How much money is enough money according to you?

@Lostpoet
How do you know a few is enough?

@swirlie I don't know I guess if I had a few million than i'd want a few million more.

@Lostpoet
Which would mean that no amount of money would ever be enough, right?

@swirlie To me a few million would be enough. But it cost a German civilian a hundreds of dollars just for a loaf of bread at the end of WWII so money isn't necessarily security.

@Lostpoet
But the concept of money was never intended to be perceived as 'security' in the first place! How could it be?

@swirlie I guess that's the way I perceive it.

@Lostpoet
Well given your own example of it costing hundreds of dollars for a loaf of bread, wouldn't that tell you how little security money really offers anyone?

@swirlie That was the point that I was trying to make.

@Lostpoet
Well if it was the point you were trying to make, then how could you perceive money as being an instrument of security which you just said that you do?

@swirlie I do perceive it as security but security that can be influenced by outside sources. A few million dollars would allow me to live a comfortable life.

@Lostpoet
...which goes back to my very first question to you, How do you know that a few is enough?
...to which you answered, "I don't know"!

@swirlie I see this going around in circles. I think a few million is enough for me to live my life and achieve my goals.

@Lostpoet
A few million? You're right. Here we go again!

@swirlie Better make it thirty million then everything is settled.

@Lostpoet
Okay, no problem. I'll pencil you in for $30 million then.

I do wish you'd make up your mind!
