Health only gets worse, enjoy every minute you can.
Once your health is done money doesn't matter.
Money is overrated.
Health and friends/family are what matter.
You can make your own fun/happiness.
Money and time are two things that aren’t appreciated until you run out of them. It’s easy to say money is overrated when you have a roof over your head and food on your plate. While I would agree that riches are overrated, money is a necessity in developed countries unfortunately. Without it, you might find your friends and family forget about you… Plenty of those stories in the homeless community.
Money is good I have been middle class and not desperate for money for over 25 years.
But at 67 time is very valuable far more than money.
Also a good companion is really big on the list.
1+2 My choices are a tie for companion and time as first place. this is equating time as healthy time
3 Safe place for me and my companion to spend time together
4 Money
For me (from highest to lowest):
1. Health -- Without it, nothing else matters at all.
2. Freedom -- Not being forced to do things you don't want. Money helps. And Bitcoin!
3. Creativity/productivity -- Being able to create things and contribute to the world in some way, i.e., leaving the world in a better state than how you found it.
4. Intellect -- Being able to witness, understand and be awed by the discoveries of science and the beauty of art.
5. Friends/family/partner -- This is last on my list. Over the years I've learned that humans are selfish creatures. Good friends/family/relationships are a blessing and should be cherished, but one must be strong enough to be able to deal with loss/betrayal and move on. Want, not need. Quality over quantity.
