For this first blog, you will write about the role that money plays in our life. Answer the two following questions with your own opinion and using a paragraph format.
a. 1. What would you do if you had a lot of money and how would this change your life?n Explain what would you do
b. Is money so important nowadays? Explain why. Provide arguments to support your position.
A) Well I will buy a lot of clothes, shoes, bags, a new computer, a big house in some nice place and give some money to my parents too because they gave me a lot so I have to compensate it and I know that it will be exciting because you can buy anything, but I will save a little bit in the bank, and I will make a restaurant or something cute to have more money. Maybe it can make my life uncomplicated, getting easier everything without working too much or complicated because you have to be careful of your “enemies”
ResponderEliminarB) It depends of the point of view of everyone because in my opinion it is really necessary to survive (food, clothe, your house, education, health and others) that you obviously always need! So for that reason it is really important because without money you will not have the necessary things and if you have children you will need more money!
A. If I had a lot of money, probably I’ll be one of those people who buy and buy and… buy! I could go shopping and buy new clothes, maybe and IPod, some shoes and bags, but I’d rather spend that money traveling to every place in the world, and stay in beautiful hotels. I think that the money would make my life easier and it would allow me to do and have everything that I never had. But I need to think that maybe the money could separate me from the people I love.
ResponderEliminarB. Well, nowadays the money is becoming more and more important, because if you have no money is almost impossible to have a good quality of life because you have to pay for food, health, for the water, clothes, even for a place to live. But on the other hand some people stay thinking that money is the least important thing in life, considering that you have love, a family and friends to support you.
A.It would change my life’s style by buying a new house, new clothes, computers, I would pay my parent’s debts for us to live more comfortable, I would establish our own family company and for sure I would save money in a bank for the future, my studies, my family and those stuff. I would give money for charity too. However, having more money wouldn’t change me inside. I would be just as I am. Enjoying my life with my family and living for God.
ResponderEliminarB.Of course money is really important nowadays, world in general lives around money. People are always worried about how to get money, how to get a new work, new house; they just study to achieve a good position in a company, but what for? Just for getting money not for becoming a different person or for helping people. The importance that the world has given to the money is the reason of many social, political and economical problems, because people give everything for being rich without thinking in consequences, to illustrate it we can think about how families are destroyed because parents work almost all day and children have to stay alone and make difficult decisions by themselves. We cannot deny that money is important to survive, but it is not that important to let it be our reason to live.
A)Well i would like buy some new car for my parents, new clothes, also buy some luxuries to me and my house, addition i will help poor people.In my life i prefer to nothing change because i love my life style, my family and friends.
ResponderEliminarB)Yes of course the money is so important nowadays because if i want or not everything revolves around the money: school, university, health,food, work, transportation..... but the most important that you must know about money it never going to give you happiness for ever so the money is important for your physical needs but not for your psychological needs
A. If I had a lot og money to spend I would divide the money in tree parts one of them would be for shopping, because I love it, I would buy clothes, shoes, purses, a car a house, and maybe I would travel to France, the second part of the money I would save it in the bank, because it is important you don´t know when you going to need it and finally the third of the money I would spend it but in personal things maybe with my family and I would donate money to charity.
ResponderEliminarB. That is not too good but nowadays the money becomes more important every day, if you don´t have money to survive you are in problems, because you need it in all the aspects, for food, clothes, health… it´s difficult but you have to remember the money is not the most important aspect in your life you don´t work for have more money every day, you work for having a better life and enjoy with the people that you love.
a) Well, the first thing I would do if I had a lot of money, I would travel around the world with my parents and brethren. If I had a lot of money, I would buy everything I want, wherever and whenever, But also welcome my parents everything they did for me and I would give them what they always wanted and might not have to spend the money in my being and my future. The money would change my life which I would not stress for money, and my family neither.
ResponderEliminarb) For some people yes, because they think that if they have money, they could change life and haven’t problems. But a lot of money corrupts the people and them away of God.
A) I think, if I had a lot of money... I would buy a lot of clothes, shoes, a car, a house and jewerly. I would help poor people, with food and clothes. I would help my parents with money. Maybe my life changes because I would have a lot of things, but only that is important is the family and if we did not have money, we do not care about it.
ResponderEliminarb) maybe, for a lot of people the money are so important. nowadays the world tell us that requires money for a good life, but this is not true. for example if you would be a poor person but if you would lived happy and with love, you probably live more comfortable than a rich person.
Well if I had a lot of money I think I would buy all the things I ever wanted but I couldn’t have…like a new car and my own house, maybe I would do some improvements to my parent’s house cause I have lived there all my life and my parents always give me all I need…also I would save some money in the bank to help my parents with my career and all the expenses in the university…I think I would buy some apartment or something like that to earn more money and not just spend it or waste it in whims…I think I would be the same cause if a buy something or not I still be me, for me the material things are not so important…I know I would like to have a lot of clothes and shoes and everything but that things are just things they don’t make me happy…
ResponderEliminarWell nowadays it is very important cause without money you cannot buy food or clothes or the things you need…if you don’t have money you can’t pay for a place to live…sadly we live in a world when the money it’s all!!! If you have it you have power!!! If you don’t have money you can’t do anything!!!! all is fault of capitalism!!!!! Long life to communism!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ResponderEliminarA) It’s true that you cannot be happy only if you have too much money, but if I did, I would first try to get the things that are necessary to live, like food, clothes and all that stuff you need to have an excellent lifestyle and I would pay debts that I or members of my family have gotten; then I would buy all those things that I’ve wanted all my life but can’t have them because they’re expensive, like expensive clothes, a car, a luxurious computer and things like that. After that, but not less important, I would help poor people, everyone says that if you help those who don’t have as much as you, you will be successful in life.
ResponderEliminarB) Money is not the most important nowadays, however it belongs to that group of things that are necessary to live in our days, it’s not about having too much money, but about having the quantity that is necessary to have a good lifestyle, in order to have food, clothes, shoes and a house where you and your family can live, the fact of having a family with enough economical sources is what will help you to be happy, but do not forget the most important: God!
If I had a lot of money, I would try to invest money to make more money. I will invest maybe in a resort, because is a project, that has many advantages in Costa Rica. And then I will donate money for people that have many needs, like orphans, or nursing home. And this will be a big change in my life, because my parents would stop to work and it will be more relax for them. And I will have a secure future, with work and without needs of worry about my life.
ResponderEliminarThe money starts to be indispensable in the life of the people, because all is around the money. The people are very materialistic, and for something you have to spend money. If you want you something, you have to pay.
A)If I had a lot of money I probably would go on a trip to Europe with Naza and buy many things, clothes, shoes, accessories and stuff!
ResponderEliminarB)I believe that money is important nowadays because it is necessary to survive, to pay bills, buy food and things we need in our daily lives. but it is clear that money can not buy happiness! is important but not essential.
A) Well, if I had a lot of money, I would change the streets built with some quality material, so that the streets are not so easily be destroyed. I would help to the people poor, so that their children get a good education and can become professionals in the future. I would do a soccer school for all children who want to be players soccer. I would like travel for the entire world, know new countries like Germany, Spain, Brazil and France.
ResponderEliminarB) Nowadays for people is very important to have money, they depend on the money to live, because without money the people can’t eat healthy. However, money is not important to be happy, because many people have much money and are unhappy because they only think about material things and not what really matters is what you have. For me, the most important in my life is family and you do not need much money to have the love of his family.
A) I would save that money in a bank, where I can earn interest, and if it were to spend, it would be to support my family, which occupy because they have given me everything I needed and a way to return the favor would be to buy things for their benefit, but if you spend it on me, would travel to anywhere in the world, in Europe most of all, that would be like my dream.
ResponderEliminarB) I think that the money is important, if some he considers it to be like that, because there are poor persons who in spite of the circumstances, have love, they have comprehension, although money is needed to eat, but it is a part of like a person although partly needs money to eat, for example, be only things that are needed, because we have idealized ourselves that we must buy anything, but this idea of the capitalism we must eliminate it of our mind.
A.Well, if I had a lot of money I would do many things. The first thing is going shopping, because I love clothes and shoes. I would buy in many stores things that before I could not buy. I really want to buy a new car, look for my perfect house and buy it. And for my parents I will buy nice presents. The second thing that I would like to do is to travel to a different country, maybe in Europe, and get to know that place very well. And the remaining money I would save it in a bank for an eventual emergency.
ResponderEliminarB.Nowadays, for some people, money is a very important thing; everything goes around money. People all the time are worried about how to get more money, to have the best things. They want to show off that they are better because they have more money, but for me, it is not important. People have to care about their families and have good relationships, not worrying about shallow things. But from another point of view, it is important to survive; we need to buy food, clothes, get a good education and acquire some those things that only with money we can get.
a. If I had a lot of money I would spend it in clothes, a beach house, a new pet, an airplane for my own, a big house with a pool in it, a restaurant, I would travel around the world, I would give a part for my family and maybe I would give a part for charity because honestly that might be the last thing I do; it would change my life because if me or my family need money for any important reason in the life, for example an expensive surgery we don’t have to be worried about it…
ResponderEliminarb. It depends because the life nowadays is very expensive, the food, the house, the clothes, to maintain the family, the study, the career and more are the cases in which money is important but also the money isn’t everything in this world and the money can’t buy happiness.
First question:
ResponderEliminarWell if I had too much money my whole lifestyle would change, I’d have a luxurious life filled of all those new things I’d buy. I’d use my money to buy a lot of clothes, shoes and other things, I’d also travel around the world with my family and visit too many places to know about their culture. I’d give money to my family too, in order to use it the way the want. I think that if I had a lot of money, my life would be so much easier.
Second question:
I think money is important in our society because it influences in each person’s life. I also think that anyway money is important because everyone needs it for living. Money influences in person’s behavior and decisions nowadays, for example, a person chooses a career in order to earn too much money and sometimes that person doesn’t care about being happy with itself.
A. If I had a lot of money I would buy everything I need to survive and things that I would like to have, then I would save the rest of my money in the bank in that way if I need it for the future I know it will be there, and if I really had a lot of money I would give half or more to charity because I do not need that much money:D
ResponderEliminarB. Yes it is. I think everyone worries too much about money instead of taking care of things that are more important than just earning money. Nowadays society teach us that if you do not have money you are nothing and some persons believe it. It is true that money is important in our daily life however we do not have to forget about things that we cannot buy with money.
A: If I had a lot of money, I not spend money on material things, I would give my tastes but I use the money for travel the world with my family and friends…also I would help poor people. My life would change in the way of life financially but it would be the person I am right now.
ResponderEliminarB: Money is not everything but it is very important because almost without you cannot live ... takes to feed, clothe, pay all that everyone has...
A- I would buy a great sound system, a jazz guitar, a piano, an electric bass. Also, I would give some part of the money to my parents for pay some things, and I will use other part to pay my career in the university. The rest of the money will be saved in the bank.
ResponderEliminarB- People believe it is and start to get worried to have many things for live a "good life", so they work a lot, but don't have time for enjoy their things. People have to learn how to live with the basics things and be happy with less instead of try to have a lot of innecesary things that will not enjoy.
a. With a lot of money probably I would use it for enjoy all different things that life offers. First I will invest in an own business, maybe like a family business and that way I would guarantee we always have a source of money, necessary to survive and use it for do what we like the most. Then I would like to travel around world knowing different places, cultures and different people. But if someday I have lot money there is no doubt that I will spent every colon to take advantage of life and do what I want to.
ResponderEliminarb. Nowadays you need money everyday and every time to move and to be someone or at least that is what more people think. But I think money is just useful to get the necessary things to survive (food, house, and clothes). Money can not buy love, does not buy happiness and for me that are important things in this life.
keyna bermudez
ResponderEliminarA. well if a had a lot of money I would gave some money to my parents , then i buy all the things that I always wanted buy new clothes for work every day, make houses around the all country in the beach, in the mountain..buy cars, travel to the most beautiful countries, help people poor and rescue animals and give them a home also I can study whatever I want and I will go live to a European country. This could change my life in many ways because I don’t have a lot of money I just a normal person so live can be more easy to me, I wouldn’t have to worry about money or pay expensive things.
B. I think nowadays the money is the most important thing you have to use in everything for food, health, travel and if we don’t have the enough money we cant do anything of those things also with the relationships a lot of women are with a men for the money no for love, although the money is not everything many people think that is the unique way to make them happy.
A: What would I having a lot of money? What would money cannot do? It will change my life in almost everything. I would buy a new life, buying the newest and coolest clothes, a house with all the luxeries and comforts I have always wanted, I could travel around the world and the most exciting places, I would buy all the things I have always dreamed of, I would give a part to the charity and help my fathers having the most comfortable life for them, or maybe I would only invest it, or keep it in a bank. But all these luxuries won't change my values that are the most important things.
ResponderEliminarB: Nowadays, money is an important and relevant fact for a better life's quality, money can give you all the amenities you would want, and it is true that it is hard to live without it, but money is not the most important fact. Like I said, money "will change life in almost everything", but not completely. What do you got with a fortune and a mansion, if you ain't got love? You can buy a house, but you can't buy a home. So, money represents an important fact, but not an indispensable one. There are things that money can't buy, and for me, there should be the most important facts in everyone's life.
a. What would you do if you had a lot of money and how would this change your life?n Explain what would you do
ResponderEliminarIf I would have a lot of money, I probably am able to found my own interior and exterior decorator’s company. I think that I would invest in found a place around the world when the children who are poor or just do not have money to can eat, play with a lot of toys and have a great place to stay for the night. I also spend a little bit on travel around the world with my family. And finally I would definitely save an important part of the money. I think that absolutely the money change your life a lot, you can buy anything, move to a new place in seconds you feel that you have the world in your hands and a lot of people affect this because they become ambitious and in seconds think that they are more than others, however I would be the same person, with the same values, just that I would have more money than before.
b. Is money so important nowadays? Explain why. Provide arguments to support your position.
I think that money is very important nowadays, because in this world exist and every people think that the rich people can do anything and that they are better than the others, for that reason the dream of hundreds and hundreds of people is be rich because they think that if you are rich you have your life done, you do not have to worry for work or invest because they also think that the money is forever and that is not true, nothing in this life is forever even us and this is when I question myself how can many people think that. Well it is obvious that money is important but I think that be rich and have money even want money is not bad, it is bad nowadays because the people are not educated for be rich, now they do not teach that when you have money you have to be the same, you have to save, you have to keep your friends because many people can become your friend just for the money and they do not teach that but I think that the most of the people have poor values and when it happens they do not survive it.
Jazmín Alas Hernández:
ResponderEliminarI. If I had a lot of money would be really exciting because I could buy anything I wanted I could travel around the world and know many different places I could buy clothes and shoes but most important I save a part of the money for my parents and pay my university.
II. For me the money is not important because maybe you have money but you don´t have health to enjoy or the family or friends to share, but most of the time people don´t think this, and the money is the reason why they work and study because they want to live better or have more things and this is because we live in a globalized world where money is the most important.
