come along with it, yeah petting too omg! *gags*

[dyne]

my moms a cow lol i dont talk to her ever

[tequilla_boom]

lmfao i bet it feels nice not having annoying parents constantly at you back.I'll go nuts and look older if that happens to me 0=

[dyne]

my dad bitches at me all the time.

we wouldnt want now would we

[tequilla_boom]

lol i just ignore people who bitches me,i.e parents or not, they get the cold shoulder attitude =)

And no i don't want to look like i'm 50 or 60 atm .Besides, I've recently turned 40, let me savor my milfing days.

[dyne]

yea he's just a douche

i knew it

[tequilla_boom]

a douche is a douche,dude and a fag remains a fag = ) just forget it and enjoy life as it ;p

[dyne]

idk if thats suppose to be a failed attempt at an riddle or if your just stoned lol

[tequilla_boom]

failed attempt at a riddle:suspicious:

and i think ill get infracted again cause i'm spamming this thread big time!!

oh and yes love is complicated, i prefer money!

[dyne]

i never do anything like that lol so it wont come from me

[Maszrum]

Cause you would have to infract yourself for all the spam you produces. And as long as I a mnot in love I prefer money. When I fall in love things start to be more complicated. >_>

[dyne]

i cant be infracted

[lurch]

Cause you would have to infract yourself for all the spam you produces.
that makes up half that activity on BE lately

[Maszrum]

that makes up half that activity on BE lately

Lol. *high five*

And Dyne I am sure you with all your awesomeness would be able to not only infract yourself but to even ban your ass. =)

[lurch]

Lol. *high five*

And Dyne I am sure you with all your awesomeness would be able to not only infract yourself but to even ban your ass. =)

He put a strike through his name already but that has nothing to do with a ban lol

[dyne]

dont talk about my ass maszrum

[Maszrum]

Or you'll do what? Beat me?

[Yexley]

Only time I can see choosing love would be if I fell in love with a gf. Not happened yet so can't really say I would choose it over money.

[dyne]

you wish

[Skirr]

Money. I want to buy things. I like buying things. I don't have much in the pro category for the other option.

[Falariel]

Love fades.

so does money. :sad:

[RsR]

neither; im not a sucker for love or money.

tried spending love, tried making money. they are not that hard to produce...

[deucezulu]

Well for me I don't like to compare the two. If it wasn't for love from my wife and family who take their time out to care for me, I wouldn't have a Diploma, Degree, and a basketball career. I've probably would of been out there on the streets.

Money, well its like my Pops said, money is not everything but you need it to survive, you have to pay the bills and you need a roof over ya head.

With Love, I think some people get it mixed up with romance, now there is nothing wrong with romance but when you're talking about love, it takes commitment, responsibilities, sacrifices, trust, communication, and most of all understanding. Without those a relationship won't last. You can't be a ass and not get a job while your spouse is trying to barely make ends meet, that's hell of stressful.

As far as jealous goes, you can have a little, it just shows the feelings you have, but if it overwhelms you, uumm your going to need to some major help because that could lead to being paranoid and that's a crazy place to be.

[ogthesamurai]

If I found love before I had much money Id find much money to fortify our love.

[NewBlackCity]

If I found love before I had much money Id find much money to fortify our love.

Dam That's Deep:ulq

[TokyoRacer]

Love doesn't exist. Money does exist. It is because of money that I am able to live. Without money, we cannot live. Like it or not, money is extremely important. You can live without love. You cannot live without money.

[deucezulu]

Love doesn't exist. Money does exist. It is because of money that I am able to live. Without money, we cannot live. Like it or not, money is extremely important. You can live without love. You cannot live without money.

Love doesn't exist huh, don't know how you came to that conclusion, but that's fine, it does not exist for you.

[He's a Mentalist]

LOVE!!!

Call me naive, but to me love is forever.

That is a sucker move.

For example, take two married people. In short, the woman divorces the husband but still loves him. She just doesn't want to be married to him any longer.

Take the money. A fool would choose love.

[Hollow_Flare]

Obviously.. in the world we live in.. money comes before everything.... with out it, you can't do anything for yourself or anyone else. Feed your family, keep your children happy during the holidays... it's sad, but we tell ourselves.. we're only doing it for a better life and some times not even for ourselves.

What people believe it in.. is what really matters anyway, the love is still there.. though you'd be lying to yourself if you think the money wasn't.

[NewBlackCity]

MOney MOney MOney Money MOney MOney MOney MOney MOney

[Wras]

MOney MOney MOney Money MOney MOney MOney MOney MOney

You seem to really love money; what use would there be for it if you didn't love it eh?

[Sotnos]

Love, money isnt hard to find, move your butt and work. Finding someone who truly loves you is more complicated.
Plus you work and make money to feed yourself, and the rest, you spend it with your love.

[jeuxaijin]

money, money, yeah, yeah.
love is a chemical imbalance, you can buy pills to get the same high :xp:

[CakeSpoon]

How much money? Scrooge McDuck level money?

A pool filled with money or love?

I'll go for the pool.

[evanescent]

Is it too much to ask for both? XD

But honestly, I think I would go for in-between. Even if I wasn't head-over-heels for a guy, but he cared for me, respected me, and had a significant amount of moolah, I'd definitely marry him. Good looks and romance would be just bonuses. :P

[hunni]

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

[HiME]

4real, r u a sucker 4 love or a paper chaser?

iam all about the cash flow.

Love doesn't exist. Money does exist. It is because of money that I am able to live. Without money, we cannot live. Like it or not, money is extremely important. You can live without love. You cannot live without money.

Shut yo dumbASS LOL. Laaaaaame

Money doesn't mean shit to me. I spend it all the time and i love it. But i've learned myself in life that it ain't SHIT. I live for happiness, and i know that anything bought with money isn't everlasting, and i know it for a fact. I spend money on clothes, makeup, ice, shoes, purses, etc. and i get lots of attention for a pretty face and nice shit, but who cares. That doesn't fill the emptiness i feel inside at times.

Maybe you should try living your life revolving around money and you'll eventually see that it means nothing in the end. You just have the nicest shit around for people to love you for your cash and ice, but not particularly for YOU. Those type of people aren't down for you, believe me.

I'll be honest, i think those that solely chose money don't know what the hell they're talking about. You must be ugly on the inside and most likely the outside because i'm pretty sure you've never felt love from a significant other or from family & friends the way i have .

And money = respect? Says who? You can have all the cash and ice in the world but I will never give that person respect if you're all about your paper. You're most likely just a little bitch lol.

Yeah i said it, get at me.:love::love:

[dyne]

such a young girl response..

romeo's coming on his white horse dont worry

[jeuxaijin]

:rollseyes: i've lived with and without money, with and without love. i'd take the $$$, no hesitation.

[HiME]

such a young girl response..

romeo's coming on his white horse dont worry

Lol no its not even like that! I dont need romeo :nono:. i'm just saying $$ isn't everything. I would choose both if i could, but that wouldn't be a fun discussion.
And it'd be nice to piss some people off here :tongue:

[dyne]

ok!

[Exploits]

Its a lost cause Dyne, it truly is.

I'm going for love though either way. Money's cool, but I've had some amazing days being broke off my ass with a girl, just as much as I have had spending money all over the place by myself, and the former still feels nicer.

[zZHasteZz]

I'd take the $$$$.

[nasandre]

I love money so I can have both!

[benassi-x]

Money pwnz love.

[r34dy2fly]

hmm.... money or love? prefer one or the other?

i think in THIS society that we live on, they kind of go hand in hand. Rarely will you see a couple together solely because they love each other wholeheartedly. To support the family, money is needed. Just how it works.

Personally, I can't really say I'd sway either way. Probably because I have commitment issues of my own in a relationship. But being far away from what I'm used to, being alone at times when everyone is together... I don't think money can fill that void. I'll say this... While life can be easier with liquid cash readily available, it does nothing to build your character.

[gongaga]

Both?

hmmm.. I find it hard to choose.
Love, probably.

[Ami]

I say both <3

[Hiroi]

Rather just have money and tons of effort free pussy, tbh.

[Kuchiki_Aizen]

Both equally

[ShadoWolf800]

Most definitely love.

The way I see the question is "Either be filthy rich, but have nobody that truly loves or cares about you, or be surrounded by love, but be poor, or homeless"

Because if someone loves you and sees you suffering, they will do their best to help you. :D

[PuppyChow]

Love?

Money?

Both are pretty hard to come by in this economy. :d

Though if I had to pick one, I would pick Love. Duh. <3

[deadp00l]

Money because in all honesty you cant live with out it....you need it for pretty much everything...love you can live without....

[NakeBenihime]

money cause with it, Asians will love you long time

[EijiTakayama]

I have just about everything I need and my parents fulfill all my wishes, as long as they're reasonable. But for various reasons I've been starved of love and attention for as long as I can remember.

So I pick LOVE.

[HiME]

money cause with it, Asians will love you long time

lol :push:

[t_kamaro]

love?
... hmm 50
money?
... 50?
i don't know.. >_<
maybe love?
who knows?

[Matthew]

In order to love a woman.... you need money....

http://www.probabilityof.com/ICON/MATH.jpg

Please don't shoot me! A girl showed this to me lol.

[NewBlackCity]

Wow Matthew. thats real Talk. Ive seen the light.

[pds]

I've seen that before but it is still epic.

[Matthew]

I've seen that before but it is still epic.

Haha, indeed it is epic.

[crisis point]

You need money to survive.

You need love to live.

Love for me.

[AshterBlank]

Eh. I'm giving up on love. It's a bunch of bullshit anyways.

Money ftw. At least I can buy shit and pretend to be happy, right?

[crisis point]

You really ok with PRETENDING to be happy?

[AshterBlank]

Of course not. Pretending is so unfufuilling.

[1kuranai1]

I think most people if offered the real choice of love or money would take money!!

and on a side note related to this topic...I don't care how rich Donald Trump is he is so crazy ass ugly I don't know how his wife can stop herself from vomiting all over him everytime he touches her....she must really love money O_O

[AshterBlank]

I don't blame her... I'd be sick every time I even thought about that wrinkled bastard touching me.

[fourwalls]

Money for me at the moment. Then when I have the money, maybe I can buy love at the nearest grocery store.

[dyne]

im sure you can buy a cheap uterus in thailand

[fourwalls]

Yeah, that too.

[Fiddler]

money too the end,your love could betray you anytime at any place.

[1kuranai1]

im sure you can buy a cheap uterus in thailand

AHAHAHAHA

[joeshmoelb]

I think in order for love to work, you need money. And in order to make the money worth it, you need love.

They go hand in hand, but you don't need the other to *have* one.

[Lancelot]

Love doesn't exist. Money does exist. It is because of money that I am able to live. Without money, we cannot live. Like it or not, money is extremely important. You can live without love. You cannot live without money.
Obviously.. in the world we live in.. money comes before everything.... with out it, you can't do anything for yourself or anyone else. Feed your family, keep your children happy during the holidays... it's sad, but we tell ourselves.. we're only doing it for a better life and some times not even for ourselves.


Very realistic approach.

[Yoruichi-hime]

Definitely, in all situations, always....money. That's the only thing that matters in life. You can't enjoy love without money, and if u sacrifice money for love than one day you're gonna hate that source of love, because you'll have realized the foolish mistake you've made.

Plus love is a very idealistic concept, i doubt it exists and if it does, few will be lucky to find it.

[dyne]

that entirely depends on where you live in the world if you're born in a "free" society you don't really require money to do anything. i mean you can work at a grocery store getting paid 8 bucks an hour and life a perfectly normal life.

it just depends what sort of life style makes you happy. if you want to be driving down the street in lamborgini, living in a beach house then yea money is definitely important. but to say its important for all people and that it fuels happiness no definitely not.

[Yoruichi-hime]

You are actually very correct. Where I live a Volkswagen Engineer or Bank Treasurer is paid a mere 15 dollars per day (whereas from what i know, in the US a simple mechanic or painter is paid 10-15 dollars per hour). University and Master is necessary for a job paid more than 400 euros per month.
So basically, being a worker in a grocery store=shitty life to say the least.

I don't aspire living a Rothschild's life.

Maybe it came out wrong. I didn't mean it fuels happiness. More like, love alone is not enough for happiness if you live a shitty life. Imagine finding the love of your life, having kids and little money : it should hurt like hell not being able to give your kids a proper education or everything they desire.
I am lucky to not have missed anything in life but I know plenty who have.
That's why I think that it is better to miss out on love than on money.

[dyne]

taking out any extreme circumstances, like living in a mudhut in africa or something, i'd say what you're saying is a little contradicting if you are with the love of your life i dont think you can be unhappy no matter how your lifestyle is. if anything it would just motivate you to be better.

[Yoruichi-hime]

I think we can't work this out because as we implied above, we live in different worlds. Without a lot of sacrifice and hard work it is impossible to have a decent life in my country, whereas where you live, even a work at the grocery store allows you to have a decent life.
(how do you intend to be happy without having the opportunity to travel a little or provide your loved ones with anything necessary+a few luxuries......being able to give is such a beautiful feeling)

So, take for instance this very plausible scenario in my country : you have an excellent studying and job opportunity in another country, say Germany, whereas "the love" is in the poor country and wants you to be with him/her (which implies you will not attend that first class college and u will not be able to take that job)? What do you chose? Money or Love?
(remember that here, working as a grocery store clerk, can barely pay for even a normal life.....ah! also public universities here suck...)

And also I believe motivation is overrated. I think it's genetic. You either have the genes to be a winner or you don't, no matter how much you desire to improve.

[BleachPrincess]

It's a tie. Both make me very happy.

[dyne]

i think it's a bit of a misconception that you need an education to make money. there are plenty of things you can do that don't require you to have a college degree or university degree and still make good money. doesn't matter what country you're in either.

and education just makes it easier to do things and you're brought up being told you need an education. the internet just makes everything much easier because now even you from where ever you live you can contact someone of the other side of the world.
