Answers
Respected chief guests, Principal sir, teachers and my friends a very good morning to all of you. Today I am here on this podium to talk about money, its importance in our lives and how pursuing money affects our lives. With your permission Mr. I would like to start my speech. But before jumping to the topic, let me share you a story which compelled me to share my thought on the topic. Last week I watched a movie in which there was a scene where a poor man who got hit by a truck, he was lying on the road, drenched in blood and was desperately calling for help. No one was helping him but fortunately, a lady walking by saw him and immediately ran towards him to help him. The injured man needed an emergency medical assistance hence needed to be taken to the hospital. There wasn’t any hospital nearby. So the lady who was helping him tried to stop the passing cars for help. After several minutes of requesting and pleading for help, she managed to stop a car. She asked the man in the car to help her to take the injured man to the hospital. On which the man in the car replied, “I don’t want my car seat covers to get stained by the blood of this beggar.” I was very sad hearing those words. Are those seat covers more valuable than someone’s life? That day I realized; for some people, money is more valuable than life. If the same accident happens in real world and if that was not a beggar but a rich business person? Do you think that man in the car could have refused for the help? Today money has become a status symbol. It has become a modern addiction. Money has surpassed the knowledge and virtue in value. Today a person with abundant money gets more respect whereas as poorly treated like herds. Money started manipulating everything around us. The greed gave birth to the corruption. Corruption, black money, money laundering are few of the problems faced by almost every country in the world and the root cause is Money. The government deals with a lot of money collected as tax from the people and this is the most likely place to find the most greedy people because of more the money more the greed. It’s never ending. Money has become the root of all evil. But at the end of the day, the question remains the same. Can money buy you happiness? Apparently, it cannot. Money can buy you all the luxurious things in the world, but it cannot give you the satisfaction and contentedness. You’ll always want more money. You cannot sleep peacefully knowing you have so much money in your house. What if they thieves come? What if somebody kidnaps family member for ransom. The money cannot even buy you the peaceful sleep then why to spend your whole life running after it?
