Yes i can agree on that you need money to survive almost everything to survive costs money and that is why money should be the most important thing for everyone without that you would be possibly dead by now.
Today is the era where money is needed above all. These days are the days when you can't do almost anything without money. You want to enjoy and your friends invite you to have fun, you will be saying you don't have enough money to have fun, even education and health are affected by this, you don't have enough money to let your child to go to high school or college and don't have enough money to support your family in their maintenance in medication. So hard to live without money.
Money is like the key to all of the things in this world and if you don't have that key then you will get stuck in the room that you are currently in and you will not be able to explore and try other kind of rooms or things and that will make you realize that to be happy in this world then they need to have a money that will fund their wants and happiness.
