WEALTH

Na biwi na baccha, naa baap bada na bhaiya...

The whole thing is that sabse bada rupaiya!

(not wife, not child, not father, not brother...

The whole thing is that the most important is money)

- Old Hindi song by actor-filmmaker, Mehmood

Wealth makes people go around in a never ending pursuit. It is the driving force for everyone, and a principal priority for the ambitious. At the inaugural of ABLE - JCI India’s training program for businesspersons, the Chief Guest, K Vallabhdas shared his father’s take on five types of wealth.

He listed the first type of wealth as personal health. The second is the wealth of relationship that comes from the unquestioning love from the spouse. The third is the unconditional nurturing that we receive from our parents. The fourth is the uplifting affection that is reciprocated by our children. And the last and the least in the list is the wealth of money.

All of us run too often behind money at the cost of the four greater forms of wealth. But money will come to nought if the first four are lost. Interestingly, the four concerns cover a wider spectrum of a better world for all of us. For we cannot makes our homes better for our family, elders and the children better without ensuring an environment of health and security, a world driven by responsive and responsible actions.

Let’s BE BETTER at acquiring the wealth

that comes from loving family and health !
